CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

Catherine: I re-read the backgrounds of Millander's victims. I think that he slipped up. You know how every victim reads the suicide note "I'd like to say 'I love you' to my mother"? Well, Pete Walker had no mother. (beat) She died in childbirth. Grissom: He never slips up.

Paul Millander: Aren't you wondering about your birthday? Grissom: No. Paul Millander: Why I didn't kill you, since you were next? Grissom: No. Paul Millander: I've already picked my next victim, if you're curious. Grissom: It doesn't matter, Paul. You'll be in jail.

Greg: Okay. The hair you found in Pauline Millander's bedroom two x chromosomes-- female. Grissom: You didn't beep me for that. Greg: Well, Sara had me compare it to the hair found in the tub at the crime scene. They're a perfect match. (beat) DNA identical. Catherine: So, her brother planted it? Greg: Well... Not exactly. Sara: Yeah, he planted it. He planted his own hair. Catherine: Millander. It's female hair. Sara: With endogenous testosterone. Pauline was taking male hormone injections. Grissom: Why? Sara: My theory? Sex change. Catherine: You know, when I was back at the house I saw several photographs of Pauline and nothing of Paul. In fact, the only proof of Paul is a hidden baseball card. Sara: There is no birth or death record for Pauline. Grissom: Paul killed Pauline. But he didn't murder her.

Sara: Grissom, Catherine briefed us about your birth date. Warrick: Yeah, what's up with that? Grissom: Coincidence. Make anything more of it gives Millander more power than he deserves. Nick: We work together; he can't outsmart all five of us. Grissom: Yes, he can. Catherine: Plan of attack -- split up. Nick, take the tape over to A-V. Break it down. Warrick, Sara -- examine the perimeter. We need to know how he got in and got out. We'll stay with the body. (they all pick up their kits and leave) Grissom: Thanks. Catherine: Anytime.

Catherine: Pete Walker, California. Date of birth: August 17, 1957. It's got to be the work of Paul Millander. What do you think brought him back out? Grissom: The rain? Catherine: Hasn't changed his M.O. -- kills men whose birthdays are on the anniversary of his father's murder. Grissom: In descending order -- first victim was August 17, 1959; second victim, August 17, 1958; this guy, 1957. Catherine (picks up tape recorder): Ready for this? Grissom: I have a good idea what it's going to say. Pete Walker (on tape): My name is Pete Walker. I reside at 715 Lady El Sol and I'm 44 years of age. I'm going to kill myself. I'd like to say "I love you" to my mother. I'm so sorry, I never wanted to put you through this. I just can't do it anymore." (gunshot heard on tape) Paul Millander (on tape): Happy... birthday, Mr. Grissom. Catherine: Isn't your birthday in August? Grissom: August 17, 1956. (Catherine looks shocked)

Sara: Greg, did you match the female hair from the crime scene? Greg: When you say jump I say how high?

(Nick is examining a car) Greg: Is this the car the guy was killed in? (Nick is clearly startled) Nick: He was killed in the warehouse. And don't sneak up on a person like that! Greg: Now you know how I feel, like ten times a day.
