    There was some great insight into Grissom\'s and Sara\'s minds. Sara has to learn that everyone lies and Griss\'s hearing further degenerates. You gotta feel for the both of them. Now, weather or not you feel bad for them or that these developments are good for them is up to you. For me, it is a little of both.
    The humor also makes this one worth watching. Sex jokes = funny, no matter what age. It\'s always good to have a good giggle at bathroom humor. It is just a great, well rounded episode. I would not mind rewatching it.moreless

    Another great episode.

    The team investigate a series of peeping tom incidents, they're trying to find the attacker before the assults become more serious, which unfortunately they do.

    Meanwhile Sara reopens a cold case. Her friend the DA undergoes surgery to remove a 3 year old bullet from her neck. The operation is risky & she doesn't think that she'll survive the surgery. Amazingly she survives & when Sara aquires the bullet she decides to reopen the case to find out who murdered the DA's husband & left her for dead. But Sara is shocked & surprised when she finds out who the murderer was.moreless

    • The episode title, "One Hit Wonder", is a term commonly applied to songs from bands that have released a very popular single, but failed to produce anything else worthy of reckognition. Edit
    • Goof: When Sara is narrating her reconstruction of the shooting to Melissa, she says that her husband leaned up from a prone position to shoot her. However, in the visually reconstructed scene, the husband is lying on his back - that's supine, not prone. Prone is lying on one's stomach. Edit
    • In this episode, Sara talks to Grissom about her 'older brother', while on the CBS bio page, it states that she is an only child. Biologically, Sara is an only child. However, she was raised in foster care and therefore had foster siblings. Edit

    • Catherine: Aren't you coming? Grissom: You can handle it. Catherine: High profile case, technicalities ... that can't be why you do this, why you hang back and hide out. Grissom: You look better on camera. Catherine: Right. I didn't think so. Edit
    • (Sara gives Bobby the bullet from her friend to process) Bobby: Hang on a second. (smiling) You get approval from Grissom, I don't want him walking in on me. Sara (nodding): Yeah. Bobby: Sara Sidle. Sara (smiling): Yeah, I did! Bobby: All right. Just checking! Edit
    • Nick: The semen sample I recovered is still being processed in DNA. Greg (walks in): Not anymore. I'm done. And no jokes about me being fast in this department. The ejaculate outside the first girl's window -- spank high. Good news: It does have DNA. Nick: Whose? Greg: I don't know. Ran it through CODIS, nothing kicked out. Catherine: Well, it's possible this guy's so new he doesn't even have a record. Greg: Well, I can tell you this about him: Really low sperm count. Sample hardly had any swimmers. Nick: That's probably from excessive masturbation. Guy's outpacing his ability to produce ... (he looks up and finds everyone staring at him) ... sperm. Warrick: You'd know it, spanky. Edit
