    One crime, two confession. This is the CSI we all like!! hide show

    We must admit, that this is one very special and one very GOOD episode. OMG! I didn't expect this episode to be so interesting. This is so far one of the best episode in this SERIES. This episode is good for several reasons:
    1) The 12 years old Hannah, her confession sounds real. Everythings she said are match to the crime. Making the CSIs confused. 2) The good plot. The story is just good from the beginning to the end. You can hardly find this good episode in this series.
    3) Jorja Fox. She is a very good actor and she prove it in this episode.

    This is my favourite episode so far in this series. CSI is getting better and I love CSI very much!!

    This is a great reason why CSI is one of the best Dramas on TV. It keeps it's audience on its toes with episodes like this, where the bad guy comes out in the end. hide show

    This episode hits everyone of my points for being a great drama. It has great watchablity. I've viewed it a number of times and unlike most crime or medical dramas, it does not lose watchability after the first viewing. That is the number one problem with medical and crime shows, they lose watchability after the first viewing. This is one of those episodes you should download and keep. The main villan, a little girl, is both likeable and interesting. The story unfolds at the right pace and for a first view will keep you guessing. An outstanding episode that should be rated as one of the best of the series.

    It is a very good episode for the fact there is no Grissom or Greg or even Brass 12 yr old girl confesses to a crime her brother was on trail for but who did it ? hide show

    I thought this episode was really good considoring it didnt have some of the charecters that make the show so amazing and the girl who played Hannah did her role so well and the last bit when she was talking to Sara was pretty creepy but the whole plotline of making you wonder who commited the murder because evidence points to either of them keeps you guessing till the end and everthing was just amazing. The way the csi where going between both suspects was also amazingly cool CSI still keeping a great standard even after 7 full seasons.

    One of the best CSI episodes i've seen hide show

    Defentaly one of the best CSI episodes i have ever seen meaning Miami, New York and Las Vegas.
    Brilliantly smart girl, not to evil that one; however i do have one problem with her plan...
    why after she fell down the stairs did she move her, because it would have been seen as a prank and wouldn't have gone any further, since she was wearing gloves so what was the point? did i miss somthing.
    But anyway a brilliant episode with just a few errors made (not the plan (other things mentioned in the episode notes)).
    I really did love the episode because it was just just so clever.

    A great who-dunnit? episode. hide show

    This episode really kept me thinking the entire way. I could not figured out who killed Stacy, the popular high-school student. I thought it was Hannah the entire time, but I could never figure out if I was right. This episode made me smile to myself because just two days before I watched it, I was in my science class and we were doing an experiment with Sodium Hydroxide and hydrochloric acid. One of my favorite parts of the whole episode were the last scenes with Sara and Hannah. Hannah seemed so composed and that's when I realized she didn't kill Stacy, Marvin did. And then we Hannah whispered the truth into Sara's ear I knew I was right.

    Nick: Darcy, why don't you put those headphones back on?
    Darcy: Like I didn't hear what you just said. (Warrick smirks) []
  • Sara: I bet you really liked high school.
    Nick: Yeah playin' football, chasin' girls, books when I wanted to learn somethin', what's not to like?

    Nick: Hey.

More Quotes
  • Mandy mentions the video game Grand Theft Auto in this episode.

    Grand Theft Auto is a video game in which you are a thug/gangster/hustler basically, a criminal. You steal cars, run drugs, steal money, murder people, amoung other things. []
  • Hannah's mother reports her IQ at 177. IQ stands for Intelligence Quotient, and is determined by a written test. Average IQ is 100, a person is considered retarded at 75 and a person is considered genius at 130. Super geniuses like Steven Hawking have 200+. The test is supposed to measure a person's capacity for learning and the result should not greatly alter over time, baring extraordinary events. However, the IQ test is debated because although many people with high IQs excel in academic areas, not all do. []
  • Hodges: Does that make Doogie Howserette our killer?
    Nick: No.

    Hodges is obviously referring to the Doogie Howser character on the TV series, Doogie Howser, M.D., which is about an exceptionally intelligent young man who was able to become a doctor at a very young age. []
