One thing that really stood out for me in this episode, though I might be a little biased since she's my favorite character (although this might also explain why), But Natalia seems to be the only character with depth and a sense of real history/development. The lack of these qualities from the other characters detracts from this, and I wish that the writers put as much effort into developing them, as they have for Natalia (unless I am giving tptb too much credit here, and it's really Eva La Rue who brings these dynamics to Natalia.)
That being said, the episode held my attention, but it was an expected and typical episode. I liked the flashback to Marisol, but with an absence of history/continuity in previous seasons, these nods just feel forced this season .
not much else to say. I want to be more excited about the episodes coming up , but I have been too drained by previous let-downs.
-- Also I enjoyed Sgt Jennifer Swanson, did anyone noticed that she's been on the show once before, years ago?
Her interactions with Natalia is what made me really stop to think about what I said above. I liked and disliked Natalia's naturalness with Sgt. Jennifer.... it gave the impression like they worked together all the time, yet we've never seen them together before, and without the power of IMDB, I wouldn't have known that Sgt. Jennifer had existed in the CSI world before.
I wouldn't mind seeing her more regularly, as long as it doesn't take away from our current characters.
that the leader whos name escapes me was still alive and hiding out on the boat. He sent a text to Memmo's cronies, and Memmo read their phone and decided to go over and finish the leader off.
