i loved Natalia last night!
Me, too! She was a beast.
She got to drive the Hummerrrrrrrrrrrr. (Sorry, Frank. Maybe next time.)
I loved her whole demeanor when her and Tripp found the "kidnapped" woman. She let the woman know who she was, she repeated several times that the woman was safe, she knelt down to be level with the woman as opposed to towering over her, she was compassionate, she explained what was going to happen, she rubbed the woman's back when her and Frank helped her up, etc., etc.
I wonder if any of her actions there were inspired from her own past. Last season during the episode
"Shattered,
" she implied to Ryan that she'd been at a crime scene prior to the one they were at: "Second. First by choice." Maybe that's how the police acted toward Natalia when they arrived at her own crime scene? Or maybe Natalia helps out a lot more with her underground group and actually helps rescue and/or help and/or calm the abused women down...
Either way, it was nice to see that side of Natalia. Very professional and very compassionate.
And then when her and Horatio were interrogating the woman... (Was Kathy her name?) "We would call that a confession." That was one of several awesome lines from her last night.
...When is Natalia going to get qualified for a gun? SRSLY. What's the hold up?
Another awesome line of the night: "Very
Indiana Jones." The deliverance, to me, was really funny.
I liked the exchange between Natalia and Valera... it was cute! "Nat, I'm a DNA girl. You're gonna have to help me on this one." ...I'd love to read a fic about their friendship, or something. I mean... they must've spent an awful lot of time together in the DNA lab last season.
One question I have is how does Natalia know so much about these diamonds? She just started spewing out all of this information... It was kind of like "whoa, okay..."
For some reason, I was really surprised when the jewelry store owner called Natalia "Officer." I was like: "..." It just sounded weird. "Officer Boa Vista." Heh.
She gave a shout out to Google! Wooooooo! (I'm not sure why I found that so funny.)
Did anyone else notice that she took H's stance when she was talking with him in the hallway? He was looking down one way, she was looking the other... I giggled through that whole scene.
I LOVED the look Natalia gave the jewelry store owner after her and Ryan handed over the search warrant and went into the back room. That was great.
Another look I loved was the one Natalia and Ryan shared after the jewelry store woman said to keep the police out because they'll scare her staff. It made me giggle. They were kind of like, "well, okay, then."
Ryan
loves saying Natalia's name, doesn't he?
I also thought the one scene with her and Ryan in the attic of the jewelry store was great, too. Did you see how
pissed she was at the woman for having those kids up there? Eva played that really, really well.
Overall, another awesome episode for Natalia and Eva. (And her suit was awesome, too!
)

When she went on the beach with Tripp i was like " girl youre shoes are so gonna be a mess!"
I was thinking the same thing! I was actually focused on her shoes the entire time her and Tripp were walking... I was waiting for the heels to sink into the sand and for her to fall backwards.
