Sara was in the foster care system for a brief while.
At the end of the show Sara has typed "The People vs. Laura Sidle" into a search engine online. She is looking up information on a case involving her mother.
Goof: The gun in the lab that Mia is processing has feces on the hammer. The next scene is the weapons tech test firing the gun without gloves.
Catherine: Lieutenant Chen dropped by. Warrick: Really. I wonder what for. Catherine: To complain about you. Wish you told me you had a beef with him. Warrick: There was nothing to say. We had words, it got heated, then it was over. Catherine: Well ... (clears throat) ... I'm the supervisor of the swing shift. I'm responsible for the whole team. It's my job to make sure that we remain objective and professional. Warrick: Yeah, I really don't see what the big deal is. I mean, I remember talking to Grissom ... Catherine: Well, I'm not Grissom. He let a lot of things slide that I won't. Warrick: Okay. Is there anything else? Catherine: The evidence cleared the extraction team. You owe Lieutenant Chen an apology. Warrick: Written or verbal?
Mia (at Warrick's phone that keeps ringing): You gonna get that? Warrick (looks at the caller I.D): No. Mia (mutters): Player. Warrick: Oh, now I'm a 'player'. You make up your mind pretty quick. Mia: I'll, uh, page you when I get the results. Warrick: Yeah? (Warrick holds out his phone to Mia, showing her the ID of the caller: G. Sanders) He was a rough one last night, so I called to check on him. But since I'm here, I can do it in person. Anything else you want to say to me? Mia (smiles): Have a nice day. Warrick (chuckles): Is that it? Mia: (smiles): That's it.
Sofia: Well, it's going to take you forever to go through these alone. Sara: I'll get it done. Sofia: It took me a long time to get where I was, Sara. Now I feel like I'm starting from scratch. I miss sleeping at night. I miss my colleagues. I miss ... Sara: What? Sofia: Being trusted.
Catherine: Taking your pet for a walk? Grissom: I know how much you like my little fetal pig, so I'm giving him to you as an office-warming gift. Catherine: That is so thoughtful. Now tell me why you really stopped by. You checking up on me? Grissom: No. Catherine: What've you heard? Who talked to you? Grissom: See? You've only been on the job a week and you're already paranoid. Catherine (laughs): When I was your right hand and your left, I always knew if it hit the fan, you'd be the one to get dirty. Grissom: Hey, that's the job. Catherine: Yeah, that's the job. Did you ever play politics? Grissom: I once ran for president of science club in junior high. Mary Hardy beat me out by one vote. Catherine: I'm going to guess that you didn't vote for yourself. Grissom: I'm not any good at politics. It cost me, that's how I lost Nick and Warrick. Catherine: Your loss, my gain. Grissom: Yeah, and at least I know that they're in good hands.
Sara (to Devine, a hooker): Could you open your mouth for me, please? (Devine scoffs) Brass: Come on, you could do that in your sleep, honey.
Hodges: Heard you had a real sphincter pucker last night. So what kinda gun are you getting? Greg: Plenty of guns at crime scenes. Cops have them, some criminalists... Hodges: Yeah, cops make great targets. Plus, CSIs get shot at all the time or didn't they tell you?
(After Sofia chased a guy who just shot a guy at a crime scene) Grissom: It says "forensics" on our jackets. Sofia: I'm aware of that. Grissom: We had plenty of cops chasing the suspect. Sofia: I wasn't chasing the suspect. I was chasing the evidence. I knew the idiot was likely to dump the gun. All we have to do is get a ballistics match the weapon to the two victims. (hands him the gun) Case closed.
Brass: So, Seattle P.D. has located Candace Malton. They're putting her on a plane tonight. They said she's pretty broken up. Sara: She left her kids with her hooker cousin. She should've known better. (Brass nods) Where are you going to take her first, the hospital or the morgue? Brass: Guess I might as well get it over with. I mean, once she sees the kids she's not going to want to leave them. (shrugs) What do you think? Sara: Go with the living, Jim. The dead can wait.
Sofia (about Warrick): He's pretty hot. Mia: Yeah, well, I think he knows it.
Brass: So, turns out that Mom was sending money after all. I found this letter inside mailed from Seattle with 300 bucks in it for the kid's upkeep. And that skanky bitch used it to buy a new TV.
Devine: My half-sister Candy left me with those bad-ass kids and no money. How am I supposed to feed them? Sara: You don't look like you've missed any meals to me. Devine: You know what, skinny bitch, go to hell. I just scrape by.
Doc Robbins: I have to admit this seems especially cruel and unsual. Sara: When kids are involved, it usually is.
Greg: Who the hell is shooting at us? Grissom: I don't know, but I think our single just turned into a triple.

Originally titled No Humans...
Episode Title: No Humans Involved The title of this episode is a reference to the attitudes of certain people to crimes - the idea being that those who are the victims are not worth investigating for some subjective reason.
The shooting suspect in the beginning and a prisoner in the jail sequence both mention the name "Rodney King"- a famous example of police brutality and injustice.
