I saw the finale last night for the first time, though I did miss a few bits during. I read on the Season 5 thread that 2 girls were shot at the beginning, Didn't know that. (Perhaps one of those Tarentino things, like Kill Bill) And the girl who was smirking at the end. Perhaps she was thinking of how she'd get back at Nick when she was out and that plays out tonight?
My favorite line was from Brass. He (incorrectly) tells her how she killed her husband and she denies saying that it's the craziest thing she ever heard. And he tells her "It wouldn't even make my top ten."
As for the above questions, I haven't seen that episode since it first aired so I forget.
Grissom and Archie are on the track of Gordon's possible accomplice, that's this season's underlying thread.
Warrick blindsides Catherine when it's noticed that he's wearing a wedding ring, and he is indeed married. Warrick notices how Catherine has treated this development in an aloof manner, and Catherine comes clean with her flirtatious attraction to him (she called it a fantasy of sorts) has come to a close with his marriage.
Nick still gets the heebie-jeebies with bugs as a side-effect of his traumatic experience in last season's finale.
Sarah calls Eric a cannibal after getting some human liquified remains explode in his face. Ick.
She is Sofia Curtis (Louise Lombard), who was running the swing shift until Ecklie got his promotion to running the entire CSI division last season, and then Ecklie made Catherine the swing shift supervisor, and basically "demoted" Sofia to working with Grissom on the late shift, which caused some tension amongst the crew. The actress worked on the show last season, but had to conceal her pregnancy during filming of her later episodes. Now she looks really fit, definitely lost the pregnancy pounds.
I didn't get how she is now a detective, but I happened to be doing a little surfing online, with CSI playing in the background for a little bit early in the episode, so if they explained her new role, I missed it.
I wasn't paying as much attention to that part as I should have been, either, but I gather that she was a cop waiting for her gold shield but office politics somehow got her shunted into the CSI lab. She evidently left Las Vegas and made detective somewhere else, then came back when a position opened up. I gather her mother is either an influential politico or a high-ranking police officer/exec (shades of Holly Gribbs from the pilot) and Curtis may have been the victim of a little political payback over something her mother did.
CSI is one great show! I loved the Season premier. And I have to say, the Cannibal part was halarious!! That and: the trunk turns into a crock pot and Car Condom. lol
Who else loves the storyline between Catherine and Warrick?
The wife and I both were saying "Why in the hell doesn't Greg have a shield on?" when he was messing with the goo in the first place. Then the goo jumped up and landed. I thought it was funny when Greg says "Grissom would have tasted it first."
I liked the bit between Katherine and Warick. I knew he got married because of what happened to Nick but I wonder how long is going to last.
Is there a place (or a kind poster) that can give me a break down of the episode, especially the ending. CSI did it again - it lost my interest but I still want to know what happens, thanks.
No. She was on day shift under Ecklie then Ecklie got the promotion and she became the acting supervisor for the day shift. When Ecklie shifted everybody around, Curtis got demoted to night shift under Grissom, the swing shift supervisor was promoted to the day shift supervisor and Catherine got the swing shift.
Also when Archie says to Grissom do you want to hear what Nick recorded on the tape he says NO. Grissom knows what he said because he read his lips well he was in the box.
