CSI Level One
I agree and disagree with two sides here.
I think that because this is the season premier and it's about the 'team' that Ryan and Nat should play more than the little bits I know they're going to get. We have to keep in mind that there is a present day team that the series has worked hard to accumulate, I do not think that Ryan and Nat should be cast aside as place holders in this episode or any other episode this season as they already have, let alone in an episode that is supposedly trying to unite the team on Eric's behalf.
However, I can live without them being in the flashback if they can't make it work right. I don't think that excluding Ryan and Nat's 5 second long scenes devalues their presence on the team today. That shouldn't be the determining factor- the rest of the season should be! We can only hope.
About Horatio's quote, I can understand the emotional weight of the situation had something to do with the line, but at the same time it confused me. I like to think Horatio has a special relationship with every individual of his team.
