  • A 12-year old girl who somewhat resembles Natalie Davis (the Miniature Killer) kills her parents as revenge for them arranging an exorcism for her (guess where the exorcism tapes were hidden: inside a flip-down ironing board!)moreless

    An exorcism is performed on a girl named Amy, her father disturbs it, and Amy ends up killing both her parents. Also, a homeless guy is found dead: Sara and Ronnie the newbie do this case. We find out that Grissom's studying Colony Collapse Disorder in bee colonies, after he sticks his head up a hole in the wall, which turned out to be filled with bees.

    For me, this episode was kind of average, but of course still fabulous (what CSI episode ISN'T fabulous?). Sara moves to swing and newbie Ronnie is introduced. It's true, what I read: Ronnie IS really annoying! "Do ants have tastebuds?" Storyline was well written, but this wasn't one of those super-fantastic episodes that you'll remember forever.moreless

    The episode was great, except that the storyline was a little off. Did the police have anything to do with the death of the derelict? Did the guy that they found Amy with know that she had killed her parents and her sister? He didn't give the impression that he even knew what was going on....maybe Amy (Satan) had him under her/his control. I can't wait to find out the significance of the bees dying. It seems that bees are going to be a running theme this season. I guess we shall see. BYW, I like Ronnie Lake. She would be a great love interest for Greg.moreless

    I found this episode to be a little confusing. With priests, sex, bums and bugs all over the place. The priest did it, no maybe another guy, no, maybe the girl, ... Anyway, I didn't really enjoy the storyline on the killings in this one, some things weren't explained or seemed cared about. I never thought the girl was possessed, just a brat. Even though the priest was innocent in the end (I think, but did he have a partner, they didn't say he didn't, just the girl working with her boyfriend), the priest kills her in the end and ends up guilty himself, too bad, after getting rid of a evil person like her, he deserves a medal.moreless

  • Another religious episode with serious nasties.

    Ick, I'd hate to have Archie's job. Looking at disturbing videos for 18 hours is not my type of walk in the park. I was wondering if the girl was actually possessed and they were going to scientifically prove it otherwise, like they did on the Discovery Channel.

    Instead, it was simply parents having problems with their kid, which by the way, locking Amy in the attic is so not the right way to deal with her. They should have done something else. I wonder what's with the bees, I don't remember them saying anything about that. Is it the weather? Episode was good. I liked it, though the ending was totally horrifying. Poor Catherine.moreless

  • a girl seemingly possessed kills her family with her 23 year old boyfriend.

    This story directly resembles killings that happened in Lethbridge Alberta Canada in april 2006. a 12 year old girl and her 23 year old boyfriend met on a vampire forums website. the only difference between the csi story and the real one is her parents were killed at home, and the real story had a little brother, whereas the csi story had a little sister. this story shocked the entire nation of canada, and was horrifying in the extreme. the similarities with this story and the csi story is alarming... i wish that the writers would try a little harder next time.moreless
