(LOL I agonized over a dang title for this thread. I hope this one will do. Am I correct in thinking that NYC is 'Gotham' and it's only 'Gotham City' in Batman?)
The last spoiler discussion thread reached 1000 posts, so I thought I'd bring over what I have and start a new one.

I'm sure I missed some stuff, so make sure you bring over any spoilers I didn't! Now back to your regularly-scheduled discussion...
The last spoiler discussion thread reached 1000 posts, so I thought I'd bring over what I have and start a new one.
Here we go:
7.09 "Justified":
~ There are two victims. One body was definitely buried, and it was discovered when someone tried to dig it up. (I'm not sure if the other body was buried nearby, or if they are just working on two separate cases in this episode.)
~ One woman was stabbed to death 15 years ago (and buried in Central Park). The other was beaten and then shot recently.
~ They are able to identify the killer of the woman who was beaten - an old boyfriend made good on his promise to kill her if she ever tried to run away from him. He found out she was back in town, so he went to find her. She pulled out a gun to defend herself, but he got it away from her. After he beat her, he used the gun to shoot her.
~ The other victim (the one that has been dead for 15 years) is identified as Chief Carver's sister Roni. She was stabbed in Central Park and then buried, and the murder weapon was buried with her.
~ Danny and Flack have a good scene when they go to pick up the guy who beat his girlfriend to death. They get a little roughed up in the process, though.
~ I see mention of everybody but Sid. (That's not to say he isn't there, but I'm not sure if they're rotating people this season - I hope he'll be there, though. It just makes sense for the storyline since they have two victims, and one of them has been dead for more than a decade.)

7.10 "Shop Till You Drop":
~ It looks like Mac and Jo are outside of a department store, and the owner is about to unveil the holiday window display in front of the store. Mac moves off to stop a pickpocket in the crowd, but the real crime is revealed when the curtain moves back to reveal the winter wonderland scene - complete with a dead body.
~ The victim is the store manager, Dave. He was struck in the head by one of the heavy iron arms from a display snowman. The team finds a broken USB connector near the body, and there's burnt skin on one of the display lights that could belong to their killer.
~ Danny and Jo follow a trail of shoe prints to the makeup counter - Danny seems uncomfortable in this ladies zone, but he spots a blood smear on the counter and swabs it. The CSIs ask the woman behind the counter, Tracy, if she saw anybody come by. She says she wouldn't have noticed Dave or anybody else because they were giving away free beauty kits, and it was absolute chaos. They thank her and move on their way, planning to ask for the surveillance camera pointed at the makeup counter - but not before Danny asks for one of the free makeup kits to give to Lindsay.
~ Jo finds a woman named Alena in the dressing rooms - she's upset, and she has scrapes and bruises that indicate she was involved in a struggle. Jo asks if she killed Dave, but Alena insists that he did it to himself. She finally admits that Dave tried to hurt her and she fought back. It looks like self-defense.
~ I saw everybody but Sid mentioned. (As usual, this doesn't necessarily mean anything, and he could still be there.)

7.11 (Untitled for now):
~ The episode opens with a clown buying some balloons and heading to a birthday party. A caterer, Gino, is setting things up for a kid's sixth birthday. The clown walks in, hands the balloons to Gino - and shoots him in the chest.
~ When the cops arrive, they chase the clown around the corner - and discover a bunch of identical clowns on the street. When the cops talk to the clowns, they say there was an ad online. Anybody who showed up on that street (dressed as a clown) at exactly eleven o'clock would get $500 for passing out flyers. They'd get extra if they looked just like the clown in the ad.
~ Mac and Jo visit the man in charge of the clown registry and get the name and address of the guy with that particular face makeup: Stan.
~ When Danny and Flack go to Stan's apartment, they hesitate for a moment. They remember back to a scene in 7.09 when they went to pick a guy up and ran into some trouble. They don't want a repeat of that situation. Luckily, Stan isn't a threat to them. In fact, he's bound and gagged inside the apartment. He tells Danny and Flack that he opened his door that morning, and a guy barged in and pointed a gun at him. He asked how much Stan would make for the day - when Stan said $200, the intruder dropped two $100 bills and knocked Stan out. When he came to, his clown costume was gone.
~ Fingerprints lead to a man named Bobby - Flack doesn't believe Bobby would be involved in something like this. He was a nice guy who ended up as a confidential informant, and then he was put into witness protection and sent out of state.
~ When the NYPD starts looking into a man in witness protection, an FBI agent comes calling. Jo leaves before the man can approach her and Mac - it's her ex-husband, Russ. Russ comes to find her later and says she looks good. He hasn't seen her since she moved to New York, and he asks her again why they're separated. She says they're divorced because they weren't compatible, and he wanted a wife while she wanted a career. Also, he wanted her to take his name, and Jo Josephson just wouldn't work.

7.12 "Holding Cell":
~ A club promoter and Spanish expatriate named Miguel was stabbed three times. His girlfriend, Valeria, went to his apartment and found the door open. His body was on the floor, and his empty wallet was on the floor beside him.
~ Valeria is from Madrid, so she goes to the Spanish Consulate. There is a man there named Hector - he is very protective of Valeria when Mac comes to talk to her. Hector also spends time with Mac throughout the investigation. It looks like he works at a crime lab in Spain (or he used to).
~ Miguel's mother Ophelia is a powerful woman in Spain. She comes to the crime lab and asks if she can take her son's body home. Mac promises to make the call himself.
~ When they go to Miguel's club to ask questions, Danny and Flack see a man (Leonard) acting suspiciously. He's putting some sort of liquid from an eye drop bottle into a glass with shavings from a pill. When they confront him, Leonard knocks glasses off a high top table so broken glass flies at Danny and Flack - when they duck away from the glass, Leonard makes a run for it. There's a room in the club that has nozzles of some sort, and Leonard turns several of them on and uses a lighter to set the vapors on fire. Flames are shooting out of the valves now, and several club goers catch on fire. Flack runs after Leonard while Danny rushes to turn off the valves and grab a fire extinguisher to put out the flames. Flack catches Leonard, and Danny helps handcuff him.
~ The eye drop bottle Leonard was using is filled with chemicals - they match chemical burns found on the victim's clothing. Leonard explains that he takes the chemicals to clubs and uses them to test drugs so party-goers know whether or not they actually got what they paid for. If they're going to do drugs, they should at least know what they're taking. The drops got onto Miguel's clothes during a struggle when Miguel was trying to kick Leonard out of the club.
~ Sid rushes up to Mac in the hallway - the mortuary that prepared Miguel's body called him and said the embalming process may have revealed some new evidence. However, Ophelia took the body before the mortuary could call Sid, and they're on their way to the airport. Mac rushes to the airport as they are preparing to put Miguel's body on the plane. He tells Ophelia that they need to look at her son's body one last time, but she just wants to take her son home and end this nightmare...
~ I see everybody but Hawkes and Adam. That doesn't mean they aren't there, but those are the ones I don't see.

7.13 "Party Down"
~ There's some sort of incident that almost kills a group of people. There's at least one casualty: a young woman named Victoria. It looks like her father (Anthony) might be in the mob or something.
~ Anthony wants justice for his daughter's death - and he isn't concerned about interfering in the CSIs' investigation.
~ There's a Japanese artist (Akiko) who designed some sort of invitation - they are able to identify her as the artist because she puts her own blood in the ink. Flack and Jo go to talk to her, and she's in the middle of a living art installation. There are six nearly-nude models standing side-by-side as the artist paints on them. As Jo leads Akiko away to question her, Flack offers a flirtatious hello to one of the models.
~ I don't see Hawkes, Adam or Sid - but since there's so little to go on, that doesn't mean much.
ETA: More information:
~ There are 20+ people partying in the back of a tractor trailer. The trailer crashes and ends up in the river. Water is rushing in, and the people inside can't get the main door open. One of the guys is able to get the escape hatch open, and most of them are able to get out. There are at least two victims, however, including Victoria.
~ It turns out the main door of the trailer was locked - the crash was no accident. There's also no sign of the driver.
~ A young woman named Jessica comes to the precinct. Victoria was her friend, and she wasn't even supposed to be at the party - Jessica got the invitation. She gives the team her invitation (which was made by Akiko), and they figure out that only a few of the party-goers had invitations like that. The team wonders if they were the intended targets and tries to find connections between them.
~ Sid and Hawkes are there. Still no sign of Adam.

7.15 "Vigilante":
~ A man named Garland Clarke is found dead in a warehouse. It's the same warehouse where a rapist left his victims after kidnapping and assaulting them in the back of a van. They're able to identify Clarke as the rapist, and they bring in his victims to figure out if one of them is responsible.
~ It looks like Jo and Lindsay will have the most connection with the victims (which makes sense).
~ I see everybody but Sid mentioned.
