    Bolding is mine. Wasn't Greg's sort of first solo case the one in Fannysmackin'? Could it be that Grissom felt bad at the time and didn't let him go out alone after that and then Catherine followed suit? It might explain why it's not that they don't see Greg as a competent CSI but he's kinda like "the kid" you know. The "baby" of the family and the one who needs the most looking out for.

    I think Greg was just on his way into work when he saw all of that going on and decided to stop it. I don't think he was actually supposed to work a case alone, but I could be wrong.

    I do like the idea behind what you said though. I think if there was a case that they felt would remind Greg of what happened to him (either the fire or the beating) then they didn't let him take that case even though he wanted it, he might feel like it was because they didn't think he could handle it when in reality they were just being overprotective. I actually like that idea a whole lot. It would go with the whole "family" theme. For them to think of Greg as the youngest of the family (although if you include Wendy, he's not lol).

    He also worked the Adler case solo in "The Happy Place". He may have asked Sara about the case, but he was solo on it.

    Actually here is the lines for that ep.
    I think Kasey is referring to the liquor store robbery
    GRISSOM: You're a big boy, Greg. You don't need a wingman for this.
    GREG: Primary. (smiles) Nice.


    And I think others thought this was meant.
    (Greg is driving on the road, making his way to the liquor store to pick up the sweater from Sofia. As he drives, he hears sounds of people grunting and yelling.) (He turns and sees an attack at the far end of an alleyway. Greg stops and reverses.) (Sure enough, there is a group of about a dozen individuals beating up a man on the ground.) (Greg stops and calls it in on his radio.)

    Don't know if this is it, but I also included a link to the transcript of the episode to better help with it. :)

    I forgot about that. :lol: But, to me a roberry is not the same thing. Anyone can work a robbery alone. Holly Gribbs was doing it in season one. But I don't think Greg has yet to get a solo murder case.

    Correct me (nicely) if I'm wrong but I thought in order to make Level 3 you had to have 100 solved solo cases? It's been a while since I watched the Pilot though so maybe I'm remembering it wrong.

    He was on the Pam Adler case, solo! Which ended up being a murder.

    Egeria, you're sorta right. You have to solve 100 cases to become a CSI Level 3, but they don't have to be solos.

    I'm not certain, but I think it just had to be 100 cases. I recall Nick complaining later that season that he wasn't getting that many solos. Perhaps he just had to be the primary on the cases or something. I haven't seen the pilot in awhile either (it's hard to watch, it's so...weird, characterization wise).

    I know, but I don't count that one because he didn't get to finish it. :lol:
    He gave it to Sara and he left and just ran background stuff for her on it.

    I really do hope that his new job is Lead CSI. :)

    What exactly goes with the title of 'Lead CSI'? Technically Greg is already third in the chain of command. (not sure where Sara falls into that) Would that just mean he's always a primary when Cath and Nick aren't around? Wouldn't he be that anyway? Or would he act like a consultant for the entire lab?
