Oliver (Ewan McGregor) is an illustrator with a history of failed relationships. Growing up, he spent much of his time with his eccentric mother, Georgia (Mary Page Keller), while his father, Hal (Christopher Plummer), supported the arts as the curator of a local museum. Though Oliver's parents never divorced, as a young boy he always sensed a distance between them -- a distance, Oliver discovers following his mother's death years later, that resulted from the fact that his father had lived most of his life as a closeted homosexual. With his wife gone and his son grown up, 75-year-old Hal decides to finally embrace his sexuality and takes a young boyfriend (Goran Visnjic). When Hal's health takes a turn for the worse, Oliver steps up to care for him while recalling quiet conversations and eventful trips to the museum with his unpredictable mother -- a dyed-in-the-wool eccentric. Gradually, Oliver begins to see his father in a whole new light. Later, Oliver falls for pretty French actress Anna (Mélanie Laurent) after a chance meeting at a costume party. The more intimate Oliver and Anna become, the more they both realize they share one defining character flaw -- the moment any relationship turns serious, they run away. For Oliver it means shutting himself in and obsessing over his work; for Anna it's as easy as checking into another empty hotel room in yet another strange city -- one of the perks, as it were, of having an itinerant job. After moving in together, the dysfunctional couple realizes that overcoming their hard-wired relationship issues is more difficult than either of them expected. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Now, the Rascals have returned to Lake City to be the pallbearers at Coach Billy's funeral. Will their reunion help to heal the wounds that have festered all these years, or will the sight of those familiar faces simply take the "Bama Rascals back to a place they need to leave behind in order to truly grow. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Lourdes Benedicto makes her first series appearance as new pediatrics intern Rena Trujillo. The episode's pre-eminent crisis occurs at the site of a commuter-train accident, where Carter (Noah Wyle) and Kovac (Goran Visnjic) are forced to extreme measures to save the life of trapped firefighter Larkin (Jeffrey Dean Morgan). The doctors also try to rescue a woman (Stacy Haiduk) who, though impaled by a shard of medal, is more concerned about the health of her son. Likewise at the scene of the accident, Corday (Alex Kingston) begins to go into contractions; and even psychiatrist Legaspi (Elizabeth Mitchell) makes an appearance when the person who caused the crash is located. Finally, an ongoing story arc is wrapped up as the dying Bishop Stewart (John Cromwell) tries to assuage Kovac's (Goran Visnjic) guilt over "deserting" his family during the Balkan wars. Advertised as ER's 150th episode, "The Crossing" is number 151 in the current syndication package. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

As Angel (David Boreanaz) makes up his mind to protect rather than kill the unborn child he sired with Darla (Julie Benz), flashbacks chronicle the enjoyment the former lovers derived from killing the wife and family of Holtz (Keith Szarabajka). Back in the present, Holtz materializes -- the result of a pact with the demon Sahjhan (Jack Conley) to allow the vampire-hunter to travel through time and once again pursue Angel just when he's at his most vulnerable. Meanwhile, Lilah Morgan (Stephanie Romanov) learns of Darla's pregnancy thanks to the surveillance equipment Gavin Park (Daniel Dae Kim) secretly installed in Angel's hotel. As Wolfram & Hart mobilizes to attack Angel and Darla, the gang sneak into a hospital and find out that Darla's child is both human and male. A large group of vampires arrives -- cultists who want to worship the unborn baby but kill everyone else, including his mother. The gang escape and head back to the hotel to grab some things and hit the road, unaware that Holtz is waiting inside for Angel. Just then, Darla goes into labor in earnest. Originally broadcast November 12, 2001, on the WB network, "Quickening" marked season three, episode eight of the supernatural comedy drama. The second installment in a four-part sequence, the story line continues in "Lullaby." ~ Brian J. Dillard, Rovi

Jimmy Smits returned to the big screen after a career-reviving stint on the TV series NYPD Blue with this emotional drama about the difficult relationship between a father and his sons. Smits plays Arturo Ortega, a man with lifelong dreams of being a contender in professional boxing. While Arturo had the knowledge, drive, and ambition to be a champ, his career proved short-lived, and, after a brief fling with success, he's a forgotten man. However, Arturo has instilled his passion for boxing in his three sons, who grow up learning the fine art of prizefighting. All three boys begin competing in the ring, with Arturo as their manager and coach, but Johnny (Jon Seda) quickly shows so much promise that other managers and promoters want to take over his contract and put him on the fast track to the championship. Arturo feels betrayed when Johnny wants to work with another manager, while his other two sons resent Johnny for turning his back on his father and wish Arturo had the same belief in their talents in the ring. The debut feature from director Carlos Avila and screenwriter Phil Berger, Price of Glory also features Maria Del Mar, Ron Perlman, Paul Rodriguez, and Clifton Collins Jr.. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
