Write a Recap »Eric didn't die, Yes, he didn't die. i would be devistated if he died hide show
Eric is rushed to the hospital as horatio watches the doctors try to revive him. thank god that he is still alive and i love the eric calligh scene. it was touching. its too bad that eric couldn't remember that his sister died though. it was sad when he found out. when i saw that the security grard shot him i thought that he was not protecting the city of Miami, i thought that he was a trador to the whole state.having kids work a diamod shop is wierd because usually kids just sit there and watch adults stuff, and not get involved.
Sort of revealing ish SPOILERS hide show
This episode is the second of a 2 parter about Clavo Cruz. The story basically continues and the episode is about them trying to hunt him down.
The whole episode ending seems to revolve around Clavo being killed and they seem to neglect everything else like what happened to the other guns and who actually broke him out etc... The story itself isn't a great one and has loads of loose ends.
The other main thing is Eric, in this episode we realise how little we actually know about the main characters. The only thing the writers can think for him to say when he wakes up is Marisol. This shows that there isn't actually a whole lot we know about the main characters. It does leave his story wide open but I'm not sure what they're going to do with it. Either he makes a full recovery or this whole thing was done to phase him out of the show. Either way it now seems like a burden to the show.
The episode is fine but problems are there such that the team didn't actually find Cruz at all. They wee always one step behind and the only reason they got him was because he turned himself in.
Eric is rushed to the hospital, where he needs to fight for his life. In the meanwhile, the CSI team starts a round-up on Clavo Cruz and Eric's killer. hide show
Oh boy. Oh boy oh boy oh boy! He's shot! In the head! He's never gonna be the same! EVER! This is so sad, really. This was a brilliant episode. Okay it was predictable that Horatio shot Clavo Cruz, but he needed to finish it. And that was it. Eric losing his memory, God it's so painful! Surprisingly, Horatio's first visit wasn't the most emotional, it was Calleigh's. She looked like she was going to burst into tears the whole episode! I felt so sorry for her; I mean, it's Eric! And after losing Speed... When she layed that cross in his hands, I was just... oooh :) I was touched. Ryan didn't know what to say, he just wanted to catch the guy who shot his colleague. It's like he couldn't really handle it since he attacked the suspect. Calleigh's approach is different and probably better physically. She's cold, she's plays the ice queen card and it's strange seeing that in Calleigh, you know, with the whole southern warmth and charm which she does possess. It's weird but it's like when she's hurt or she doesn't trust a person, she's ice cold. I think it looks more professional, but mentally and emotionally, it's not very good. She always pulls up those walls and she hides behind them. She may look like an open person, but she never let's anyone in. And Eric,.. well she didn't really open up to him often, but she knew he was that kind of person she could count on. Not like Horatio, he's more the father. Eric was so funny, sweet and... Cuban! It seems weird to her (even though she has seen a lot of deaths) that he of all people in the world, gets hurt. That's what this is about; good people also die. Very good episode. You need to see this, it's very exciting + great emotion-investigation balance. You could tell this was a special episode, they played more (sensitive) music. Feel free to cry at the end when Eric asks Horatio where Marisol is and he realizes that she was murdered.
What's going on Eric? Are you still with us? hide show
I have to say I was more interested in Eric situation and how afected the team than the crime plot this week. I also was really touched with the Eric - Cal scene at the hospital and when she put the crucifixe on his hands. I was all tears.
I’m sorry that Delko can’t remember his sister is dead, but perhaps someone could kindly point out that her spitting image is working as an ADA up in Manhattan. It might help ease the pain. It’s too early to know how this is going to play out over the rest of the season, or even the rest of the series. And in the near future, I may be talking about what a brilliant move this was on behalf of the writers, but forgive me for feeling a little ripped off at the moment. And just as an aside, how is it not a conflict of interest for the entire team to work on Eric’s case? Of course, I do get to mourn one character: Clavo. I will miss him and his back-and-forth with Horatio. Some great lines of his:
• “You know what, my friend? You are a serious player. You could learn something from this man, pop. He never gives up, and I love that about you, Caine.”
• “Lieutenant Caine — now my parade has officially been rained on.”
• “Yet another startling revelation on the obvious.”
Who can blame him for having a major beef with Horatio? H made one of Clavo’s fathers disown him, and then he made the other one disown him.
Where the whole blood diamond plot came in, I’m still not sure, but I renew my objection to CSI: Miami’s strange obsession with being an issues-centered show as of late. This was almost two episodes in one, and for me, the Clavo half worked much better, mostly because it didn’t take itself too seriously. Plus, the more serious stuff tends to invite me to explore plot holes — something I’d really rather not do.

I enjoyed this episode because it was about the characters in some ways. The look in Horatio's eyes when they were working on Eric was so heart breaking. You could see how much he cared about Eric and how much he still misses Marisol. I also have liked watching Horatio with Clavo Cruz they make such good enemies. My favorite part of the episode is at the end where Horatio is with Eric and Eric asks why his sister Marisol isn't there, the look on Horatio's face says how much he is in pain over losing Marisol and when Eric shed a tear was breaking my heart. I just wish that they would do an episode when Horatio would talk more about losing Marisol.
