I agree...the person killed is the new ME.
The person leaving I think will be more a threat of Calleigh leaving the lab for some time off & needs a break, but then after "whoever" gets shot, she'll return.
As for the person shot, ive got my money on Frank or Natalia. Like one mentioned before, yes Frank is due for something, but so is Natalia & the characters only "play" this season has been her gun permit & focus on the fact that she isn't the best of shots.
Don't get me wrong, I would love to see Horatio bleed:lol:
But, the man has walked away from soooo many odd situations...a blown up car...escaped without a scratch from a shootout involving 12 or more Mala Noche gang members ...seriously...& now Im supposed to believe that he will get shot by a measily bullet after he has been played as Mr. Invincible this long.
I think in a way, what the title suggests & all that involved is supposed to make us believe that it will be H, but I just somehow don't see him ever being taken down by a bullet.
It would actually seem rather lame for that to happen at this point. His character needs some "human" side but If he is going to bleed, I would want to see it happen differently & not be "just shot".
