Grissom&Sara#22 - Tongues Cost More

I completely agree,I wanna to see them getting closer,I mean,I like when GSR is subtle but it does have to be subtlt all the time!

 

Regarding Billy saying Grissom hasn't gotten any for ten years, I doubt he said that in full confidence. I think he just kind of said that in passing to make a point that it's been while. I don't think he literally meant ten years.

 

lol. Agreed. Especially if you're in the camp of people who, like me, think he did in fact get it on in Lady Heather's Box. ETA Wow. That came out super dirty. End of ETA

"Ten years" was probably meant more as 'a very long time' than anything else. Besides, if you ignore LHB, it's been 6 years at the least, and you know the lab tech he was dating wasn't a sexual relationship, because she was asking him to kiss her and he had no idea of where to take her for a date.

lol @ "adult stuff". Agreed, but I think that the finale scene was pretty grown-up, and it is fun to see two formerly work-a-holic, somewhat uptight people, kind of just having fun in one-another's presence. I would, however, love seeing a really domestic scene like one of the ones you described. Something small, but just sort of... normal? There may be a chance that when he takes off to teach at UNLV that we'll get a scene where he's preparing at home, or at least her asking him about it. For once, the writers have given themselves a place to stage a forum into his mind. Which is kind of fun.

Quick note about spoilers: unless it's a spoiled scene, it doesn't need the tags. Not a slam, but I know the rules get confusing.

New Toe Tags Promo

 

i havent got time to read and comment on the rest of the replies, but until then, i have got some time to say, that i agree, id really like some more 'couply' scenes between them, away from work, i just wanna see that, we have a grand total of is it one scene of them away from work as a couple (s6 finale) i think it would be way cute. and we'd see a different dimention of their relationship.

i cant believe the next ep is tomorrow, time flys by, hoping for some GSR obviously!

 

Speaking of the preview, is anyone else not getting video for it - just audio?

At any rate:

Spoiler: the promo

From what I can hear, it's the scene that Gibby spoiled, which is leading me to believe that they're only allowing her to spoil certain things, where Grissom is teaching a small class in the morgue and they're asking him questions. I think it would be especially cute if Sara came in and sort of helped out, a nice little wink to her having been his former student. In fact, that's probably what sparks the blush comment later on.

 

Damn straight she would. Who wouldn't?

Does Zigs? If not, mail, dude. Zigs stalks me, she knows my address.

No, I mean David. Which was exactly my point. It's in 'Boom', FYI.

Aw, there, there.

The duvet cover's a dead giveaway, though.

Agreed. I don't see why Warrick can't call him something else. Like 'G' maybe. I mean, he's black, he could pull it off. Ahem.

Yet you didn't mind it was followed by 'tastily' too? *inserts horrible visuals into your mind* :devil:

I can't imagine Brass telling people. Even Sara - I mean however close they are, how could that have gone down? But enough people would have caught wind of the case and Grissom's involvement with LH. All second and third hand, obviously. But it's that kinda info that leaves the best kinda room for your imagination to fill in the gaps with suggestion.

True, true. Ah well, we'll see how it pans out.

 

I don't believe she does either. Perhaps I can cut his face into four pieces and send one to you for each season.

Aaah. Gotchya. That may have been before Doc had a proper name. I think RDH was meant to be a fill-in when the other coroner dropped out.

Well, yes. But one doesn't walk around with a duvet cover wrapped upon their shoulders, does one? *Pets duvet cover*

RACIST

I purposefully omitted that. Sara may be up for that, but Sarah with an H certainly is NOT.

But the question is, if it wasn't Brass, then who was it? Brass was the only one who seemed to be aware of how close Grissom was getting to the case, and to her.

And I don't think, that if concerned for his friend, Brass would keep it all a secret. I can see him sort of saying to Catherine, "Can't you do something about this?"

Yes, rumors spread - but they have to have a source. Especially if they're going to get to Sara. Now I'll give you this - lab techs are kind of treated as invisible in a lot of cases. So chances are Sara was with one of them and they gabbed a bit about it during Pirates. Or what about Wendy? Wendy knew a LOT about the case, probably registered how closed-mouthed Grissom was being about LH's condom.

We shall.

 

Regarding the Lady H discussion. Isn't Sara like the only one from the team who hasn't met her?

 

Okay, I'll break it down to make it easier so I can think this through:

1) Grissom has obviously met her
2) As has Brass
3) Doc has - he told her that her daughter had given birth
4) Warrick - when she opened the door at Wolfowitz's
5) Nick - same as Warrick, and I believe he investigated her dominion in the first LH episode


I don't think Greg OR Sara has ever met her.

Interesting.

lol.

Anyway - it's definitely been strategic. In Pirates, the scenes where Sara and Nick investigate the pirate or talk to each other... those were supposed to be between her and Grissom. A LOT got changed in that episode due to time constraints, though, including the ending, and from what I heard, they only just finished in time. So it's possible the scenes were changed because actors just needed to double-up to get things done.

In any event, the two episodes before that I would also say Sara was kept at bay purposefully.

That seems to be the case any time one of them is showing interest or flirting with someone else. Hank may be the only crossover jealousy we've really seen.

Which is a shame - as obvious as it would have made the scene, I would've like to see Grissom give a little glare at Mikey or something in Roshomama.

 

Cut the Tom and I'll cut you, ho.

Probably. It's really confusing to watch now, though. It's like "Wait, superdave isn't in the room...huh?"

Clearly doesn't get cold enough in Vancouver for you to be out and bundled up in a duvet. What kind of Canadian city doesn't get that cold? Honestly, it's practically unpatriotic.

You're just jealous you can't get away with it, Jew.

That just reminds me of a line I heard in a movie the other day:
VEGETARIAN GIRL: (to hot guy whilst on date) I don't have to give up all meat for you...

NO I WAS NOT WATCHING PORN.

To Catherine, sure. But I can't imagine her letting it slip either. They have the grown-ups' code of honour to uphold. What is said between the three of them, stays between the three of them (somehow the original 'what happens in vegas' line didn't seem to be quite effective enough, seeing as they're, well...always in vegas).

They (whoever started it - one of the junior CSIs, a lab tech, whatever) needn't have necessarily known the facts. They could have just caught wind of the amount of time Grissom was spending at The Domain, and someone coulda made an off-hand joke about the possibility of Grissom gettin' some action over there, and it may've snowballed. Ooh, especially if they said it around someone like Brass, fully joking (but him not realising they didn't actually know anything) and Brass got all protective of Grissom, making them realise there WAS in fact something more there.


ETA:

You forgot to mention Catherine's obviously met her. And with their comment about Greg re: latex and straws up his nose, maybe Greg has in fact met her - just off the clock (especially if Nick investigated her dominion...*cough*)

 

You know what episode of Friends I LOVED? When the Tom showed up - SANS MOUSTACHE. All of his moustachioed power was gone. He was a broken Tom.

Well, and calling David "David" may have been another one of those things - originally David Berman was a researcher for the show, then they probably just needed someone to say a few lines as a coroner, and they stuck him in there.

Same with Archie the lab tech. Can't be a coincidence that the character's name happened to be Archie as well.

Well, perhaps we don't wrap duvets around our necks because unlike New Zealanders, we don't shag sheep.

Pssht. Jews can get away with anything. It's the goys that are in trouble. Just ask Mel Gibson.

Uh-hugh. It was probably some weird New Zealand soap.

And dear God - if Sara ever makes an allusion to certain "meat" she'll eat, I will stop shipping. I promise. I don't care if she says that in private. I don't care if they do it on his desk. I don't care if she was under the morgue table while he was singing (which would explain a lot), it's still wrong.

The news of Teri Miller got to Greg when he was just a lab tech. I think people are sort of fascinated with the amount of flirting that Grissom gets and the lack of social life he has. So if they so much as catch wind of him with a lady, it's all over.

Naturally, seeing as he won't be as overt with Sara, they'd be less likely to suspect.

You know what else I was thinking about in regards to my for us being canon? I remember when Grey Hair and Thermite happened. It was almost like... the comments felt dangerous? You didn't know how Grissom would respond, or how others would see it, or why Sara's smile looked so smug - I think it was more exciting when you didn't know if they were together.

Now, if they start flirting in front of others, it might have some of that quality again, but then you run into the problem of plausability and, of course, soapiness.

Very true. Or maybe Sara sat in on some of the interrogations in Pirates.

In any event, whatever she heard is probably 10 times worse than anything that happened.

ETA

Weird. Catherine was the first one on my mental list. Anyway - yeah. I'm sure our boys have spent plenty of time in her box.

 

That was so wrong Just like seeing him with a goatee, too. He should ONLY have the moustache.

Possibly. But (re: Archie) remember he was in Chaos Theory as the college security guy (or at least the guy who was in charge of the security cameras/footage) and he was wearing a name badge with a different name on it (though for the life of me I can't think what it said). So maybe they were just lazy and though "Eh, Archie will do for a character name, too. But your real last name is too Asian. We need something really American. Like a true patriot. ...Johnson it is."

I was going to ask what the duvet thing had to do with shagging sheep, but then I figured you just wanted any excuse to make that comment Anyway, I live in 'the big city' that Vancouver cloned itself from, so there a) are no sheep here, and b) is not enough cold weather to warrant duvet-wandering. ...Well, for normal people. I'm a wimp when it comes to the cold, though. I wear like 6 layers of clothing during the winter when it's like 20 degrees (celcius, people) and I'm still cold.

Yeah, you just need to pay them off. Oh, I went there.

Actually it was a film shot in Vancouver. BOOYAH.

Hahahaha ewwwwwwwwwww.

Much agreed.

Again, agreed. But while it kinda feels like things should change now - should they? I mean, if they were in fact together the whole way through season 6, then things should be the same now as they were then. I think the CSIs would get suspicious if Grissom and Sara stopped making those comments around each other. Warrick should at least.

Creepy interrogation stalker.

As per all workplace rumours.

Ew.

 

Seconds the ewwing.

That's shocking.

LMAO. Thats just really funny, seriously.

I think they all would, really.

 

If TPTB decide to bring Lady Heather back, a confrontation with Sara will be inevitable. It's absurd that Sara was the only main character that has never met her and this storyline would deserve a conclusion in one way or another. Obviously i don't want Lady Heather return caused the break up between Grissom and Sara and if at the end of this ep Grissom will stay with Sara,i'd like it happened because he has chosen her and not because Lady Heather has given up him.

 

What bothers me about the writers for this show is that they're sometimes afraid to have actual confrontations between the characters, since they aren't sure how the characters would react. If you ask me, Sara's plenty mature enough to meet Lady H. without flying completely off the handle.

Grissom: I have a question.
Sara: Yeah?
Grissom: What's the deal with you vanishing every time Lady Heather shows up?
Sara: She frightens me.
Grissom: <pats on head>
Sara: <sniff>
Grissom: Why does she frighten you?
Sara: She has... such cool clothes... it scares me.
Grissom: Not all her clothes are cool.
Sara: Say what?
Grissom: What? Assless leather chaps? No, I didn't say that...
Sara: ... And how do you know this?
Grissom: Know what? Seriously, I don't know what you're talking about. <talking out of side of mouth> She's slightly disturbed... always trying to get me into the damn things... <shiver>
