    This episode was not one of my favorites, but it was ok nevertheless.

    Grissom, & Cath have to find pieces of a skeleton when a single bone is found in the desert. Catherine calls Terri back to help them with the investigation.

    Nick is also helping with the investigation but he doesn't get much screentime in this episode. We also see a romantic side to Grissom when he invites Terri out to dinner at the end.

    Sara & Warrick investigate the murder of a male stripper and have 3 suspects who are all lying.

    There was a funny moment in this episode when Sara was explaining to the 3 women about the clock and the detective looked embarrassed & left the room.moreless

    • Goof: When Sara and Warrick are interviewing Meg, the scene cuts between a medium shot of the dynamic duo, a close up of Meg's face and a close up of her hands which remain clasped on the table. The first cut to Meg there are tears in her eyes, but her face is dry. The second cut to her, there's a drying tear track on her right cheek. The third cut back to her, the tear track is gone, but there is a tear halfway down her left cheek. Edit
    • Goof: CZ is weaker than diamond and is considered "brittle". While quality CZ might cut glass, a diamond certainly would have cut the glass table with the heavy finger pressure that Warrick applied. Edit
    • Goof: At the end when Grissom is on his date with Teri Miller, Grissom gets a page. Teri reaches for her drink with her left hand and brings it to her lips, but in the next shot she's sipping with her right hand. Edit

    • Grissom: You failed to report him missing for seven months because ... ? Rose Bennett: I don't like your tone, young man. Edit
    • Sara: So, ladies of the wedding party, you get a free course in the forensics of sexual intercourse. Secrets of our trade. Lynn, when you had your exam for sexual assault a SART nurse makes a clock like this. (turns around and picks up a piece of chalk to illustrate on the blackboard) This is the vagina. It does tell a monologue. Some bruising is normal when sex occurs. Injuries at 11:00 ... 12:00 or 1:00 indicate consensual sex or what we would call "avid." Injuries around the dinner hour ... five, six, or seven, indicate forced entry. The woman hasn't done anything to help her partner thus sustaining serious bruising. Sgt. O'Riley: Sidle, I'm going to be just outside the door. Sara: Okay, O'Riley. Lynn ... your exam showed no evidence of sex in the last 48 hours. Actually, in months. (Joyce snickers quietly) But the epithelials indicate that Darren had sex right before he died and the coroner puts time of death when you've all admitted to being present. So... Meg? Joyce? (they are all silent) Look, we can run the clock exam on each of you. And the clock is going to tell us what happened. So who wants to go first? Meg: I had sex with Darren ... and it wasn't rape. Edit
    • Catherine: So, are you thinking what I'm thinking? Grissom: How amazing the universe is. Everything made from the same carbon, stars to trees, trucks to human bones. Catherine: Uh, no, I was thinking that we have about 100 bone fragments. We could ID this body before the end of the shift. Grissom: Hmm. Catherine: Stars and trucks? Edit

    • Catherine: We're using Cliff Notes to put that skeleton together... Cliffs Notes started in 1958 as a study guide to various kinds of literature, explaining complex concepts and pointing out the worthy story points. Edit
    • (The team is trying to piece together the skeleton.) Grissom: I'll take toe bones for 200 Alex. This is a reference to the famous game show Jeopardy, hosted by Alex Trebek since 1984, where contestants try to find the question from a posed answer. Edit
    • Episode Title: To Halve and to Hold The title of this episode is a clever play on words, mirroring the traditional wedding vow to have and to hold from this day forward. Edit
