Season 9 *Spoiler Lab* Discussions

You Have Entered The Spoiler Lab, STOP Or Be Spoiled!

Welcome To Season 9!!! Just like last seasons Spoiler Lab, Myself & TallyHo ask that you read, remember and respect the following regarding this thread.

This thread is for the discussions, opinions regarding the future "episodes, story-lines and character spoilers as it relates to the current season in the US." This thread has nothing to do with the actor/actresses themselves, ship discussions in general, or past episodes each of these have their own respective threads and or forum. Some comparisons to past eps is fine, as long as it follows the line of your current discussion but don't let it dominate.

We need to keep in mind so that we may maintain a balance in this and future lab threads, where the bickering, arguing and snarky comments are kept to a minimum or out altogether. Telling someone to "not watch the show if they don't like something" that is actually rude, flip side telling someone they cannot discuss a scene that pertains to an ep is also rude.

If a person puts in a valid point as to why they dislike it that is one thing, the "I hate [whatever]" or the "Squee I love [whatever]" only comments, are not valid points, add substance to why you like or dislike it would be more appropriate. (this is also meant for characters, ships, etc) all arguing and uncontrolled fighting does is waste energy and take time away from the discussions, no one thing should dominate this discussion thread other then getting the spoilers and discussing them rationally. Ignoring the baiting and negative commentary is precisely what is expected of those wishing to participate in this thread and Forum. If one cannot do so then a time out and away is probably the best thing all the way around until one is able to do the necessary.

Okay we know the rules were too long before so we have decided to tweak them in such away that it should be easier.

What Should I Know About Spoilers?

Code Boxes:
Not needed in here this already has the warning in the title and post, any other thread not clearly marked with said warning is where those are used, lightly please alot of people avoid spoilers lets respect that wish if possible.

Episode Names & Major Spoilers:
List the name of the spoiler ep you are giving or just discussing to avoid confusion. Spoilers are subject to changes and should only be considered as a guide to what could be happening in that episode, and not what will happen.
Not everyone wants to know the entire episode, (ie how it may end, ect) while we like to hear what it is about, hints to what might happen, lets not go farther then that, leave some surprises.

Copyrights, Sites, Vids & Pics:
Posting a spoiler word for word (or lines as well) is not allowed, we ask that you put it in a short summery of you're own words.
-Some places preferre that you not link to them for the spoilers and some places like 'sides' & 'SpoilerTv' that you are not allowed to mention or link to please be mindful of this. If asked to cite you're source contact myself or TallyHo for help. Copyright violations will be edited and or removed.
-Be mindful of the 'Video' rules located in the "Help Guide" on what places are allowed by this site.
-Pictures: There is already a thread for future episodes please contain all pictures to that thread.

Shipper/ships discussions:
The only time any ship discussion is allowed in here is when it pertains to said ep, ship or scene, should the ep not contain a ship moment then it does not belong in this thread or forum, but rather in the "Shipper Central" forum.

What should I know about this thread in General?

Stay On Topic:
As it says there try to stay on topic of this thread, veering off happens and that is fine as long as it doesn't go overboard, if it does we will let you know.

Opinions & Arguments:
Everyone is entitled to their opinions and to disagree with the opinions, your not entitled to attack someone for having the opinion, this is NOT a debate thread for which you can argue about things. Sometimes opinions might rile some which can lead to arguments to uncontrolled debates or outright flaming. The best thing to do is to take a deep breath, calm down, back away and agree to disagree and let it go, you really are not getting anywhere so why continue all that will get you is a gentle reminder or an official warning. Be mindful that if you are not involved in any argument don't jump in it only makes it worse, contact Myself or Tally via PM or click the NM (Notify Mod) Button.

EP Threads:
IF there is already a discussion thread up for an ep (by you moderators), please discuss that ep in that thread, as this is for Future eps, not yet aired. -- This is for LV Only! Any Spoilers for Miami, and New york belong in their respective forums and not in here if they are found in here they will be removed.

Lastly About the Mods:
Myself and TallyHo are asking for your cooperation in all this, we are not out to scare people or ruin the fun, we like fun, but at the same time we are trying to keep the balance, atmosphere and rules of the board intact and the thread inviting, like a comfy home, there will be some problems we know it, but if we come in in "Mod mode" we would appreciate not being ignored or having attitudes copped. You also know that if you need to you can always PM us and we will try to help you.

-Please remember, we reserve the right to update/change any of the above, remember the board rules, and reminders. Have fun.

 

Okay here is where we are so far, I would like to thank Tv.com for which the ep name and descripts are from. Please notice that I have listed the EP number, Name and small descript, this is what we are referring to in the above post, though some of the descript is allowed to be longer, just don't give it all away. We ask when discussing or adding more to the ep please referre to which ep you are talking about, to avoid any confusion. Also please remember that these as with any spoiler is subject to change, nothing is set in stone until it is aired.

"Arguably the drama's most infamous serial manance to date, the "Minature Killer will come back for an episode" Carol Mendelsohn reveals. "Grissom will cross paths with her":evil: more details from this site

SUMMARY

 

Episode 5 will feature the return of dominatrix Lady Heather (Melinda Clarke). “Grissom spends the night,” Shankar said. “I’m not saying what he’s doing there overnight. Let me tell you, it’ll be by far the most provocative Lady Heather episode we’ve ever done.”
* Episode 7 will revolve around Natalie, the Miniature Killer.
* For the 200th episode, director Billy Friedkin is coming back to direct an episode of the show.
* Jorja Fox is back as Sara Sidle in the first two episodes fo the show, and she’ll be back for several episodes later in the season.
* Petersen will remain an executive producer on the show and “if [a] story line creatively needs Grissom then he’s totally willing to come back and do it,” Shankar said.

From here

9x04 Scales-
Detective Cavaliere returns to this episode. He'll be working on a case with Catherine and Riley

A suspect lies to Riley because he likes her.

Lindsey, Catherine's daughter is in this episode. Lindsey is found with a fake ID on a dance floor that is tied in with the case that Catherine is investigating.

This is the Halloween episode this year.

Nick and Riley go out to get some coffee, but are interrupted to go work a 444.

One of the cases appears to be a woman who received a blood transfusion, and died. I'm also not quite sure if it's the same woman who is stabbed in the neck. That parts a bit iffy.

Wendy's working a case with Grissom.

---

9x02 The Happy Place-

Diana Bonfilio is mid to late 30s, a sensual, pretty and maternal high school guidance counselor. She led a double life as a party girl and compulsive gambler. She's found dead, terribly beaten in an evident fit of rage, much to the evident distress of her 18 year old "son," Zach. As we later learn, however, Diana's compulsions extended beyond the casino and into her home life, which was not at all the "normal" family unit she pretended it was. Wendy is out in the field in this episode because the team is short-handed. Case A is involving the death of a guidance counselor, and Case B is a case of a hypno-therapist, which is being worked by Catherine and Nick, frmo what I can tell.

---

9x03 - Art Imitates Life-

There's Warrick continuity in this episode. The CSIs and lab techs have to go through grief counsellings, including Grissom, Greg, Hodges, Wendy, Ecklie, and Mandy (no mention of Catherine or Nick in the counseling yet in the script). The conversations aren't mandatory, but asked.

The new CSI's name is Riley Adams, and no longer Bryce Adams.

The cases involves dead bodies that were found painted. I count five dead bodies in the script.

 

On the CSI Wiki, under spoilers, it says Nick sees Warrick's ghost, & that's why he's not coming back just in flashbacks, can anyone confirm this?

 

*Jorja Fox* will be back for "mulitple" episodes, beginning with the premiere--an HOUR that will also feature an apperance by Gary Dourdan's Warrick who was "seemingly" shot to death in last May's finale. "We're not saying whether or not Warrick lives or dies!,:wtf: hedges Mendelsohn, "but we will say that the premiere MAYBE, the last time our loyal fans see the entire original CSI cast together"........... so he might be back in the real person, not as a ghost, time will tell , but I've always stuck to the theory that he lives and Nick saves him:bolian:

Source..same site as above!

 

Nice to see the spoiler lab open again....

According to TV.com season 9 opens with Nick finding Warrick slumpped over in his car because he heard the gunshots.

This ought to be good, we ought to see some real emotions from Nick.

Ep 10 -Mole. This is the last episode where Grissom is a regular, as you all may know WP is leaving CSI but will remain as producer and will return for guest spots. In this episode the undersherriff may finally get caught.

Yes this is kinda true, its either ep 2 or 3 not sure which. Nick thinks he sees Warrick on the street but it is only a stranger. I think its Nick's imagination as opposed to a ghost.

 

Yeah Wojo, I hope its a stranger and not a ghost/hallucination. We don't want a circo like CSI: Miami

 

Maybe he'll be in a coma for a long time? That'd be kinda cliche though

 

Yeah I was hearing that Nick was seeing Warrick in few different places, and losing his mind! WhenI joked about how that poor boy wasn't in a psychic ward for all the stuff he was put through, didn't actually think that would some what come true. Okay he's not being put in that, but the poor boy is losing his mind. Which means me likie alotie!

P.S. I'm glad the spoiler lab is back up to! Hopefully people can play nice

I'm excited Lady Heather is back, she was on Firefly and I loved her there as well. The woman is just...sexy!

 

Hey I'm all for Nick losing his mind..I wanna see the men in white drag him off..

No I just want some..major..Nick angst..because nobody does angst..like..George Eads..

 

I agree with myfuturecsi, George does do a good job with angst, and I think that they should finally give Nick all the aftermath he needs. I mean, he was buried alive, stalked, held at gunpoint, and all of that, but he didn't get too much angst for it. I understand CSI is a show about forensics, but if you're going to do something to someone like that, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't get over it for years.

And now, with Warrick's death, I too hope that they won't have the hallucination/ghost thing. Nick will be pretty screwed up if he finds Warrick either dead or dying.

 

Yeah I am all for some Nick angst, he deserves some continuity because he sure didn't get any after Grave Danger.

I am also anxious for some Greg spoilers, haven't seen much. I'd like to see everyone deal with what has happened to Warrick. And I can't wait until Sherriff McCaine gets whats coming to him.

 

I definitely think Nick needs to show how Warrick's death affects him. I have this desire to see him go completely off the rails in an episode and Ecklie or even Grissom tell him, you need to go see someone.

It could be like during Numbers I think the second season?....Don was ordered to see a therapist after something he did that was a no-no....and they weaved it into the show nicely. That would be interesting. Cause Nick's got a lot of baggage he needs to deal with.

I also think Greg should be given a chance to step up and show his growth as a CSI. Maybe he gets moved to level two and has to pass his gun range test and can't do it and needs help from say Nick or someone...

 

Nick's in alot of great epsiodes, Just watched "Drops Out" when he worked with Brass and Warrick, he was great "pretending to be reading that newspaper" at that taco stand, and the woman so knew:lol: he was great in this! "Snakes" he was outstanding:thumbsup: the list of his acting ability in so many CSI's is too numerous to mention. I was furious that he didn't win an Emmy or even a nomination for "Grave Danger" he was marvelous:bolian:, but he's in almost every episode and beings he's one of the CSI's who's signed back on, I'm sure TPTB have many plans for him in future shows! and possibly a romantic liaisonAnd Greggie too!
