I have to admit . I've never heard the name John Mayer before the spoilers for this episode came out.
 
Okay folks lets keep it to what is relative to this episode, anything relative to future eps goes into the spoiler lab, or into the discussion thread we start for that ep. Thanks. :)
 
Wow! I've heard of Danny Bonaduce before. And I love John Mayer's music. He's really good.

Poor Cath! I'm feeling sorry for her.

ETA: My aunt just told me over the phone that Cath is supposed to dance with Nick in the club. She read it in her TV Guide. I told her that I read it on this site already. :)

Click to expand...

So, they were in a hotel room after all. I thought they were in Sara's apartment, although it did look kind of frilly for her decorating style.
 
Yeah, it was a hotel room. We've seen her apartment before, in 'You've Got Male'.

I shudder at the thought of that hotel room... I didn't like those decorations. *ughhh*
 
Because if they were at Grissom's apartment, they would risk someone like Catherine, Doc, or Warrick dropping over unannounced.

Sara is (was) more the loner, but I guess Catherine could have possibly dropped by Sara's place without prior warning. Either way, I suppose there would have been too much of a chance that a co-worker might drop by so they choose to "get-together" at a hotel.
 
I don't think they were at a hotel. We've asked around over at YTDAW, and it seems that the script had them at Sara's apartment. How news organizations and media outlets interpret the scene is another, thing, though, I guess...

But, this might be off-topic.

On topic, I think it'll be fun to see how much of John Mayer's song is actually featured in the episode. I've seen the music video (which is now at CBS Innertube and is much lighter and better quality) where they had the whole song, but usually there isn't enough time for an entire song in the context of the episode. Nick dancing with Cath should be fun, though. I hope someone comments on his amazing changing hair. ;)
 
I'm psyched for this ep!! John Mayer ROCKS and I recently went to a Cirque du Soleil show and loved it!! I especially can't wait to see Greggo back... :D
 
I thnk TV Guide doesn't know all the answers about CSI-and the small details--when I first read it I was going 'WHAT"?? and that's not a hotel room- I live in Vegas, and have never seen a hotel room like that- it's too personal- and girly- I'm still holding out that's it's her apt. :p
