CSI Miami - Episode 425 - One of our Own

[Jojo]

And the mole is...........Natalia Boa Vista (I soooo guessed correctly!! :cheer: )

Excellent finale, full transcripts aren't up yet, so can't post them (will as soon as they are available) but just watched it and theres going to be fireworks next season!!!

Two characters did die, but fear not!! The first character being Marisol Delko Caine (as we already knew) and the other Officer Jessop, who we haven't met before. (wipes forehead in relief!!)

Horatio and Eric find the guy responsible for ordering the hit on Marisol, and then he is deported to Brazil, rather than tried for his crimes, for co-operating with the Feds, so Horatio's last words - "we're off to Brazil"!! :cheer: I can see revenge coming next season!!

The Feds arrive in the lab to investigate some missing evidence money (to the tune of $12,000) and it turns out, its the DA, who is wanting to get the lab closed down, so even though Boa Vista is the mole, the only thing shes been leaking is what a great lab it is. Which hasn't really pleased the Feds.

Great finale - roll on Season 5 :D

I thought it was valera who was the mole that what I read on miami trascript for the show, unless I read it wrong. I'll try and find it. Valera was the one who was sacked last year for messing up the DNA samples

[Jojo]

I watched it yesterday kath - the mole is definitely Natalia - she was put in the lab by the Feds to report to them on the goings on in the lab and admits it to Eric.

The promotional transcript shows Valeria being led away by the feds for questioning about the disappearance of some evidence money, but Calleigh, Ryan and Eric (plus a couple of the other lab staff) are also questioned, and it turns out it was the DA who stole the money whilst her fiance is taking a phone call. But the promo can lead to thinking that its Valera, but I can definitely confirm it isn't.

Right I did read the transcript again what you have posted that's why I thought it was valera but it's not, can't wait until we see it

[Jojo]

Right I did read the transcript again what you have posted that's why I thought it was valera but it's not, can't wait until we see it You'll love it Kath - in the promo transcript they are really trying to play us the view - even to where the feds arrive and haul Valera out of the lab too - you still think its her and then....bam...you find out its not lol

Hopefully the write up should be posted in the next day or so :D

[Em]

Review:

Five Mala Noches are gunned down at a Miami mansion, but the situation gets much worse when Officer Aaron Jessop opens a cabinet and discovers booby trap with an armed grenade, which explodes, killing him. The pressure is on the lab on another front when FBI agents enter the lab, intent on finding the person who lifted $12,000 collected from the raid of the Mala Noche safe house from an evidence envelope. Everyone in the lab is under scrutiny, starting with Valera. The CSIs trace the bomb to a man named Carlos Santigo, whose last job was for Antonio Riaz, the Mala Noche boss responsible for the murder of Horatio's wife and Delko's sister, Marisol. Santigo admits to setting the bomb as his last job for Riaz, and Horatio sends him along with a threatening message for the Noche boss. Calleigh identifies the bullets used in the shooting as being Russian made, and Horatio gets Memmo Fierro, the man who shot Marisol on Riaz's orders, to admit that Riaz had been dealing with Rafik Ohmad, an Arab arms dealer.

The CSIs relate their handling of the Noche money to the FBI agents. Each CSI made his or her own opening into the envelope and sealed it with his or her own initials. Ryan is shocked when the FBI agents ask him about his eye problems, inquiring if he has keratitis. Ryan confronts Dan Cooper, suspecting the lab tech of being the mole, but Dan said it was a one time accident, a piece of information that slipped out over beers at a local bar. Tension mounts in the lab, and Delko warns Natalia Boa Vista that the Feds will soon be talking to her, but she quietly assures him they won't. He's shocked as the realization hits him: Natalia is the mole. Though she insists she only shared good information about the lab with the feds, the rest of the team shuns her.

Horatio confronts Ohmad, who supplied the Russian weaponry to Riaz. He admits to meeting with Riaz in the financial district, and surveillance tapes offer a shocking revelation: Riaz was in the area a few with a woman who turns out to be Marisol Delko. Riaz would occasionally sell drugs himself under the name Diego, and Marisol, ignorant of his true identity, apparently bought from him. Horatio is enraged, and calls the number Marisol had for Diego. Riaz boasts about killing Marisol, and vows more destruction. Horatio and Delko examine plastic wrap from Rafik's warehouse and find evidence it once housed a surface to air missile. Realizing Riaz has it, the CSIs track him to an airfield where he taking aim with the missile at an incoming plane. The CSIs stop him just in time and take him into custody.

Everyone at the lab save for Ryan has been cleared of stealing the Noche money, but Ryan is suspicious when he notices white powder from latex gloves on the breached evidence envelope. The lab doesn't use that type of gloves, leading the CSIs to Peter Elliott, the treasury agent who also handled the money. Calleigh is shocked when he produces the money when confronted, but he's not the thief. His fiancée, SA Monica West, stole the money to make the lab look bad. Peter reluctantly agrees to wear a wire and gets her confession on tape, and she's arrested. Justice served, Horatio and Delko visit Marisol's grave, but there's a shock in store for them: the Feds have cut Riaz a deal and are sending him to Brazil to stand trial. Horatio isn't about to let his wife's killer get away, and he tells Delko they're following Riaz to Brazil.

Is Brazil where Yolena and Lil Ray went?

[Jojo]

Yes Em, Yelena, Ray and Ray Jnr all went to Brazil at the end of Season 3. It will be interesting to see if they have an episode showing Eric and Horatio in Brazil, or if it starts from when they get back.

[Em]

i hope they do a cross over it woudl be a good story. it wil be interesting to see if they involve Ray or Yolena as they are in the same country
