I'd think Flack would be one of the more popular characters with broad appeal across the various demos, so I can't really see them killing him off.
And while I'd love to be proven wrong, still gotta go with Angell as the most likely death. Unless there is some major misdirection going on with plot, I would think Angell or Flack would be the ones to be involved in the transfer of a prisoner to the courthouse -- seems like it would be a big stretch to have CSI's taking on that role....
Also, Danny is my pick to be the CSI in peril at the end -- would seem to fit with some of the previous foreshadowing. I wonder if Flack will be the loose cannon and Danny will get hurt trying to help him.
I don't think it'll be Mac this time....They will probably want him to do the big scenes with Dunbrook, which will probably keep him out of the direct line of fire with the kidnappers for the most part.
The coma scenario sounds a bit too similar to what happened with Louie, but I could see Danny getting badly hurt and having some health issues to deal with going into next season. Could actually be an interesting subplot. None of that seems to fit with a positive, hopeful start to season six, however.
Bottom line is I'm really curious to see how this all plays out and certainly plan to watch, so in that respect, the producers/writers have done their job well.
I could see the death being Flack (if the spoiler about Jess dying is indeed just a red herring). Granted, he is quite popular, but what if EC wants to leave the show? Although we haven't heard anything along these lines, it could be a possibility. I don't think it'd be any of the CSIs because why would they be involved with prisoner transport duty?
I agree that Danny is probably the CSI in peril at the end--he's a dramatic character plus there'd be all sorts of marital drama with Lindsay in the beginning of the new season.
