I'm kind of in the middle with this episode. I loved the character's stuff but the case was a bit slow. Maybe it progressed that way because this one is a setup for next week, IDK. Still it had good and amusing moments.
Things I liked:
-The girl not dying.
-Ryan and the dog:guffaw: that was sooooo funny. The way he kept telling the dog to relax almost made me spit the water I was drinking :lol:.
-The banter between Eric and Calleigh over the can she brought him to process the print :lol:. What she said about blaming Ryan reminded me of the time in season three when she send him over to autopsy where Alexx was boiling the head and she and Eric had a good laugh over it. We need more banter like this.
-Eric using the cool technique to lift the print. Eric is kind of the print lifter of the team. IDK, but I automatically think of him when I think of print lifting scenes.
-Ryan saying "what that means is that you are a moron and that now instead of going to prison you've delayed going to prison" something along those lines. That was funny :lol:.
-Ryan and the animal control lady.... cute
-Horatio doing some actual work with gloves and everything in the crime scene
.
-Calleigh and the bag over her head and then going into full CSI mode to preserve evidence, you go Cal!! Plus Eric worrying about her
.
-Pissed Eric with weird photographer dude.
-Frank getting photographed :thumbsup:
-Ryan's "whatever, man" to Eric :lol:. Yeah Eric, Ryan kind of knows.
-Horatio's evil little smile. That was funny :lol:.
Things I didn't like:
-The case was a bit slow.
-Horatio not responding to Calleigh when she asked him if he was ok after the shooting. That really bugged me.
The characters really saved this one for me cause I was not impressed with the case.
Since jealous Eric is kind of being frowned upon I want to express my two cents on the topic. I don't think his reaction is childish or junior high at all. I think that Eric is still working on his insecurities and that being in a committed relationship will bring that out even more. I think that his jealousy was not over the top, crazy, psycho boyfriend type of thing. Calleigh saw right through it, reasurred him and the little smile he had in the ends makes me think that he was ok with it and especially with "tonight". Plus later on we see them talking again and he was totally ok. Even without the insecurities that have rissen after getting shot we could see that jealousy was not something foreign to him. We could say he got jealous and kind of angry when he learned that Natalia had invited Ryan to her gathering back in season 4. So I think that jealousy is something that Eric may struggle with and that most probably it'll be something he will have to work on now that for the first time (that we know of) he is in a serious, committed relationship. Something that, by the way, has to freak him out a little. This is new territory for him and there are a few things he'll just have to learn how to deal with along the way. I loved that Calleigh was so nonchalant about it and I think that her being that way will definitely help him through it. We all have our issues to sort out when we first get into a serious relationship, this is Eric's.
