CSI Files
Captain
When <font color=yellow>Rory Cochrane</font>'s character Tim Speedle was fatally shot in CSI: Miami's season three opener, "Lost Son", viewers assumed they'd seen the last of the laid back detective. But Miami fans will get a chance to see the popular detective once again when he mysteriously shows up in "Bang, Bang, Your Debt!", the second episode of Miami's upcoming sixth season. CSI Files' <font color=yellow>Kristine Huntley</font> caught up with Cochrane to find out what it was like for him going back to the show after a three year absence.
CSI Files: So you're coming back to CSI: Miami for a bit next season. That's exciting news!
Rory Cochrane: I don't want [anyone] to get the wrong impression that I'm coming back because I just did one episode. Contractually, when I left, that was part of the agreement. Along with not being able to do television for four years, I would owe them an episode or two per season, and I guess they just decided to exercise that three years later.
CSI Files:: So they didn't have to call and convince you to come back?
Cochrane: Well, it's the sort of thing I could have said no to. But I figured I didn't have any hard feelings towards anybody there--I like the cast, the crew--so why not go back for one episode?
CSI Files: So as far as you know, you're only going to appear in one episode?
Cochrane: Yeah, that's as far as I know.
CSI Files: Were you surprised when they called you three years later and asked you to come back?
Cochrane: Yeah, I was a little surprised.
CSI Files: We've heard rumors that Delko (<font color=yellow>Adam Rodriguez</font>) is going to hallucinate Speedle. How do you feel about the way the writers decided to bring the character back?
