CSI: Sin City Blue's

The return of CSI after a month holiday break, was jam packed with cases. It was amazing how they even had time for everyone to have lines in that one episode. (Ahem Hodges got only about one line) However they made up for it with a keeps you guessing plotline and interesting forensic technique, the things the show were originally based on. Oh and surprisingly the crimes didnt end up mysteriously connecting this week....haha.

The Case: The Dr. Jekyl storyline unfolded more this week when the body of a young latino boy was found in a dumpster along with several organs. For a second after the organs and the trash runner boy led Langston/Nick back to the low budget pharmacy Dr. Jekyl looked closer than anyone thought. The doctor was introduced among bone-chilling music and a less than appealing scenery. Only thing that was missing from that seemingly obvious picture was a blood soaked jacket and an operating table. While investigating a backroom the CSI's discover blood in the crack between the tiles covered with new cement, the doctors secret operating room comes under new light. Langston is positive that this doctor who is working he claims to protect his people from the horrors of health care, is Dr. Jekyl. Later though the whole case came out to be just a medical mistake for a man who isnt used to making them. This whole story did reflect the nasty side to health care based on the fact that it doesnt apply to all of those who may be sick or dying while still trying to make an honest living. While all of this was going on in a one hour procedural drama, another case of two gorgeous women dying in a las vegas hotel took Greg and Catherine by surprise. Maybe because one of these women was found in a box spring mattress and the other half naked in the hallway. One of the things about this case was the odd career of the actuary....what is an actuary? There was one in the beginning of the episode and the one at the end who ended up killing both of the pretty ladies for running a costly scam on him. Crazily this actuary actually tried to justify murder of human beings (As catherine pointed out) by spouting statistics. Along with being the weirdest this case, had the coolest forensic technique. Literally at one point Catherine painted the first victim a dark blue color after she was put in some kind of makeshift oven. I have no idea what it did...even now but that doesnt mean it wasnt awesome. Also somehow with perfect calculation Greg and Catherine sawed into a wall and through a pipe to find a sparkly dress that was flushed by the head actuary hancho. Which by the way seems like impossible to do and costly for the crime lab as well. As far as the whole variety of cases last night.....it left me a little overwhelmed as you can tell by the whole story Ive written right here.

The Characters: There are episodes every season of three kinds. The first kind is one where the characters take reign with possibly a comedic storyline in play in the background. The second is one where the case demands all of the time with only the occasional character line and the third is of the lab rat variety haha. There is not much to report on character wise on this episode being that it is of the second kind variety. However when Wendy asks that Ray give her a sample of his DNA to exclude it from a sample taken, he turns almost hostile. Of course its fair to assume that something can be determined from his family on AFIS or his genetic anger problem. Though Wendy is such a sweetheart she stands there looking so dumbfounded afterward. No doubt (prediction alert) that the very situation will go in a report only of something to be discovered by someone later. Plus in the last couple of episodes Nick has had the cool line that happens right before the theme song. Which is pretty cool considering he goes easy on the cheese factor cough Horatio Caine cough could learn a thing or two....or a million. While there wasnt much of my favorite lab tech at all, Wendy my second fav had an amazing episode where I first saw the rest of the teams relations with her (im used to just seeing the wedges relation.) This is good news for her character who we dont see enough of. Other than these things there really wasnt much happening as far as characters go.

Favorite Parts of the Episode:

Nicks Line!: Dr. Frankenstein had Igor maybe Dr. Jekyl has this guy. hahaha epic.

Ray Flipping out: Interesting character plot twist!

Health Care mention: Is an episode of CSI what some people need to see, to convince them that health care reform may be a necessary evil?

Blue Person Technique: I have no idea what that did me and my bro were too busy exchanging smurf and avatar jokes.

Actuaries: Being an analytical a-hole is a profession? apparently so.

Dress in Pipe: Impossible or just a writers last resort. I mean who puts shoes in a vent?

Wendy: Im glad we see more of her now.
