Ok, I was talking with Matt tonight about the serial killer thing. A lot of us have speculated that the serial killer will go after Sara. So, my season 7 finale would be chuck full of GSR and wicked, crazy serial killer guy. I'd love for them to be at work, it's Sara's day off, so Grissom isn't worried about her, and the model comes in... of Sara's bedroom, Sara sprawled on the floor. Cath is confused, but Gris recognizes his woman's room and takes off. He finds her, unconscious, bleeding heavily on the floor. Well, we fast forward to Greg and Warrick processing the scene. Greg collects evidence, a little more affected, while Warrick takes in the room, trying to treat it like any other crime scene. Warrick, being the married man he is (if he still is by then) takes in that the room is built for two. The nightstands are both cluttered with different personalities. Greg remarks that he'd hate to be the one to tell Sara's boyfriend what happened, and Warrick responds that the boyfriend already knows. In his hand, from one of the nightstands, is a picture of Grissom and Sara on a rollercoaster together (one of those souvenir photos... and the two of them on a rollercoaster wouldn't be too odd since Grissom took Warrick on a rollercoaster ride and didn't jump his bones afterwards). The news gets through, and Grissom comes in to work. He has to work this case. Ecklie tries to take Grissom aside, having heard (as everyone else did) about Grissom's attachment to Sara (c'mon. Things don't stay secret in this lab). Grissom gets to give a great speech involving a sick b****** who's playing with them, who went after the woman he loved (because I can't picture Gris saying, "Girlfriend") and that this sicko is obviously trying to peck at Grissom, so Grissom doesn't have time to deal with Ecklie... The case goes on, and the pieces come together, and Grissom realizes the killer knows Sara survived. Grissom doesn't know how, since they kept it out of the press and had her under an assumed name, but the killer knows. Grissom takes off for the hospital, gun on his side (because Brass advised him to do it for safety's sake). Grissom goes into Sara's hospital room, but she's not in the bed. She's on the floor in the corner, a gun held against her head. The killer was waiting for Grissom. Grissom tries to talk to the person to reason with them, but it's not until Brass walks in, not knowing what's going on, that Grissom gets his chance. Sara pulls away from the killer as Grissom shoots the guy in the chest several times. Sara crawls across the floor, and Grissom drops down to meet her, taking her in his arms as she cries. Brass calls for a doctor to attend to the bleeding murderer. Fast forward. Grissom's office, cleaned out. Grissom packs the last box, and Ecklie appears over his shoulder. The two talk, and don't end on bad blood. Ecklie's a jerk, but a good guy at heart, so he lets Grissom know, that why he doesn't agree with his actions, he understands them. Fast forward again. Grissom and Sara sit on the couch, her leaning againt him. Some time has passed, since her wounds are completely healed. The two chat, but as the chat goes on, we realize they're not alone. The whole gang is in the room, talking, reminiscing, bemoaning the loss of their supervisor and friend. They also discuss the case, and how no remnants of the models have been found... strange. They all end with a toast, delivered by Grissom, talking about this family they made. He wasn't prepared for it, but it happened, and he's so glad it did. However, as they toast and clink glasses, we pass across a room, a table, small tools... We don't know where we are, but we end on a model of Grissom's office, a Grissom doll inside. End Season 7.
