I *heart* Bobby (almost wrote 'booby'), and y'all will not be free of it until the episode airs - then I'll take my fangirling to the grading thread.
:lol: ha, ...yah, you wouldn't believe the spellcheck I hadda do before I posted in the state I was in.
...Which is what makes me think Lindsay might be the one to die in the finale. Why rush a happy ending if not to bring about more drama?
...don't tease me.
(Brief) spoilers for
#523 - Greater Good
- A girl is killed by being hit with a car. Mac believes that the man who admitted to the crime is, in fact, innocent. It would appear that someone has paid a hitman to kill the man.
- Lindsay is in this episode. She's in labour, and it seems to be taking a while. Stella visits her in the hospital.
eta: I've changed the spoilers, I'm a bit confused by the case but I think that the man was found guilty and served time for killing the girl, but now he's been released someone wants him dead.
Thanks for those.
Hm. Like a regular ordinary person got killed? In NY? Not rich? Famous? Glossy? Or at least spray tanned? Politically connected? Oh wait, there's a hitman gonna be involved. Phew. I was gettin' all worried there.
Luvely. Nuthing will make for more scintillating screentime than watching that infamous expression thru the duration of a long, drawn out difficult labour. I guess they hadda top 5.17 somehow.
Interesting...the baby is coming in ep 523. I hope they hold the cheese.
I was never lactose intolerant prior to DL. This season in particular, things have progressed even further, to the point where TPTB owe me a stipend for eppy pens.
Yes, Danny is there. At least, at one point he is on the phone (from the hospital) talking to Flack. That in itself I found quite interesting, especially as Danny and Flack don't seem to have discussed the pregnancy at all, but he does seem to be getting an update on how Lindsay's labour is progressing.
I suppose he hasta check in with Flack once in awhile, when there aren't obliging strangers milling about in corridors to talk to at random...
Hm. I think they need another scene out at the bar shooting pool over drinks. To bitc- er, engage in deep meaningful dialogue about a few things. The least Flack could do is take Messer out for one last night on the town. He probably woulda, if only Danny had mentioned he was getting ma- um, had some paperwork to take care of, after he stopped by the bank...
Having 25 episodes also fits with what Lenkov said in that recent MegaBuzz question about the last four episodes being "very heavy, Mac and Stella-wise. Mac's father is mentioned in 5.22 ("Yahrzeit") and he seems emotionally involved in 5.23 ("Greater Good"), and the Greek storyline is apparently wrapped up in 5.24 - and I'm guessing Mac's a major part of the finale, as usual.
I guess I don't really mind that. But I am curious about what will lead to emoMac. I mean, when Mac getting emotional warrants a spoiler? :lol: If it's keenly emotional like in Blink, fine. If it's irratemotional like with Ella, um, *sigh* no...
ETA:
Melina Kanakaredes [/B](Stella)tells me: "I'm writing the 24th episode this season, the one right before the finale. I really enjoyed going into a different part of the business." Melina also told me that we should definitely expect to see the traditional CSI: NY finale cliffhanger.
I'm glad Melina's dipping into other realms and that we'll get to see what she's contributed.
So, if one cliffhangar in the past four years equals a tradition because they're doing one this year, well, this illustrates perfectly the bizarre sense of Time TPTB have in general. 'Spalins a lot about continuity, offscreen assumptions, and retrofitting. In fact, I might hafta be impressed. Who knew TPTB were into quantum physics at all.
ETA 2:
Matthew in Indianapolis: Anything else coming up on CSI: NY?
This Wednesday's CSI: NY finally puts Adam Ross right in the action! A.J. Buckley tells us, "This week's episode is really big for me. I'm out of the lab, and I kind of do some heroic things. I actually did my own stunts! I get janked on the table, and it's a big mess!"
Whatever "janked" means. :wtf:
Erm. Hm. A messy jank...? Sounds like the end of a fun night out, actually. ...I wunda if a carrot bong's involved? If not, it sounds like it should be...
AJ doing his own heroic stunts will be fun to see. :bolian:
^Yeah, it will be interesting if they show up in the finale. I wonder if they'd fight Danny for custody of the baby if Lindsay did die. That could be another big storyline next season if Lindsay is the one who dies.
Interesting that they weren't seen previously in a way, say, oh at the trial in Montana where their daughter was testifying about the most traumatic event of her young life. The hypothetical death of Lindsay might change things but at this point it would be a little odd I guess to suddenly have a custody battle ensue when there's been no indication they're a close family? Could be an interesting possible complication for Danny next season I guess.
It would be the greatest of ironies though, if next year not only Danny, but the child, and Lindsay's long lost parents wind up getting more screentime, even if by remote conversational reference alone, than Lindsay's had all this season.
MegaBuzz: We have it on good authority that she will go into labor on or around May 6 — but it may be but the start of a protracted push. We're not saying the CBS procedural would do this, but some first-time moms' deliveries last well until their season finales. CSI: NY's airs May 20
:shifty:
:brickwall::guffaw::brickwall::guffaw::brickwall:
Too f*cking ridiculous for words... gad, please, don't let it happen...
Mind you, if they had the gall to do it that way, I guess we'd know why Danny left the hospital, and the others only pop in for visits or mebbe make a call... :lol:
