Notes

add »
Andy Garcia was offered the role of Mac Taylor but didn't take it. (edit)
The Producers had written a death penalty scene not knowing that they would have to take it out because New York does not have the death penalty. (edit)
The song in the teaser is Hung Up by Madonna. (edit)
The opening song is the same one used in the previous CSI: Miami episode. (edit)
The introduction for this episode aired as the CSI: Miami episode Felony Flight. (edit)

Quotes

add »
Mac: Doctor, you're the only point of intersection between killer and victim. Now either you're an accomplice, or you were duped. (edit)
Stella: Are you this hot on every case?
Horatio: Well, I made a promise to an eight-year-old boy and I'm not gonna let him down.
Stella: Say no more. (edit)
Stella: Tiffany's now you're talking my language.
Mac: You can tell from a map?
Stella: I can tell from the moon. I love those little blue boxes. (edit)
(Big Al just gave a great description of the pony tail man from Lydia's murder)
Horatio: You have an amazing memory.
Al: I worked security, dawg. It's my job to remember faces.
Stella: well that's great, cause I need every detail.
Horatio: That's right, dawg.
(edit)
Horatio: Last thing Darius said in Miami, he was coming to New York to make things right.
Stella: (Looking at the body of Alexa) Think he has?
Mac: Not even close. (edit)

Trivia

add »
This second time working with the New York team gives Horatio the distinction of working out of both New York Crimelabs. He worked out of the original in the premiere MIA/NYC NON-STOP & the new lab this time. This is also the only time he worked with Lindsay Monroe. In the former episode, he worked with Aiden Burn. (edit)
Just like in the CSI MIAMI episode MIA/NYC NONSTOP Caine made a promise to someone to find the killer of someone close to them. (edit)
Goof : When Mac finds the Metrocard, it is an old one, from the time that they first came out about 9 years ago. Current metrocards are a yellowish-gold color and there is only the MTA symbol on it, not the letters MTA. (edit)
Goof: Watch closely the scene near the end where Darius is banging on the Endecott's door and talking to Sarah. The upper part of the door is made of patterned red glass. Although you can't see Darius clearly, his mouth is framed perfectly in one of the prisms. He says "I want you to know who I am," but his mouth keeps moving after that sentence, even though there's no more dialogue until the next shot which is a close up of him. (edit)
Goof: In the last scene, Mac tells Darius that he doesn't pity him for having killed 12 people in the last 72 hours. Let's see, (in order) there was the pilot, co-pilot, at least 1 U.S. Marshall, the 4 kids in the Mustang, the two girls at the sorrority house, the driver of the other car, Alexa, her 4 friends, and the security guard at the Endecott mansion. Unless my math is wrong, that's 16. (edit)
