    Despite some minor flaws, this episode is one of the best episodes of the season. It's also one of the most compelling and entertaining of the entire series. The scene at Trevor Beck's autopsy when Langston and Robbins open Trevor's skull is one you won't soon forget. Seeing Trevor's brain swell up is almost too frightening to look at. The scenes of Cindy Medina's dead body stuck in the tree are just as frightening. The close up shots of her mangled legs as well as the overhead shot of her body in the tree are brilliantly staged. A great episode.moreless

    • Hodges: The suspect hides the murder weapon in plain sight, in her auto shop class. Pretty sophisticated for a high school girl, right? Wendy: Well, she's definetly more sophisticated than the ones you chat with on the Twilight message boards.

    • Greg: I was just thinking about the time I went joy riding. Nick: You? Really? Greg: I was 12. My Papa Olaf just bought a red 280 ZX, man it was love at first sight. And I have no idea what made me think I could get away with it, but when Papa O went down for his afternoon nap, I swiped the keys a took it for a spin. Nick: Where'd you go? Greg: Around the block... twice. And when I was rolling it back into the driveway, I almost ran over my foot. Papa Olaf woke up, had no idea and never found out.

    • Sara: So, we're looking for a yellow street racer in Las Vegas. Great. That should narrow it down to a few hundred suspects.

    • Nick: Two cars, dead of night, a girl at the end of a lonely stretch of a quarter mile straight away, this was a drag race. Sara: With Cindy at the finish line, in every sense of the word.

    • Nick: On the night before his last drive from home to school, Trevor drove about 14 miles in the course of about an hour of a half without turning his engine off. So that's a 7 miles out, 7 miles back... 7 mile search radius. Sara: And just before he made that trip, was the last time Cindy Warner was seen. Catherine: I've got a bad feelin' about this.

    • Miymoto (about Cindy): She's missing? Brass: Yeah. Miymoto: Where is she? Brass: If we knew where she was, she wouldn't be missing.

    • Sara: It's Cindy Warner's phone. Nick: They say the only way to get a cell phone from a teenage girl is to pry it from her cold dead hand. Sara: Well, whoever they are, let's hope they're wrong.

    • Catherine: You don't look nearly busy enough. Archie: Well, thank you. It is my gift to look relaxed while doing many things. Unlike Hodges, who has the ability to look overwhelmed while really doing nothing at all.

    • Catherine: When you are young, you think you are immortal and when you get older you just want to remember how that felt. Driving crazy fast on open road… Nick: We are not getting old, are we?

    • Nick (looking at the victim's car): Nobody mentioned it was electric. Sara: Sooo… Nick: So, this is a 1958 Porsche speedster… Sara: Sooo… Nick: So, it's a classic, James Dean had one of these. Putting an electric motor in this is sacrilegious. Sara: Not to polar bears.
