Re: Grissom&Sara #23 - Hot, Butt-Kicking, Chainsaw Wielding
The difference being that Sara is willing to suck up her pride and say it in front of Grissom, without any real prompt. I mean, she comes in there to tell him about Ecklie, not because she saw Grissom's dead twin brother Gus on an autopsy table and began pondering her love for him.
lol. yeah, i think it's the biggest thing that differs sara and grissom. she was always able to tell him how she feels, while he never really showed much interest in her verbally. i mean, yeah, they flirted and all, but it's something he does with many women.
this is also why, and i mean sara's boldness in expressing her feelings to him here, i believe SF theory wouldn't be so impossible. just think of it, would YOU say something like in Snakes to a guy (for like the 4th time) who doesn't show signs of interest, and even refused to have a dinner with you? maaan, i wouldn't. well, the thing is that maybe her feelings to him were so damn strong that she just had to tell him.
another thing is, that it might've been Butterflied only, that allowed her to be so confident in Snakes. in IE she seemed a lot more reserved in how she expressed her feelings. a second after she saw his confused face, she backed up and run away in embarassement. in Snakes, boy, this sara is completely different. she states what she wants, how she feels, she sees Grissom is uncomfortable but what she does next? she confesses even further, smiles at him, and finishes the conversation like they talked about coffee and donuts. i don't know if this change was made by butterflied only or maybe something more. it would mean, nothing happened in SF but something did between IE and Snakes.
about date with Sofia, i think it was made mostly to make the GSR timeline less obvious. if it didn't happen we would all know it was Snakes and Nesting Dolls a turning point, but knowing Grissom is a very ethical and honest guy, he wouldn't date Sofia and Sara at the same time.
