106
A game of one-on-one is interrupted by the discovery of a woman covered in blood leaning over the body of another woman who has had a stake driven through her heart. Mac soon realises the woman was sleepwalking and tried to save the victim's life, but the case stalls because she is the closest thing they have to a witness, and she has no memory of the event. Danny and Aiden investigate the brutal murder of a pickpocket whose identity they track down using information on an experimental medical trial. Money found in the victim's underwear leads the two to another pickpocket, but there is no obvious motive for Lenny Cook's death.

I was bored and there were no regular CSI episodes on one night so I tuned into this one, figuring it couldn't be that bad. It wasn't too bad, until I saw them reviewing footage from what I think was a subway camera. It was black and white and grainy and poor quality. The woman's eye was maybe 6 pixels wide, but yet they were able to zoom in to a crystal clear picture of her eye, AND the reflection of the real murderer.
Do the writers think that the general public is full of morons? I mean there are lots of people who find reality TV really cool - but still, give us a tad bit of credit. I promptly turned the show off and now I refuse to ever watch any episode of CSI NY ever again. The very few episodes I Have seen have been poorly acted (by the guest stars) and extremely predictable.
I loved the twists with the Rachel Camden murder. As Mac states to Flack the open & shut cases are usually the ones that are the most complex. I love how this case got divided. Stella taking the actual murder and the evidence while Mac took the sleep walker. Needing to know why she did what she did and why. Then we have our pickpockets and the murder of Lenny Cook. I loved how Danny had some inside information on how pickpockets work. Watching Aiden & Danny following the evidence was like watching a chess match. From the lense implant to the money to the stuff from the rug, but that's the job. Great Episode.
A decent episode. Not as steller as I would have hoped, but a good Mac centered ep. hide show
This episode was good. I liked the whole Shakespearean aspect to it. The woman’s name is Ophelia, she was deeply affected by a death in the family, and so it caused some sort of change in her mental state and peace of mind. This was an interesting two cases, the woman who was sleepwalking and attempted to save the life of an already dead woman, and the pickpocket killed by his pickpocket leader. It wasn’t as exciting as the rest seemed to be, however it was very interesting to see how the pickpockets practiced. I also enjoyed the science they displayed in this episode (and this is coming from an English major who has a natural aversion to science, this means a lot). Well, I take back the non-exciting part back. I did rather enjoy the scene where they were catching the pickpockets. And it was interesting to see them find out where the kid got on and off, and where his pick pocket route was. The lover of the woman who died was a bit creepy. He killed her because she was ending it. I was just a little shock. You normally see a crazy woman and I thought it was cool to see that it was a crazy male lover who was jealous she was going back to her spouse. Normally it’s depicted as the female mistress. I see this episode more about the woman who was a sleepwalker, and also more about Mac. I felt like Mac had some very endearing moments, especially when he was trying to solve why she was there with the dead woman. It was nice to see the Marine barking down at the sniper in the previous episode turn into a sweet guy who is trying to do right. It was refreshing to know there isn’t just one side to Mac.
