Emily Longeretta SPOILER ALERT: This post contains spoilers for “Life Is a Highway,” the eighth episode of “The Girls on the Bus” Season 1, now streaming on Max. When Rina Mimoun first produced an episode of television about abortion, she had no idea she’d be doing the same thing more than two decades later. “The Girls on the Bus” showrunner, who worked with Greg Berlanti on the “very special episode” of “Everwood” about women’s rights in 2001, did just that with the eighth episode of the Max series, which debuted on Thursday.
The episode picked up right where they last left off: Sadie (Melissa Benoist) ordered abortion pills to be delivered to her California hotel while on the campaign trail; when they didn’t arrive in time, she was stuck, as the next state on the trip was Missouri — where abortion is illegal. After telling the other women about her dilemma in the beginning of Thursday’s episode, she also shared that the doctor could send the pills to a P.O. box in Illinois, four hours away.
Kimberlyn (Christina Elmore), the conservative reporter in the group, was the only one with a valid drivers license and offered to drive her, much to the group’s surprise. “I might not agree with the choice but it doesn’t mean that I can’t be there for my friend,” she told her. In an exclusive interview, Mimoun and Benoist open up about the pivotal storyline, how it was different from telling the story in 2001 and the importance of normalizing the situation.
