"Kill Me If You Can" Discussion *SPOILERS*

I really enjoyed this episode and thought it was cool the way they linked all the cases together. I think Liz Vassey had a bigger part in this episode working with Laurence Fishburne at the crime scene which is great!! She's very attractive and adds a lot to the show.

 

The show was a little confusing. I thought Ray and Wendy were a good team as well. I hope they have more scenes together. Ray seemed more at ease, and Wendy adds some levity to her scenes.

 

Generally, turtles live in salt water (with the exception of box turtles and terrapins) and tortoises live on land or in fresh water.

Something that sort of confused me...the scene where Nick and Cavaliere are watching the dvd of Ryan whatshisface that is Nick's office right? Cause the window behind him I never noticed before when it used to be Grissom's office

 

Now after watching the episode, I think I can say I wasn't confused until the very end, with the whole solution to the case. I thought Michael Weston did a great job with his character, but I thought the sub-episode titles were a bit cheesy. "4x4" and "Toe Tags" were interesting episodes in the way the story unfolded, and I think this one was different from those two besides the fact that this episode just had three cases as opposed to four. The way it just connected to one case and all.

I give it a B.

 

It may not have made much sense pairing Wendy with Langston, but I liked them together. Besides, there were hints about her going out in the field last season so really, it's about time. I also liked the scene with Mandy, Catherine and Hodges with the tortoise. Not the best episode ever but entertaining.

 

I really found this episode very confusing. It seemed very disconnected and not very well thought out. Even at the end, it was like :wtf:.

The rewinding between cases did remind me of "4x4". But while that episode I liked, and it seemed to actually flow pretty well, this one did not.

Hopefully they will do better next week.

 

What was this episode about? All I saw was a bunch of pairings that made absolutly no sense and One of the Dukes crying.
Did I miss a time warp where Ray got actual experiance?
Over all this episode was just so disjointed and confusing I kept switching to HGTV.
Next week the previews make a big deal about Swift all I can think is that Nick's going to cry.

 

I couldn't agree more that it was missing the whimsy that made the other episodes.
4x4 is one of my favorite episodes. I enjoy it even more after watching it the commentary in the DVD set.

With that said, this episode not so much. I was glad everyone got screen time, just didn't seem like enough. When is Greg going to supervisor/assist Ray? I like Wendy in the field and wonder why Hodges is getting less time? Episode had potential, but not well executed. Is the title a play on "Catch me if you can" about the forgerer?

Hopefully next weeks will be better...

 

I would just like to add that there is alot of discussion on Ray being alone without a seasoned CSI, but actually there is one there techniqually and it might be enough for Catherine. In a lot if not most of the scenes he [Ray] goes to Brass is there, and before Grissom took over as head of CSI, Brass was the head of CSI. So maybe in Catherines eyes that is the samething.

Lets not forget that Holly was a different time, who is to say that things (ie regulations) couldn't have changed. Plus I believe that Warrick had to shadow Holly more because he mouthed off to Brass and this was his so called punishment. As to Greg he learned on the Job (listening, watching) from others, and his classes. They might have taken Gregs psycological into effect, again another time, and regulations could have changed more.

Given Rays Profession before Joining CSI, the training he went through, and maybe there is something in his past that qualifies him even further or proves that he could be on his own. So then why is he only a level one, well that could be simple, he might have all that, but he wasn't from an actual CSI therefore for all the qualifications he is still a newbie in the sense of levels to work.

But all that is just my guess, who really knows maybe Grissom had one set of standards, and Catherine has another set when it comes to who does what. Won't know unless it is revealed.

 

I agree. Ray is a medical doctor and is overqualified for the job of CSI Level One, but I guess that gives him a leg up on the others who started out with a science degree and nothing but.

Catherine's a much different leader than Grissom. She delegates a little bit more and has a lot of faith in her team.

 

I'd like to see more of Wendy. She's a seasoned actor and could bring a lot more to the show...as a field evidence collector.
