CSI Files
Captain
If <font color=yellow>George Eads</font> (Nick Stokes) could write one episode of CSI, his character would most likely not survive.
"I would like to do an episode in which I'm in a bar and I overhear people saying we did poorly on a case. I go over, start a fight and get my [behind] kicked. I get beaten up," Eads said at the CBS post-press conference party. "At the end of the episode, Grissom asks me, 'Are you still fighting?'"
But Nick Stokes has already been on the brink of death. The character was buried alive and attacked by fire ants in the season finale "Grave Danger." It wasn't a disturbing experience for the character alone; Eads found himself perturbed about it even when he was home. "I took it very seriously," the actor said. "I contemplated my own death."
Eads's performance in the episode showered him with praise from critics all around the country. Eads gave credit to "Grave Danger" director <font color=yellow>Quentin Tarantino,</font> who has been a fan of the show since the pilot. "He told me things that showed he knew more about my character than I did," the actor said. "I hold him in such reverence. There's nothing I wouldn't do for him."
Lastly, Eads discussed last summer's firings, which, the actor claimed, was a learning experience. "I'm a more mature businessman now," he said.
