    I really liked the interaction between Greg and Grissom in this episode. That girlfriend aka Sara of course sure had done wonders for Grissom. Anyway, back to the episode speaking of Sara and Grissom it was a nice little scene they had with the limo. It's good to have scenes where they are working together and not all about their relationship. Not that I don't love those scenes because I do lots and lots and lots etc. Moving on, I thought Greg did really well dealing with Mrs. James. It was awesome that he stood up for himself. I was all go Greg. Oh and must add, like Sara's hat. I am glad this was a lighter episode after last weeks episode (though I completely love last weeks). Brass is awesome in this episode. Nick in between bad haircuts,nice Drops. I believe that's all I have to say for this episode.moreless

    Greg is having quite a season. In this episode we see a new Greg, a more serious Greg that the lab-rat we know and love. The killing of Demitris James really has him shaken and just as he was bouncing back, his brother is a suspect in a murder investigation! Poor Greg can't catch a break! And to make matters worse he is not only taken off the case, but is being hounded by Mrs. James as having something agianst her family and him 'owing them.' Greg is fed up too, you can tell. He wants to put it all behind him and it just isn't in the cards to let him. Poor guy, he still feels super guilty about it, even though I think he's still grappling with his decison. I think he felt obligated to go easy on the brother.moreless

  • The return of Demetrius James

    One limo involved in a shooting & the draggin death of a girl.

    I felt so bad for Warrick having to tell that mother about her daughter, but at least he got the call advising that the girl had the wrong ID on her. I was worried they might have another law suit on their hands.

    It was interesting to see the dynamic between Greg & Mrs. James. I was glad Greg got to say the things he said to her. She totally deserved it & you could tell from the look on her face that she knew he was right.

    I can't wait for next week & another peek into the world of the miniture killer.moreless

  • A return to the Demetrius James arc, another tough one for Greg, and we saw Hodges in the field!

    I have to say, this one got better as it went along. I wasn't really into it at the start, but I got involved fast. I loved the way the seemingly separate cases tied together eventually.

    It was another tough one for Greg, and we got to see some more character development for him. On the other hand, in my opinion there was too much Sofia and not enough of Catherine or Warrick, and even less of Sara. It was a classic case of developing minor characters, only to neglect major ones. Still, I enjoyed the storyline, the dynamic between Catherine and Sofia, and the Brass we know and love.

    Overall, great episode.moreless

    I really liked this episode. Lots of drama, guns, blood, flashbacks, screaming....wine throwing. Not much GSR, but the banter was cute. Loved the Greg Drama. I was glad there wasn't a huge fight between him and the James family. What the mother said about her son and how he was all she had left, seemed to turn it around a bit. I was proud of Greg for wanting the DA to go easy on the brother. He and Grissom shared a touching moment. What was with Hodges in the field? Gonna pull a Sanders on us there? Guess not. We got plenty of Sofia in this episode so I was happy. She and Catherine seem to be friends and the talk about the napkin rose was fun. I was so shocked about the whole 'throwing wine' at Sofia I felt so sorry for her! Though I don't like him, the undersheriff was right about her. She does keep her cool. And yes he did look like fresh meat. LOL. I hope we get more Sofia as time comes. Can't wait for the rerun!moreless
