Word Up by Willis (edit)
Sam Cooper: Captain, please. Find my daughter before she does something stupid.
Linda Lansco: Stupid I can live with. I need to know they're okay. (edit) Brass: I mean, I don't want to make this about me, but I need to know my office is not responsible.
Doc Robbins: Did you hit her over the head? (edit) Warrick: What is this Grissom? Romeo and Juliet.
Grissom: Post-Mortem photography. Memento Mori. In the nineteenth century the photo of the dead loved one was a popular keepsake. Death remembered. One last look. (edit) Grissom: Men are never as mysterious as women wish they were. (edit) Sara: You rang?
Archie: Yes, found the owner of that cell phone.
Sara: Megan.
Archie: Nope. Sheila Latham.
Sara: What is Megan's best friend's cell phone doing in the front seat of her boyfriend's van?
Archie (singing): If that's your boyfriend, if that's your boyfriend...
Sara and Archie: He wasn't last night. (edit)

When Warrick takes the pill case from the hand of the professor of photography (dead) you can clearly see her thumb move.
(edit)
The Bears, the home team in the basketball game, was wearing gold, and the visiting team was wearing white. This is a violation of basketball rules, since the home team is supposed to wear light colored uniforms, and the visitors are to wear dark ones.
(edit)
The Friend Agenda Website that Warrick and Grissom log onto hosting Ryan Lansco's Profile is most likely a fictional version of Myspace.
(edit)
Grissom imediately identifies the memory card recovered during the autopsy as being "from a camera". However, what they had was a general purpose memory card, which, in addition to cameras, can be used in phones, handhelds, computers and other electronic devices. There was no way to tell whether it was from a camera without reading its contents. Grissom usually doesn't make assumptions like that.
(edit)
Nick: So what's with the ropes, Casanova?
Born in 1725, Giacomo Girolamo Casanova failed an attempt at life in the church, and went on to become a world famous lover. He died in 1798 of a urinary tract infection. (edit) Nick: I wish I had selective amnesia. There's a lot in my past I'd like to forget.
This could be a reference to episode 2.03 Overload, when Nick admits to being abused by a last minute babysitter.
It could also be a reference to Grave Danger, in which he was buried alive.
It may also reference the episode Stalker, where he came face-to-face with a man who invaded his attic, monitored his every move, and even committed murder in order to "become" more like Nick. (edit) Memento Mori: Grissom quotes this Latin phrase, citing the practice of photographing the dead as they are laid out as a memorial. However, he mistranslates it as meaning remember the dead. A more accurate translation is remember you are mortal.
The customs surrounding memento mori have varied over the years, being expressed in art, music, literature, and, more recently, photography and other contemporary art forms. The interpretation has also varied from celebrating life by living for the moment to living in perpetual fear of death.
Both Stargate SG-1 and X-Files have featured episodes titled Memento Mori. (edit)
