Quotes

add »
Tripp: So the babysitter said she saw someone at this window, right?. A possible peeping Tom.
Ryan: Maybe Tom was doing more than peeping.
Tripp: How can you tell?
Ryan: There's fresh tool marks from trying to get the window open.
Tripp: Maybe whoever it was left behind something more than tool marks.
Ryan: Yeah, it's a glass window, good surface for prints... maybe we'll get lucky. (edit)
Calleigh: Are you ready?
Delko: I'm not going in.
Calleigh: C'mon, it'll be good for your confidence.
Delko: No, you were right I made a rookie mistake.
Calleigh: Hey, you were the one who figured out the murder weapon, you were the one that broke the case.
Delko: (shaking head) I came back too soon.
Calleigh: Alright, I'll go this one alone, but we can't make it without you. (edit)
Dr. Mike Lasker: Their families were merely postponing the inevitable.
Horatio: Dr. Lasker, the inevitable has arrived. (edit)
Lab Tech: Doctor was smart.
Horatio: Or so he would think. (edit)
Ryan: I'll run it against the husband.
Alexx: All the parties on that block, honey, I'd run it against the entire neighborhood. (edit)

Trivia

When Delko calls up the computer file relating to the bracelet stolen from a dead cancer patient, the family name is displayed as "Clarke", but when the victim's body is exhumed, the headstone reads "Clark". (edit)

Great

"Above average"
A babysitter's parents turn up dead where they're not supposed to be. The team digs, and they find a lot of dirt... and a serial killer? Wait, where'd that come from?

"Silly"
It is getting to the point where I now watch the show just to see how many holes I can find in their silly script.
