  • All new season of CSI. Boring.

    6.0
    "Fair"

    Danny Cannon and Anthony E.Zuiker wrote this episode and directed by Richard J.Lewis. Two couples meet in a bar and one of the couples is murdered. When a second couple is murdered in a similar fashion the team suspects a pair of serial killers are on the loose. The case is complicated by leaks to the press and a judge reluctant to issue a warrant. Catherine gets some troubling news about her father's murder trial. The first-part of special episode. Personally, this is not the best episode so far. So I give this episode 6.0 out of 10. Can be better.moreless

    A house keeping found woman dead. Believed that the victim allowed person to slit her own throat. Husband was also killed and found his body in his car. Another couple found except this husband was found in ice box. Found the suspected people. Learned that the woman did all of the killing while her husband was just an acessory to murder. Some one else got to them first and killed them. The man asked the other married man if he really loved his wife. They gave the other couples a choice they thought, but then only killed the husband when finished.moreless

    I'm so glad that I finally got a chance to watch "Assume Nothing", If only I got to watch it before "All For Our Country", I would have loved it even more.

    The case was very interesting, not as much Sara as I would have liked but lots of Grissom, and a few funny Grissom scenes.

    I couldn't stop laughing at the way Gissom was gawking & drooling at the dancer who was hitting on him, he couldn't take his eyes off her. lol.

    I was surprised at how careless Nick was though & how he told someone who he used to play baseball in college with about the case while they were still investigating.

    There was a great Warrick & Cath moment after Sam Braun's case was thrown out of court because last season, Cath used the lab & the unknown sample of blood for a paternity test to see if Sam was her father or not.


    I would say I can't wait for part 2 but, alas, I've already watched it.

    part one of two.

    the team's on a case where a couple gets murdered. they think another couple escaped getting killed. but when a new man and woman are found murdered, the 'escaped' couple is soon the suspect.

    Nick made a blunder when searching for the murderers escape route; he met his old friend that works at the hotel and they talk. the information he gave ended up on the news.

    overall a good episode with suspence which makes you eager for the next episode. especially at the end when their suspects aren't 'able to defend themselves'moreless

    • Grissom's line before the opening sequence is "huh". Edit
    • Grissom says the title Assume Nothing in this episode. Edit
    • Goof: While the man was getting ice out of the machine he glances in it quickly, continues to fill his bucket. But seconds later he looks in it again and it is easy to see the body is visible and so is the blood, then he freaks. He should have reacted to it the first time he looked inside. Edit

    • Brass: We got a problem ... Somebody got to our killers before we did. Edit
    • Catherine: Funny, doesn't look like a doghouse. Nick: Grissom ratted me out, huh? Catherine: Um, no, you ratted yourself out. Hey, Nick, I know you're proud of what you do. You're good at what you do, and you want people to know what you do, but once you open your mouth, it's all over 'cause what we say ends up in the news. Nick: I guess I'm learning that the hard way, huh? Edit

    • Nick: She was murdered in the room closest to the exit. Murder Central. The term "Murder Central" was first used in the Season 2 episode "Organ Grinder." In this episode, Nick doesn't know what 'murder central' is and gets mocked for it, but later Grissom tells him. Edit
    • The pay-per-view movie that witness in hotel ordered is "Armaget-it-on", and Brass first thinks its the 1998 film Armageddon, which was produced by executive producer Jerry Bruckheimer. Edit
