劇情大意：
繼第一季第12集＜善惡之爭＞，以頗激烈的步調探討美國黑人種族問題之後，本集以平鋪直敘，溫和婉轉但直搗內心的步調再次探討相同議題。藉由某小鎮歡迎名人參訪前赫然發生的命案，探討人心面對種族問題時發自內心深處各種黑暗醜態，更鏗鏘有力地強調不論膚色，人人平等的宗旨。
以影集＜三人行＞知名，在第三季＜吾愛吾師＞中飾演主角的男星約翰里特本集中再次擔網要角，飾演調查一名小鎮員警。演出如＜吾愛吾師＞般真摯感人。劇末向黑人同事傾吐內心深處對黑人歧視的一幕尤其動人！最重要的是，以公車上堅拒讓位給白人而知名，爾後成為美國知名黑人民權運動家的蘿莎帕克斯女士親自參與演出，大大增加本劇可看性與說服力。每一細節均引人深思，感動至極…在上帝眼中人人既都平等，人又何憑什麼因膚色自命不凡，睥睨他人，進而自相鬩牆，反目成仇呢？
向來純樸平靜的小鎮，竟發生黑人慘遭繩圈勒斃的兇殺案！而著名的黑人民權運動家蘿莎‧帕克斯女士即將來訪。為了顏面問題，鎮長等人決定暫時掩蓋此事，照常進行一切歡迎與慶祝活動。這樁慘絕人寰的命案，使死者含冤不得雪，也引出人性的醜態與看似寧靜的鎮上隱而未現的種族問題。甚至對最先發現遺體的蒙妮卡，都造成前所未有的巨大衝擊…

Monica encounters Tess on the side of a dirt road on the outskirts of Aynesville, a small Southern Illinois town. Tess, holding a bloodied noose and crying, directs Monica to the body of a dead black man. Tess, in anguish, tells Monica that she has given up on earth, and is returning to heaven. In downtown Aynesville, preparations are being made for the upcoming Civil Rights Day and a visit from Rosa Parks. Lavonda, the director of the celebration, wonders why Mooney, the set builder, is no where to be found. Monica arrives and informs Tom, the sheriff, about the murder. Monica takes Tom, Lavonda, Deputy James, the Mayor and a few others to the murder site, and they identify the body as Mooney's. The group suspects that the murder was committed to ruin the celebration, and, with the exception of Tom and James, decides to keep the murder quiet. To ensure the cover up, Tom reluctantly locks Monica in a jail cell. As a black man, James protests the cover up and the abuse of Monica's civil rights. That night Monica prays for a way to help this town, despite being locked up. Though angels don't need to sleep, Monica does, and has a violent dream about Mooney's death. Monica wakes to find the cell door unlocked, and her skin black. She leaves her cell, and walks down the street, but no one seems to notice that the color of her skin has changed. At the same time, Tom and James discover that Monica is missing. The crowd gathers in the townsquare to meet the bus carrying Rosa Parks, and Monica, still unrecognized, begins to ask the members of the committee if they know where she can find Mooney, which, of course, makes them nervous. Monica returns to the dirt road, hoping to find Tess and some direction, but instead she encounters the Foleys, the men suspected of killing Mooney. Upset that Mooney's murder isn't causing a stir, they plan to kill Monica and leave the body in a more prominent location. Monica flees and, when she stumbles and starts to bleed, she realizes that she is human and becomes very afraid. With the Foleys drawing near, Monica prays that God will make her white again. When the Foleys find Monica, her skin has become white, and they leave confused. Monica weeps, beginning to comprehend her failure. Monica insists on speaking with Rosa Parks, who invites Monica to sit on the bus with her. Monica tearfully recounts her situation to an understanding Ms. Parks, and Tess appears, telling Monica that she too made a mistake by giving up on God, and that He has forgiven both of them. Tess tells Monica that she first had to confront the racism in herself before she can help this town. With newfound confidence, Monica reveals herself to Tom and James, encouraging them to be honest with each other about their own prejudices. After a heartfelt talk, the men announce the death of Mooney to the town, and Monica lays flowers on Mooney's grave resolving to thank him when she sees him for helping to open her eyes.
