Re: Grissom&Sara #23 - Hot, Butt-Kicking, Chainsaw Wielding
okay after rewatching that scene ten times and reading everybody's opinions, also remembering of my first impression of this scene i gotta say that yesterday's GSR was:
1) very positive
2) the most flirty Sara we've seen so far
3) the biggest implication of Sara being horny (lol)
4) Grissom being Grissom
Sara was smiling the WHOLE time and she was extremely flirty. the last sentence was like "you better come to bed right
now", which means she would like him for dinner. ehem.
the only thing was his expression, like i said earlier. but i think we tend to exaggerate it a bit. firstly it lasted like 2 maybe 3 seconds. i don't think he was negative towards her in this scene at all. his little smile when he was quoting (which was btw the cutest, and i melted and died) proved he wanted her to be there. also his "this sucks" is something he wouldn't say to anybody else. he has to be very, very comfortable with this person to say something that ... un-Grissom, something that simple and non-educated.
therefore, my choice on the poll was definitely no. 1.
Can I just say that I was TOTALLY right, Adzix? Did I not say that they'd make us wait for a whole episode without seeing them together, and then suddenly we'd get GSR?
are you saying you stated this in one of the spoiler-boxes? uh huh, raaat'.
I don't think Grissom's face had anything to do with Sara. He is thinking about taking a sabbatical to go teach. GRISSOM. LEAVE. WORK? That doesn't happen. So, it's kind of a big deal for him and he must be more than a little worked up about that AND about telling Sara about it.
yeah, i agree
SnowAngel. but i think he can just explain it ... honestly. i don't believe he would try to be not sincere with her in a situation like this. or any other. i guess he could just say something like that, simply:
G: Sara, i need to talk to you.
S: *looks expectanctly*
G: i received a letter inviting me to go on a sabbattical. entomology convension.
S: *lightly* That's good. Are you going to accept it?
G: I don't know yet *shrugs*
S: You know, you deserve a break.
G: *hesitantly* Yeah, well. I just don't want to leave you for so long.
S: *smiles* I'll be okay.
and that's it. no hard feelings, no double meaning, everything is clear. sometimes the simpliest way is the best.
Maybe she had a different paper and had already done the crossword puzzle in that one. That may be why she really didn't look at the puzzle too hard before delivering her line. Just a thought.
good explanation
Ashes. i actually think it's the best so far.
