I'm watching Veronica Mars and the show's description and title refers to the "morning after pill", while they mention RU-486 about 30x in the episode; This is incredibly misleading. This week's "mystery" is that someone slipped RU-486 to a pregnant girl, and she miscarried. The morning after pill doesn't have any effect if taken after you're been impregnated. From everything I've read, you'd know if you took ru-486, and it's a three pill dose, not one. You wouldn't go to a doctor because of a rash that turns out to be an allergy to the abortion pill.

Abortion Pill/RU-486 != Morning After Pill

When will the public quit being so misinformed? In fact, you'd think the show's writers would have done some research into their subject matter. WTF?
