Adzix that's pretty much how i see 8.1 happening too, it will be well into the episode before they find her, if not pretty much right at the very end, there will be lots of leads and lots of dead ends with the team getting more and more frustrated and more and more worried about finding her alive.
Brass will have to be held back from going after natalie with a bucket of bleach :lol:
yes I def think there will be time jumps back and forth, keeping us in suspense. i think we're going to be getting flashbacks to quite a way back through s/7 - they've been building this storyline for a whole season, stands to reason that there will be tiny clues here and there scattered throughout the season which the team will eventually piece together to work out what's going on.
yeah i agree butterflied, i don't want to see eps and eps of Sara recovering from her ordeal and pitty towards her, I don't think that's a very Sara thing anyway, she would want to be in work as soon as possible, getting on with life, just like she always has.
I don't think the possibility of them already being married is that unlikely - i mean how long do you think they were living together before we found out? they were very evidently settled in, there was never any suggestion up until the "i wont wait up" comment that them living together was even something they'd talked about, we never got any suggestion of either of them moving (well, not that i can recall anyway), so who knows what else has been going on behind the scenes that we don't know about?!
edit to add: cheesy thought moment! they eventually find Sara and realise she is still alive- sighs of relief all round, shot changes to in Grissom's office and the cocoon we all thought had died, hatches.
you know you're obsessed with GSR when...
you're sitting reading the spoilers about whether or not Sara survives, and a butterfly flys through your open bedroom window, and you instantly think "ooooh a butterfly! it must be a good omen!"
