CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

Warrick: Are you trying to tell me that your own father set you up? Seth Landers: The truth is, I just wanted him to like me. But I'm not him. You know, I'm never going to be him. Counting cards and the poker face. They say it's a skill, but it's a gift. 'Til Sam Braun took it away. Warrick: So you went after Sam Braun to prove something to your old man. Seth Landers: Yeah. I mean, I went after the whale, but I skinned it. I did what my dad could never do.

Greg: That means Sam Braun's innocent. This time. Are you disappointed? Grissom: It's the evidence.

Catherine: Uh, you know those tracks that we found at the neon graveyard? Grissom: The ones from the case you're not working on? Catherine: Yeah, those. Sam ... used to be a caddy man. He would drive a new one every year. These days, he's being driven. Grissom: And you know this because ... ? Catherine: I saw him. He came to me. Grissom: And you walked away, I hope. Catherine: I made him walk away from me. Right into a stretch limo with a big turning radius. Grissom: That doesn't prove anything. Besides, any evidence that comes from you is tainted. Catherine: Then have it come from you. Warrant shouldn't be hard to get. Especially if the call comes from someone whose character is above reproach. (they share a look, she makes sure he gets the meaning of what she's saying, and then she turns and leaves)

Sam: Do you have any idea the house advantage in roulette? Grissom: Five point two six percent. Albert Einstein had a theory about roulette. He said the only way to win at roulette is to steal the money from the table when the croupier isn't looking. Sam: There's always someone looking.

Grissom: We found the body under the Whiskey Town sign and the guy just cleaned out the Rampart Casino. Catherine: Coincidence. Grissom: Even if it is, they're still Sam Braun's casinos. Catherine: Why is that a problem? Grissom: He's your father. You can't be on this case. Catherine: Gil ... Grissom: Catherine, you have to go home.

Grissom: I thought that Nick was the best candidate for the position. Sara: Why? Grissom: Because he didn't care whether he got the job or not. Sara: That's a stupid reason.

Sam: Mugs, I heard you had some time off because of me. Catherine: I could get fired for even having this conversation. Sam: Relax. Vegas is a small town. I'm always running into people I know. Catherine (sighs): Just cut to the chase, Sam. Sam: Some people in this town think I'm a murderer. Catherine: Some people in this town know you're a murderer.

Grissom: Well, his driver's license was fake, so, this could be fake, too. Sara: A fake ID is for scamming a casino. A baller puts his real name on a roley. (Grissom turns and gives Sara a look, surprised by what he just heard. She shrugs it off and waves the papers in her hand toward Warrick) What? He rubs off.

Warrick: They used to tell me back in the day that if you were caught cheating you'd get a couple whacks on the hand with a ball peen hammer. Doc Robbins: Ow. Warrick: Second time you got caught you'd lose a limb. Doc Robbins: Third time? Warrick: A long walk in the desert with a shovel.

Sam Braun: I'm curious. What bothers you more? The fact that you couldn't pin a murder on me....or that Catherine cashed my check? (Grissom gives him a look) There were no strings on that money.

Grissom: He's wearing a wig and a fat suit. It's not Halloween, is it? Catherine: In this town, it's always Halloween.
