CSI: Miami

Nicholas Pike: They were never really alive. I was doing them a favor. Horatio: But that's not for you to decide, is it, Mr. Pike?

Calleigh: What are we not seeing? Jake: And you say that I take everything at face value? Think outside the science for a minute. Twice this killer's struck at night. Calleigh: And the other time it was during an eclipse. Jake: The only time he can go out without risking sun exposure. Eric: What about Nicholas Pike? The guy who met Diana Long online? He's a night club owner. Calleigh: Which makes him a night owl.

Ryan: Hey, looks who's back. Alexx: There's my hero. Did you get a nice homecoming, baby? Ryan: Hey, I don't wanna talk about that. You know what I wanna talk about? Alexx: Hm? Ryan: What happened to you? Alexx: He is what happened to me. Ronnie Temple. Ryan: Our drug dealer. Alexx: Apparently, he took them too. His coffin nail of choice. Crystal meth. Ryan: So that explains why the stomach looks like that. Alexx: This is what knocked me out. Crystal meth is cut with ammonia, drain cleaner, even chloroform. Massive use can cause a build up of phosphene gas.

Ryan: So this is Diana Long's computer desktop. Samantha: More like her lifeline. There's an icon for absolutely everything. Ryan: Well, it's modern living, I guess. Samantha: If you call being a mouse potato living? Sure, I guess so. Ryan: Says the girl who gets her paycheck from standing in front of a computer screen all day. Samantha: Wow. First day back and you're already feisty.

Eric: All right, well something I need to say to you, so just let me say it. Thing with you and Calleigh, Stetler, I never meant for that... Jake: Save it. She's obviously not too bothered by it. It means I'm not too bothered by it.

Eric: Alexx's doctor called. She's regained consciousness. CT scan came up normal. Doesn't seem to be any internal cause. Natalia: So it was environmental. Eric: You'd think. But Hazmat cleared the room. Natalia: Yeah. There's nothing showing up on the Minirae. I don't know. Maybe Alexx is right. Eric: About what? Natalia: The eclipse and somebody dying during an eclipse. Eric: Yeah, they don't rest until they've taken the soul of someone else. (Eric opens the drawer and finds an autospied female with smiliar ligature marks as the other victim) I think we found our other soul.

Eric: Still, uh, angry with me about the thing with Jake, right? Calleigh: No, I'm not. You know what? It, it probably would have gotten out eventually even if you hadn't have told Stetler and you probably just sped up the inevitable. Eric: If it would a been me, I would a transferred to the night shift. Calleigh: That's sweet.

Alexx: Look, I just wanna be put on record. This, right, this is some bad mojo. Jake: (scoffs) How do you figure? Alexx: My grandmother was into astrology. And the saying goes, if someone dies during an eclipse, they can't rest until they take another soul with them. Jake: That's ridiculous. Alexx: Hey. I'm gonna do my job. But mojo is mojo, honey. Calleigh: Just ignore him, Alexx. He takes everything at face value. Jake: Well, call me if you get anything. If you still remember the number. (walks away) Alexx: I heard you two had to break up because of department rules. Calleigh: That's the story. Speaking of stories, I heard on the radio this morning that there had not been a total eclipse in Miami since the year 1637. Alexx: The path of totality. (chuckles) It's the one time when God himself looks the other way. Calleigh: I don't know this side of you, Alexx, but I like it.

Jake: Hey, Calleigh. (Calleigh ignores him) Okay. That's not your usual passive/aggressive. Now, that was aggressive/aggressive. Calleigh: Not now, Berkeley. Jake: I know that tone. I mean, that's, us taking a break was a mutual thing, right? Calleigh: It was...it is.

Horatio: Any witnesses? Jake: A couple dozen people hanging around the pool but nobody saw a thing. Horatio: That's because they were watching, the eclipse. Jake: All eyes on the sky. I think the killer counted on the distraction. Horatio: But he didn't count on us.

Horatio: Good to have you back, Mr. Wolfe Ryan: It's good to be back. (pause)You went to bat for me. I'm never gonna forget that. Horatio: It's in your blood, isn't it? Never forget that. Ryan: (determined) I won't. Horatio: Mr. Wolfe, at the end of the day, if we don't hang together, we'll die alone.

Horatio: Shawn, you're a pool boy at the Woolrich Hotel and we recovered your employee badge at our victim's body. Shawn Hodges: Well, someone broke into my locker, took my badge. Frank: Hmm. Why don't you show him your hands there, sport? Shawn Hodges: (about the cuts on his hands) It's not what you think, it happened on the job this morning. Frank: I think you've hit your quota of cockamamie excuses today.

Natalia: Let me ask you something, Frank. Do you believe in all of this, you know, eclipse affecting people? Frank: No. I don't believe in that hocus pocus. It is what it is. It ain't what it ain't. Don't make it what it isn't. Natalia: Okay.

Shawn Hodges: (about Ronnie Temple) Look, I didn't care what the guy did, to be honest. I just didn't want to be on his bad side. Horatio: And you don't wanna be on mine either, I can assure you. Shawn Hodges: But you have to believe me. I'm innocent. Horatio: Mr. Hodges, I don't have to believe anything.
