705
Grissom and Sara may be secret lovers, but they still find ways to surprise each other like when their religious beliefs surface when two nuns find a body of a woman crucified on a makeshift cross. The woman was found in a church where the priest may be a man of sin instead of a man of God.

If you're really big fans of CSI and know well how they(the CSI writers) develope the storylines, you'd probably be able to pick out the suspect without having to see the ending of this episode. (Actually, it is not difficult to say that the suspect boils down to either the priest or the car salesman. And the priest confessed he killed her, but it was not the right time to end the show. It was too early.) And one thing that confused me was the young nun. She did nothing, but she kept appearing on the screen until she falsely confessed the murder in order to protect the priest with these worried looks, which made me think she did something. By the way, Sara's theory on religion kinda surprised me. She did say "Sometimes, I think we made up God just to have someone to blame for our mistakes." I am not a Catholic or anything, but I never thought about God the way she did. I am not criticizing her opinion, but I guess it indicates her cool-headed(?) personality. In spite of the plain storyline, I liked the background music in this episode. The choir music kinda calmed me down and it went well with the tragic ending where the great friendship between the three people was torn apart. Feels like the music is still lingering on in my mind.
Investigating a murder on a crucifix in a church has Sara and Grissom sharing their opinion about religion... hide show
Nothing much happen during the forty five minutes of the episodes … The team is investigating a case where a woman is strangled with a rosary and was found dead on a crucifix in a church and the priest of the church is among the suspects. Working on this case together made Sara and Grissom share their opinion about religion and we some character development in the Grissom-Sara relationship. It turns out the woman was murdered because of a love triangle; the man she was with found out that she was leaving him for his best friend who was also a priest.
Nothing really happen. hide show
I found this episode pretty boring after last weeks. Look at Greg’s face…. I sorta knew that Greg's face was going to be like that. Beacause it happen at the end of season 3. It was also nice for Catherine to talk to Greg, that was very thoughtful of her. // I haven't watched the first two episode of this season, i know Sam die, but didn't know how, but it's cool of catherine to light a candle for her father.
Any way I love Sarah and Grisom scene they are so cool!!! did i hear Grisom say to Sarah "Dear". hehehe!!! love it!!! He did it so subtly!!! it took me a wee while and needed to asked my family (who was watching too) whether he say "dear", and checked it online too. LOVE IT!!! MORE of GSR!!!!
Wasn’t surprise to realize who the father of the baby is from, well to me it wasn’t a surprise, I little too predictable for me, any way.
Who would want to crucify someone in a church? The same person who would strangle someone with a rosary. hide show
i just saw Double Cross on the internet (since it's gonna take forever for Season 7 to get here) and it was really interesting to see another episode set in the church. I wouldn't say that the story line was the greatest, but the script was very well-written how it touches the notion of a 'higher power', as Sara called it. The note-worthy "religious" conversations in the show i could remember so far are from the last scenes of "Altar Boys" back in Season 2, and "Harvest" in Season 5. Well for one, I never saw Jesus' death in a very forensic manner. I didn't even consider that he died of suffocation. But D-Rob's explanation makes sense. Of course, it must be very difficult to breath when your body is forced in that position. I didn't even know there is a theology on resurrection and crucifixion. This episode certainly brings out a lot of religious issues like sin, and celibacy. Issues that are controversial and touchy in MY culture, yet it is intellectually stimulating to listen to how some characters view them.
Who say's you can't learn anything from this show??!
Character wise, it was really heartening to see Catherine light up a candle for Sam in the church(though i'm not really sure if she should be doing that in a crime scene...) And, Grissom casually calling Sara "Dear" is really sweet. =)
Overall, this episode is meaningful for me, someone raised in a very religion-oriented and conservative culture. **runs off to watch the rest of Season7 before it gets deleted online =p**
Good Show with pretty standard CSI stuff...but (as always) nice to watch hide show
It is really a nice episode, with all the stuff we love about this show... looking foward to the moment the secret affair will come out:-))
But there is one thing that annoys me lately... there are more and more scenes in which some body of the team finds pieces of evidence at a crime scene and bags it WITHOUT taking a picture before hand...may sound petty-minded but with a show that is so proud on details...nice one anyway...cheers
