In this episode of CSI: New York, the following happens. Police spots a man trying to dump a body from his car, he runs, but ends up killing himself as he lands on top of a pole, which goes through him. The team are called in to investigate. We soon learn that the female victims name is Isabelle Vaughn. During the autopsy we see that some of her organs have liquefied. This was due to a deadly liquid which she drank. They soon learn from the evidence that she ate the fruit known as "Miracle Fruit", before she died. It alters the taste buds and makes bitter foods, taste sweet. We soon learn that Isabelle was a fashion designer and was about to make the big time, with her designs. We soon learn through the evidence that Isabelle's own partner killed her. Throughout the episode, Ella, from a previous episode this season, seems to be following Mac. At the end of the episode, she attempts suicide and calls Mac; he gets there and saves her life.
Amazing episode, amazing season hide show
So the 5.11 episode was the best epi of the 5. season I think.
The story was great, exiting case, I loved the Mac and Linds trying different fruits.Anyway I love them 2 working together as well.
Then D/L .Well I must say that Danny is really enthusiastic about having a baby, I loved the scene when they go somwhere quiet and he puts his hand on Linds to feel the baby kicking.So sweet.
I was really impressed by the Mac/Stell argue. They do it pretty much in this season. Anyway love them 2 together and I cant wait for 5.12.Smacked 4eva. Whats gonna happen with the stolen flash drive and those scary FBI agents? Whats gonna happen with the coins, cause Stell broke Macs order? But most of all whats gonna happen with that crazy Ellie?
Omg I really cant wait for "Help".
CSI NY just rocks. No more words needed.
good episode.. but yet could have been stronger. hide show
revenge- screw over a business partner and die. how many times has this type of motive been used? i mean honestly. ella- the cards was weird in the first place, but to use one to spend more time with mac, and then go crazy.. anyone have a straightjacket?
stella- i hope she finds the jerk and gets even. such passion, i adore her.
d/l- the baby kick, "i'm pregnant.. help me out here"... such an excuse to get mac to do anything she wants.. and she will totally use that again. is it just me or did linds in one week, get 2 monthes bigger? i did notice in the last episode, she was wearing a scarf, covering her belly, but i honestly did not think she was that big. kudos to the food experiment.. she is always doing experiments. she's a lot of fun.
flack- king of the one liners. angell- thank goodness shes so tough.
adam- so much fun.. poor high five.. ick.
doc- doc always saves the day.
mac- oh my gosh i hope he doesn't get involved with ella, can we say, whack job?
Good acting with some interesting props, but sloppy on the science. hide show
I enjoy the actors in the show, but the plot line needs some serious work.
The good looking, successful Thai business woman gets to take the fall...as if we didn't see THAT coming.
I know some "liberties" get taken with the science, but this one was ridiculous. The pH of the green mystery cocktail should have been about 13, not 14. Doesn't seem like a big difference until one realizes that it represents a difference of a factor of 10. In the real world, 90% inaccuracy would get them shut down.
There is no way possible to match the sodium hydroxide back to the source, unless it had a radioactive marker or something. DNA links DNA, not chemical to chemical. The concentration in the body would have changed it as well, so the "purity" factor is moot.
While on patrol late one night, two police officers spot a man attempting to dump the body of a young woman. The police pursue the man and in the process of attempting to escape, the man dies. Meanwhile, Stella takes drastic measures to crack a case. hide show
This season of "CSI: NY" has seen a few cast members gives their best performances of the series. Previously Carmine Giovinazzo was in top form, in this episode, it's Gary Sinise who takes the spotlight. Giving a terrific performance from start to finish. The third installment of the "CSI" franchise is really beginiing to show that it is as good as its counterparts. This episode is a fine example of that with a well written script that hooks the viewer right away and compelling (as well as plausible) plot twists. I will definitely be tuning in next year and beyond.
