THE CSI TEAM INVESTIGATES A CRIME SPREE OF BRUTAL TOURIST BEATINGS.


The CSI team investigates a series of brutal tourist beatings that take place within the span of a few hours throughout the Las Vegas area. -- When an innocent man is brutally attacked and beaten to death by what looks like a monster in a black cape, the CSIs are called to investigate -- only to learn that a similar attack took place moments later. As the crime spree continues, the team follows the trail of evidence until Greg interrupts a beating in action and must make a difficult decision that could impact his life forever.

Kevin Federline guest stars as Cole Tritt, an arrogant teenager who harasses Nick and Warrick at a crime scene. Victoria Recao ("The Insider") guest stars as a reporter.

I heard Greg ends up in the hospital.

I hope he doesn't die. Or that he's not in a coma. I had enough of that in the S2 finale of CSI:NY, I nearly went mad with anxiety over Don.
 
There are several rumors that have been going around since heaven knows how long, about greg dying or Eric leaving, NEITHER is true. As of this moment what we know for sure is that Eric is signed until the end of this season.

The show has not been officially renewed for any seasons past this one, and none of the actors have officially come out and mentioned re-signing, just unofficial statements on the actors.

Now back to the Topic, again Greg is not going to die and as far as I know coma is out as well. I think he just gets injured a bit.
 
I posted a few promo pics on the picture thread.

Don't worry...
Greg won't die or be in a coma, Sara proceses him at the hospital where he is awake and talking. He gets the crap beat out of him but he'll live. :D

What a shame that such a cute face has to get bruised up! :(

I agree it will be hard to watch but I also like angst. Maybe we won't see as much of the fight as we think. They could always go back and forth from the fight to something else. They may show some of it in flashback form too like if Greg tells what happens. It's going to be sad either way.

I hope it beats GA in the ratings too, I can see it because people naturally like to watch pain & suffering. Seeing a main character in a life or death situation attracts viewers.

I think that they will also show the beating scene in flashback as Nick and Warrick go over the sequence of events and try to piece it all together. They might even show the part where Greg's hair gets yanked out in slow motion.

I agree with those who think this episode might just put "CSI" over the top ratings-wise against "Grey's Anatomy." If this one doesn't do it, I don't know what will.

Unfortunately, there's also the K-Fed angle that people will want to watch, if only to make fun of him.

I plan to keep my VCR programmed on all the entertainment gossip shows this week because I think this episode will get some major coverage.
 
I don't think Greggo will die or be in a coma, you know how they play everything up in the promos to make it look more dramatic than it really is. He'll probably just take a pretty bad beating like Wojo said.
 
Hmm, I'm looking forward to Greg&Sara scene. I mean, I don't want to watch Greg beaten up. What I'd like to see is the scene that Sara holds his hand (or vice versa, not sure - -"), I've heard so. :D

And according to this scene, I think CSI's rating should be better too.
 
Yeah thats what I was thinking.. Everyone is going to want to see Greg get beat up. Im excited for their scene too Gloomy :D
 
I was looking on the official CSI site and it said that K-Fed was guest-starring in this epi. I though he was guest-starring later on, in another one?
Thank goodness CSI doesn't come on Fridays... this coming Friday is Friday 13th!! :eek:

I agree, this epi, is going to be EXTREMELY hard to watch. Especially for me, because I cry easily. I cried each and every time I watched 'Play With Fire' until the sixth or seventh time I watched it... I cry at every Greg-centric epi... or any epi where anyone gets hurt. (Which is basically this one, and it's both of my reasons combined.)
I can't wait for the Sandle scene, though!! All my mom will here is a bunch of squee-ing from my room- she'll think there are a bunch of mice in there or something! :lol: :D
 
I don't want to see Greg get beaten, I just don't, that preview was more than enough, I think that is the way they are going to show it, like they do when they re-enact the crimes, with that sort of distorted lens, and personally, I really wouldn't mind that at all.

I had been worried about a coma too, then the other spoilers came out, so I was fine after that, and that hand holding scene, now that will be good to see, I'm not a Sandle shipper, it's just because it's someone comforting him.

Do we know for sure it's only Sara that processes him.

I've been waiting for this epi for a long time, now it's almost here and it's I'll say what I've already said about it, it's going to be very VERY painful to watch. But Eric should totally shine in it.

The bright side, he's bruised and injured, but he's not dead, he's not in a coma, he's at least alert and that's something.

But still, it's GREG!!
 
IS there anyone else who think it will be a riot to watch Kevin Federline getting socked? I mean I'm sure it will be more then just us Nick and Warrick fans cheering our boys on as they take Kevin to task?

Go Nick! Go Warrick!!!
 
Thank goodness CSI doesn't come on Fridays... this coming Friday is Friday 13th!! :eek:

hehe. i see it on fridays, at least im not superstitious.
BUT...i am sorta worried about this ep. im worried that we, especially solme people, are getting too excited and we will be dissapointed. other than the greg storyline (which i am looking forward to, i love greg) it sounds like de ja vue to popping tags. that really worries me. i am still looking forward to it, greg will be great, but im trying hard not to get my hopes up too high.
 
This week is going to go by way too slow!!! Argh..LOL, I'm such an angst whore. I'm soooo excited.. I'll probbably un-hook my phone that night! LOL!!!

Squeeeeee!!! FIVE MORE DAYS

**Edited to add something lol**

I can totally see everyone getting their hopes up and then bam, it not being all THAT great... but I mean..Greg + Beaten + hospital + burises and cuts... I'm thrilled! LOL, they could show the fight, and make it as long as the promo (30 seconds) and I'd be ecstatic!! LOL. :) :)
