Season 9 *Spoiler Lab* Discussions P3

That sounds like a similar plot of one of those earlier spoilers that all came out at once. Seems like they weren't all so false after all? The original spoiler had Hodges and Riley as hostages and it also said that Greg was going to do something that may end his career as a CSI - I wonder if that is also true? (Event hough David Rambo says he has no knowledge of it)

original spoiler:

 

A Level 1 and Level 2 can work by themselves. They do not need to supervised. I'm sure for a Level 1 there is a training period and after that they can be on their own.

Yes, even a dead body.

 

Hey, it could have been! We all know that guys attention span!

I think having Langston and Riley held hostage(that is, if it's true) is that maybe the originals (Cath, Nick, and Greg) can work their magic and find them. Plus, Riley and Langston are the newcomers. You can't have them go a season without being put in danger! That would be sending them the wrong message.

As far as the whole Taylor Swift episode, I am looking forward to it. Not just because of Nick ansgt, but because I want her to prove me wrong, and show that she can carry an episode. I want to see what kind of acting chops this girl really has. Plus, I'm a big fan of her music.

The spoilers seem like they are half true and half false based on recent developed storylines. It's a shame Stokes on Duty got the boot, but IMO, Nick has more than enough ansgt in his life, especially with Turn, Turn, Turn coming next week. Can't Catherine get some drama, and when I mean drama, I mean a full completed story arc, por favor?

 

I know what you mean about Catherine, but she had seven seasons of angst and amazing story arcs where Nick had one or two episodes every three or four seasons. So it's not such a stretch for him to have more than one story arc this season.

And Stokes on Duty sounded so good because we've been given some glimpse into Nick's rage throughout the seasons and to me it appeared we were going to see some kind of repercussion of those scenes. A comeuppance so to speak.

 

I don't think Catherine has had THAT much angst, definitely not seven seasons worth. Between Nick and the hooker, Nick being molested, Nick chasing everyone, and Nick being buried alive, I think he's had way more angst IMO of course. Plus, I think Turn, Turn, Turn will still give us a peek at his inner most issues. I think we saw alot of rage from him in For Warrick. It wasn't enough in my opinion, but we haven't seen much from anyone els eon the show except for Grissom.

I think TTT will shed light on Nick's issues. Not technically pertaining to Warrick, but enough to hold us Nick fans over if you ask me.

Plus, does Nick really need to whip his gun out AGAIN?!?!

No Way Out is sound good, I think Langston and Nick will make a better hostage then Lanston and Riley. I think Rily will get on the guy's nerves by talking to him like her parents does. I will be watch it.

 

Was this an official CBS press release? Because I find it rather curious that there is no record of such a writer existing, on IMDB or anywhere else on the web, aside from other reports of this spoiler. On an episode this important-sounding, I really can't imagine TPTB relying on a writer with no past experience in movies or TV (at least if IMDB, which I generally find to be quite reliable is any indication).

It's probably right, but I'm crossing my fingers that it's not. Like everyone else, I don't love the combination of CSIs taken hostage. I like both Riley and Ray, but I'd rather see one of them paired up with one of the established characters on this one.

 

I agree with you, but maybe the writers are trying to develop these new characters and thought this might be a way of doing so.

Just a guess.

 

It's an official CBS release. Fulvia Charles-Lindsay is a freelance-writer and this is his first script for the show.
