I am so glad Eric doesnt die, when i was reading it my heart was going fast when i read he might die earlier in the the thread!!
:eek: How could you miss us Hayley?! :D :rotfl:
Eric is one CSI that I forbid to leave!! I don't think it would bother me as much if H left to be honest but Eric - oh he is my eye candy! He's soooo got to stay lol
They can't kill anymore CSI's it was bad enough that speed died but no more :nono:
Quite right Kath - one death in CSI is enough...
I think though, that if Adam were to leave, it would be well publicised so we'd soon hear about it, and even when I heard about this storyline, there was nothing mentioned about him leaving, so I had a feeling that Eric would be safe, but there was always that little bit in the back of my mind that concerned me, that perhaps it was kept under wraps! So glad I was wrong though.
Glad to see they are spicing things up in Miami, can't see them killing off a main character so soon. So it might be a "supporting" character like Boa Vista (?) as people would throw a hissy fit if it was H, Eric, Calleigh or even Wolfe.
According to CSI Files sources, “Broken Home” will open with Heather Connelly, 16, and absolutely terrified sitting in large, stylish living room in the pre-dawn hours. The house is too quiet. A phone rings, piercing the silence. Heather answers the phone. She meets with heavy, raspy breathing on the other end. The breathing turns to a choking sound. It sputters, gasps, then stops. The line goes dead.
Heather puts down the phone and slowly walks upstairs. She yells out, “This isn’t funny. I’ll seriously tell your parents when they get home.” Heather is babysitting 12 year old Justin Molina. As she reaches the top of the stairs, she sees the phone rocking on the hallway floor. She proceeds down the hall to Justin’s bedroom, indicated by a “Keep Away” sign on the door.
Heather enters Justin’s bedroom and finds him lying motionless in a chair. As she runs to him, he opens his eyes and laughs. Heather wants to kill him.
Just as Heather and Justin resolve the cruel trick Justin just played on her, they hear the front door open. The sound is followed by a deep human groan. Justin assures Heather he knows nothing about it and she believes him.
Heather goes downstairs, stopping cold on the last step. In front of her, her father Edward Connelly lies on the floor. With blood running down his head, he looks up at her with pleading eyes, reaches toward her with a blood soaked arm and dies.
Now morning, Horatio and Detective Tripp inspect the crime scene. The Connellys lived next door to the Molinas. Detective Tripp speculates that Edward Connelly came over to check on his daughter once it got late. Heather says it was a weird night because the Molinas never came home.
Heather’s mother, Kristy Connelly, is unaccounted for until Horatio discovers her dead body lying in the bushes.
Horatio brings Dr. Mike Lansky in for questioning after his fingerprints are found on a window sill outside the Molina residence. His prints were in the system due to a DUI during med school. Dr. Lansky admits he was there and even looked through the window. He claims Dave Molina borrowed some tools from him and we wanted them back. He looked through the window to see if they were home. He saw Heather through the window, clad in pink panties and a shirt. She removed her shirt to reveal a camisole underneath. Dr. Lansky claims he didn’t stick around long enough to see who she was with.
Heather is questioned. She admits to removing her clothes and says she was trying on Mrs. Molina’s clothes, when she saw a figure move past the window.
Natalia runs a “victimology” on the Connellys and discovers they were litigious, having sued most of their neighbors for everything under the sun – property line disputes, noise, trees, dogs barking. They won a couple big judgments and that seemed to be their only source of income. Their latest targets were the Molinas.
Calleigh questions Justin Molina and learns that he hates his parents because they’re always out partying and leave him home with the babysitter. He doesn’t mind Heather because “she’s a Britney” and he can sneak out of the house. On the night the Connellys were murdered, evidence on his window screen suggests he snuck out. Calleigh believes Justin might have killed the Connellys if they caught him trying to sneak back into his house.
Please note that the above plot details have not been confirmed by CBS, Alliance Atlantis or Bruckheimer Films, and until such time you should treat this information as you would any other rumour. The above information comes from early script drafts and the details of the episodes are liable to change before the episodes are shown.
Sounds like a really good episode/story/case to me.
So am I glad to hear no one is going to be killed off, just wouldn't be as nice to watch.
In the 17th Episode - “A Grizzly Murder” opens with a group of men hunting white tailed deer in the Everglades – Andy Kelso, 28; Rob Harris, 26; and Dennis West, 29. They’re inexperienced hunters. Harris and West carry rifles. Kelso is armed with a long bow. A group of college buddies on a “guycation.” The group is led by a guide, Chuck Greene, 32.
The group encounters a 7 foot tall, 800 pound black bear. Despite their guides instructions to the contrary, the inexperienced outdoorsmen turn and run. The bear chases and one of the men, Dennis West, is mauled to death.
Horatio, Detective Tripp and Alexx arrive at the crime scene to find the bear muzzled, chained and being taken away by a pair of National Park Rangers. Upon examination of West’s body, Alexx discovers that West had a clear substance on the back of his hunting vest. The substance is vanilla gel, a scented glycerin used to attract bears. West had been used as bait.
West’s buddies, Kelso and Harris, tell Horatio they have no idea why anyone would want West killed. They’re just a group of friends from college who have turned into 60-hour-week desk jockeys and needed to sign-up for a “guycation” to feel like men.
Ryan scans Kelso and Harris with a minirae device and determines that they are also sporting moderate levels of glycerin. Horatio advises them not to go far.
Investigation of the crime scene reveals that West didn’t run very far before he was attacked by the bear. Alexx discovers from West’s medical records that he was in perfect health and ran the Boston Marathon last year. Autopsy reveals that West had a broken knee, with bruising consistent with the butt end of a rifle.
Ryan goes to see the owner of the property the group was hunting on. Billy Southwick, a dirty hill-billy sort. He owns 1250 acres of Everglades property, littered with broken appliances and rusty car rims. Ryan finds a bottle of glycerin. Southwick admits he uses the glycerin to make bear bait, which he sells. Southwick’s client roster includes the hunting guide, Chuck Greene.
Meanwhile, a bloody Trax player is found in a hotel room. The owner of the device is identified as Anna Gallo,23, a beautiful olive-skinned stripper. Horatio locates Gallo and has her brought to the interrogation room because he feared she might be in trouble. Perhaps the blood was hers. Gallo is defensive and unwilling to believe Horatio is actually interesting in protecting and serving. Gallo eventually divulges that she wasn’t at the hotel the night before, like she was supposed to be. She had a co-worker, Tess Gowan, cover for her so she could go to a recording studio and work on a demo.
Gowan’s body is found dumped in the Everglades. Turns out the group Gowan was hired to entertain is none other than the group of buddies on their “guycation.”
A dispo truck carrying weapons assigned for destruction is overturned and Chris Ryder and Matt Cranby, the officers driving it, killed. The CSIs quickly determine it was not an accident--the truck was cornered and an explosive detonated underneath it. DNA on hair found on Ryder's body is traced to Pedro Salvado--a relative of Clavo Cruz, whom Horatio put away for murder several years ago. Suspecting Clavo's involvement in the theft of the weapons, Horatio pays the felon a visit in jail only to witness Clavo stab a guard right in front of him. Clavo sneers that he's entitled to a fair trial. Not far from the dispo truck's crash site, a little boy, Jesse, is found dead in the front yard of his house. Jesse and his siblings are being raised by their older sister Camille, who is working several jobs to support them. The CSIs track down Gilberto Tavez, the children's father, recently released from prison. There's blood in his truck, but he claims he was looking for Camille when the gunshot went off, and fled afterwards.
The CSIs locate the man who detonated the explosive, Richard Williams, and find evidence he handled a military grade weapon. They find a rocket launcher on the list of weapons lost in the theft, and Horatio realizes what Clavo is going to do: escape from the courthouse by hiring someone to fire a rocket into it. Horatio calls Alexx, at court to testify, to warn her, but it's too late: the rocket slams into the building. Alexx is unharmed, but Clavo escapes. The man with the rocket launcher is found dead in his hiding place in a nearby truck. Ryan and Calleigh return to the Tavez house and trace the trajectory of the bullet that killed Jesse. Ryan is chagrined to discover that the shot came from the bedroom of Jesse's older brother, Ben, and the boy sadly confesses that he found the gun abandoned in the trash and took it and played with it, only to have it go off and kill his brother.
Horatio and Dan Cooper review surveillance footage from the courthouse and see that Clavo escaped with a young court stenographer named Kathy Gibson. Horatio gets a call from Clavo, who demands the CSI meet him at the Golden Bank, where Clavo has had a million dollars placed into Horatio's bank account. He demands Horatio withdraw the money, and in exchange gives Horatio Kathy's location: the trunk of a Mercedes in a nearby parking garage. Horatio calls Delko and the two CSIs scour the rooftop level, until they're interrupted by gunfire. Delko is shot in the leg, but Horatio drags him to cover and kills the shooter. But then shots are fired from a different direction, and Delko is hit again, this time in the head....
ooo yay!! this is the one where Eric gets shot! Thankfully he lives, but it sounds like a great episode! full of twists and turns!!
Its the one we've been waiting for Hayley! And the following week will be pretty tense too, although from what I've seen, two episodes and its all pretty much sorted with Eric, but if he was shot in the head, you'd imagine a longer recovery. We shall see though - I'd hate it if he was out of the show for any period of time, so am glad that he shouldn't be missing from our screens lol
In the 19th episode, “By the Book” involves the brutal murder of Doug Latham, President of the Holfcroft Communications Syndicate. Latham essentially owned every media outlet in Miami. He is found dead in a suite at the Agramonte Hotel, stabbed in the abdomen and scalped Indian style.
Latham did not spend the evening alone in the hotel room. He was accompanied by a hooker, Anna Savarro. Latham and Savarro ordered food from room service and from there, things become hazy. Latham and Savarro were both drugged.
Eric and Calleigh go to the Agramonte Hotel and question Jesse Stone. Stone is the food serive worker who delivered the room service to Latham and Savarro. When told Latham and Savarro were drugged via dosed food prior to Latham’s murder, Stone points out that the kitchen is busy and he’s not the only one who had access to it. He simply delivered the food to the room.
Horatio speaks with Savarro. She was drugged along with Latham, but was not murdered. However, her apartment was broken into. Horatio points out that the drugging, Latham’s murder and the fact that her apartment was broken into was no coincidence. He offers to protect her.
While investigating Savarro’s apartment, Calleigh is harassed by Steve Stringer. He points video camera at Calleigh, telling her he catches stories live on film and then sells them to the news programs. Calleigh refuses to comment until she learns that Stringer had been in the neighborhood at the time of the break in because he believed Shaq’s Bentley had been seen and wanted to catch him slumming. Coincidentally, Stringer caught the robber on film exiting Navarro’s apartment.
Back at the lab, the thief’s face from the video is matched with Miami Dade’s Arrest Records Database. A match is found -- Louis Santone. The video also reveals what Santone stole from the apartment. A little black book.
Ryan brings Santone in for interrogation. Ryan asks why Santome passed up cash and credit cards, taking only the little black book. Santome says he thought someone was coming and grabbed the first thing he saw. He didn’t realize until later that it was just an address book. Ryan discredits this story, telling Santome the book was kept in a locked drawer. Santome refuses to admit that anyone may have paid him to steal the book and he turns it over to Ryan. Santome ends up telling Ryan that no one can protect him from the guy he stole the book for.
Is this the one straight after Eric gets shot?
He has recovered already! I see what you mean JoJo!!
Eric is shot in 516, "recovers" in 517 and this is 2 later. Apparently though, he does show signs of confusion etc, so it isn't immediately swept to the side, so there is some continuity there which is good.
Picking up where "No Man's Land" left off, doctors are able to resuscitate Erik Delko, who barely clings to life after being shot twice, once in the leg and once in the head. Calleigh and Ryan process the scene where Delko was shot, and question a security guard named Keeler who arrived late on the scene. He tells them he recalls passing a man running down the stairs of the parking garage. Horatio uses the GPS tracker in the money he gave Clavo to track him down, but he finds the tracker abandoned on the beach--along with Kathy Gibson. She tells Horatio Clavo kidnapped her, but Natalia identifies a wound on her body as being from a hacksaw used to remove Clavo's cuffs. She admits to helping Clavo escape, and Horatio tells her that she'll be charged with murder if Delko dies.
Tripp tells Horatio that General Cruz is in town, and Horatio suspects Clavo has broken out of jail to exact revenge on the man he thought was his father. His hunch proves right when they go to Cruz's house, but Clavo is already there. He shoots Cruz and escapes, and the general dies in Horatio's arms. Natalia is surprised to discover an uncut diamond in Clavo's wake. Calleigh and Ryan get a DNA match off a jacket in a trashcan at the scene to Tanner Wilcox, the man fleeing the scene of the rooftop shooting, but he proves to be a dead end when they learn he was there stealing from cars, not shooting at the CSIs. The teller from Horatio's bank contacts him to tell him the funds placed in his account were transferred by a man named Joseph Trevi. Horatio confronts the man and accuses him of bankrolling Clavo, suspecting it's about the diamonds. It proves to run deeper than that when the CSIs learn Trevi is Clavo's biological father. Trevi admits Clavo gave him the diamonds and that he sold them for 45 million, which he has no intention of sharing with Clavo. Horatio calls Clavo to tell him Trevi gave him up, but Clavo refuses to surrender.
Natalia is able to determine that the diamond Clavo had is from Sierra Leone. She questions Audrey van der Meer, a buyer for Duncroft Diamonds, but isn't able to get any information out of her. The CSIs learn Audrey sponsored a work visa for a diamond cutter, and when they go to her shop, they find the diamond cutter and his whole family slaving away in a back room. Audrey is arrested. When Calleigh and Ryan realize the gun Delko was shot with is a shotgun, they haul Keeler back in and test his other hand for GSR and learn he's the shooter. Clavo paid him a hundred grand to shoot at the CSIs. Clavo arrives at the department, gun in hand, forcing Horatio to shoot him down. Horatio tells Delko, who is recovering, that they got Clavo, and is forced to tell him why his sister Marisol isn't at his bedside.
----------------------------------
Apologies Hayley - I got my episode numbers mixed up, but as you can see, this one is the one following the actual shooting of Eric :(
In the 20th Episode, “Rush” opens on a film shoot. Two men are engaged in a tug-of-war over a gun in an industrial warehouse. During an extended struggle scene, gun shots are fired, the gun is pointed in one man’s face, both end up jumping from the third floor, to the second and ultimately to the ground. One of the men, 28-year old stunt man Rod Vickers, hops into a waiting yellow Corvette and peels out, only to be chased by the other man who runs full tilt while shooting at the vehicle as it speeds off. Vickers loses control of the Corvette and it crashes into a building. The trunk pops open, the driver’s door opens and Vickers slumps out, blood streaming down his face. The Corvette bursts into flames and the director yells, “Cut!”
As crew members tend to Vickers, insuring he emerged from the stunt unharmed, the director questions Vickers as to why he popped the trunk and ruined the shot. Vickers says he didn’t open it. It must have been open before they rolled.
Stunt crew members work to extinguish the flames from the car. One of them drops his fire extinguisher and steps away from the open trunk.
The body of movie star Brody Lassiter, 28, gorgeous even though mostly covered with CO2 from the extinguisher, is stuffed in the trunk.
Horatio and Detective Tripp question Vickers. Vickers was Lassiter’s stunt double. The scene that was being shot was too dangerous for Lassiter to do himself. Horatio complains that investigating will be difficult since the stunt crew sprayed the crime scene with CO2. Vickers responds that the CO2 is standard protocol for fires and his crew wasn’t covering anything. Vickers tells Horatio that he was in charge of the car and that he locked it up the night before, right after the dry run.
Horatio speaks with the film’s director. Lassiter wasn’t expected on the set that morning. His call time wasn’t until noon and he left the set the night before by 6:00 pm, in accordance with the many rules of his contract. The director says many people wanted Lassiter off the movie.
Horatio talks to Eddie Corbett, Lassiter’s assistant/bodyguard. Corbett and Lassiter grew up together. It’s now Corbett’s job to make sure Lassiter makes it to work each day. He had enemies.
After processing the stunt vehicle, Calleigh learns that Vickers was lying about not taking the car off the lot last night.
Delko brings Vickers in for interrogation. Vickers admits that he and Lassiter took the Corvette out partying the night before. Vickers loved going out with Lassiter because Lassiter was in rehab, stone sober, and a movie star who could get into any club in the city -- the perfect designated driver. According to Vickers, Lassiter snuck out of the White Sands rehab center, they went out and Vickers got wasted. At the end of the night, Lassiter drove back to the White Sands. Vickers was too drunk to drive home, so he passed out in the parking lot and Lassiter went inside the rehab center. Vickers woke up an hour before call time and drive straight to the set.
What starts out as an ordinary evening of babysitting for Heather Crowley turns tragic when the bodies of both her parents are discovered outside the house where she's watching over young Justin Montavo. Heather's father, Edward, has apparently been struck fatally in the head; her mother, Kimberly, was killed with a grill fork. Justin's parents are nowhere to be found, but prints on one of the windows of the house lead the CSIs to Dr. Mike Lasker, who claims he came by the house to get tools Mr. Montavo borrowed from him, but left after looking through the window and spotting Heather with a guy. Heather adamantly denies being with a boy. The Montavos finally turn up, claiming they were drugged at the party they attended the night before. Natalia recovers their glasses from the party and finds they test positive for GHB. When the CSIs learn Lasker was at the party as well, they suspect him of drugging the Montavos. He admits to dosing their drinks, but not so that he could rob their house; he suspects they're thieves and wanted to recover a baseball he claims they stole from him during one of his parties.
Ryan examines the Montavo house and recovers the stolen property but learns that it was Justin, not his parents, who is the thief. Justin tells Horatio that Heather had her boyfriend over the night before, and Heather finally admits that she did, and gives the CSIs his name: Zack Griffin. Zack flees the CSIs when they come for him, but they manage to catch him. He tells them that he ran into Heather's father on his way out but that he fled and left Edward alive. One of the items recovered from Justin Montavo's stash proves to be a bracelet belonging to a dead woman named Lucille Clark--a patient of Dr. Lasker's. Horatio speaks with Lucille's daughter Amelia, who is grateful to him for returning the bracelet. Tripp learns that Lasker has lost six patients recently, and suspects that Lasker might be murdering his patients. Horatio decides to have Lucille's body exhumed.
After mixing up two items in his kit and compromising evidence, a dejected Delko finds Natalia puzzling over a dead fly found in Edward Crowley's head wound. Delko realizes the fly is from the murder weapon--Zack's helmet. Calleigh questions Zack and he claims he killed Edward Crowley in self-defense. Things become clearer when Natalia learns Kimberly Crowley recently engaged in intercourse with Zack Griffin. Ryan confronts Heather; it was she who killed her mother after learning of Kimberly's affair with her boyfriend. She and Zack agreed to cover for each other after the murders. When a drug that causes respiratory failure is found in Lucille's body, Horatio has enough evidence to arrest Lasker. Lasker argues that he was saving the terminally ill from bad deaths, but Horatio is having none of it and has him arrested.
Question: Got any CSI: Miami scoop?— Jackie
Ausiello: Ryan lands in some serious hot water when Horatio finds out he used his connections to try to settle a gambling debt. Meanwhile, look for some major sparkage between Calleigh and Delko.
CSI:Miami executive producer Ann Donahue shares what makes tonight’s episode such a challenge for the Miami team. The CSIs face three suspects that share the same DNA in “Triple Threat.”
In “Triple Threat” a businessman is murdered at a charity event hosted by his wife Ashley, who immediately become the primary suspect. During the course of their investigation, the CSIs discover that Ashley has two identical sisters her husband knew nothing about.
Ashley and her sisters (all three roles are played by Leslie Bibb) grew up short on money, but long on money making schemes. They devised a plan for Ashley to marry rich and have a baby. When Ashley turns out to be infertile, one of her sisters steps in and not even her husband notices. Then one of the three kills him, but which one?
The team knows one of the sisters is the murderer, but their identical DNA proves to be tricky. “The sisters are wise enough to never leave DNA,” says Donahue. “But at the end, we do something really interesting with the blood, and we’re able to differentiate. But then there’s another twist.”
When Alexx finds bear lure slathered on the vest of Dennis West, a man killed by a bear while on a hunting trip with two friends, the CSIs realize West is a murder victim. His friends, Rob and Andy, also have traces of the lure on them. The CSIs go to the men's hotel room, where they find blood and a woman's iPod. They are able to match the music on the iPod to purchases made by a woman named Anna Savaro, but when Horatio questions her, she denies ever being in the room and offers up her DNA to prove it. After Rob and Andy are caught trying to flee town with a bloody cooler in the back of their car, the CSIs go back to where the men were hunting and find the body of a young woman. Rob and Andy claim Dennis killed her.
The large pool of blood in the men's room turns out to be male, a match for a bodyguard named Rocco who works at a local strip club. The owner, Joe Mazzaro, tells the CSIs that Rocco accompanied a girl from the club to a job: none other than Anna Suvaro. Horatio questions Anna again, and she identifies the dead woman as Tess Gowan, who she asked to fill in for her that night. Anna worried when she couldn't reach Tess, and she arrived at the hotel just in time to see the men carrying out Rocco's body. The CSIs discover Rocco's body near the hotel and a feather they find on him matches the ones that comprise Dennis's vest. Dennis killed Rocco, but the CSIs still don't know who killed Tess---or Dennis.
Horatio, realizing Joe is a pimp, tracks down Anna and finds her with Supervisor Scott O'Shay. O'Shay threatens Horatio, while Anna tells the CSI that Joe sent her to O'Shay because he blamed her for Tess's death. Alexx has determined that Tess was asphyxiated, literally crushed to death. DNA from semen in her mouth proves it was Andy, who insists it was an accident, a claim Calleigh negates. Rob and Andy put the bear lure on Dennis's vest after he grew a conscious and wanted to confess to what they'd done. The case closed, Horatio warns O'Shay to stay away from Anna, and tells a grateful Anna that Tess's murderer has been caught.
Wealthy real estate developer Dominic Whitford is shot dead during a party while his wife Ashley announces the opening of a new children's hospital. Josh Brockner, Dominic's assistant, informs Horatio that Dominic had quite a few enemies, and it turns out the gun he was shot with belonged to one of them: Neil Massey, who claims his gun was stolen and offers an alibi, which checks out. A blood drop found in the bathroom where Dominic was shot matches his wife, Ashley, and she tells the CSIs she had a nosebleed in the bathroom shortly before giving her speech. She leaves her sunglasses in the interrogation room when she leaves and Delko runs after her to return them, only to see her getting into a car with a woman who looks just like her. When he runs the prints on the glasses, he learns they aren't Ashley's.
Natalia interrogates Ashley and the woman with her--her twin, Kayla Selby. Kayla posed as Ashley for the interrogation so that Ashley could be with her son, Noah. The women tell Natalia that Dominic didn't know Ashley had a twin, but Alexx discovers Dominic had a secret of his own when she finds the medical condition of the man on the table doesn't match what's in Dominic's medical records, and evidence of plastic surgery on the man's face reveals he has been surgically altered to look like Dominic. Dominic's assistant, Josh, admits to the CSIs that the dead man is actually Greg Ramsey, a man Dominic hired to pretend to be him at social functions. Josh points the CSIs to the construction site where Dominic is and Horatio finds him--along with the buried body of a young woman. Dominic maintains that he had no idea there was a body at the site, and Horatio takes him into protective custody. Alexx IDs the dead woman as Mia Graham, Dominic's former assistant, and fingerprint evidence reveals that Josh, Dominic's new assistant is in fact her killer.
The CSIs decide to hold off on telling Ashley that her husband is alive, and turn back to Neil Massey, whom they learn once shot at Dominic and Ashley during Ashley's pregnancy, forcing Ashley to have a C-section. Neil claims Ashley and her twin swindled him out of money. Natalia confronts Ashley and Kayla who insist that Neil is obsessed with Ashley. But Natalia finds a discrepancy in their story: Ashley doesn't have a C-section scar and Kayla was in Africa during Ashley's pregnancy. Natalia is shocked with a third identical woman, Beth, enters the room and admits to being Noah's mother. Natalia knows one of the women is the killer, but it is Delko who finds the key when he tells Natalia to test the blood drop from the bathroom for antibodies. When it's found to have antibodies for infectious diseases native to Africa, the CSIs know Kayla is their shooter. But all three conspired to produce a baby and kill Dominic for his money, and all are arrested. Natalia tells them Dominic is in fact alive and will be raising Noah.
Question: Any CSI scoop?— Shane
Ausiello: Will CSI: Miami suffice? This May, a member of the team will get fired.
Question: Care to be a little more specific on any of the CSI: Miami spoilers you've reported? Ya know, like a hint about who gets fired?— Jackie

CSI: MIAMI -- When Horatio (David Caruso) captures a suspected criminal and must fly him to a different jurisdiction to stand trial, their plane inexplicably loses control and crashes in the Everglades.
Its Ryan Wolfe thats fired......
In the 23rd Episode, “Kill Switch” opens with television newsperson Heather Avery covering a story that has caught Miami’s attention. Local college student Sherry Williamson, 22, was carjacked in broad daylight, the incident captured on the video surveillance footage of a nearby ATM machine.
Grainy surveillance video footage is shown. An Acura MDX is parked across the street from the ATM, a convertible Jag is parked in the immediate foreground. Williamson runs into frame, towards the Acura, with keys in hand. A male attacker approaches from behind, grabs her, elbows her in the head, sending her to the ground. He grabs her keys and peels away in her car. Though the incident is caught on tape, the man’s face is unseen.
Avery announces an in-studio guest. Former CSI Ryan Wolfe. Ryan reviews the footage on camera for the home audience. He explains that the normal human response is to focus on the action, but as a CSI, you’re trained to begin on the outside and work inward. Ryan has the footage played again. After the attacker gets in the car, Ryan has the footage paused. Ryan explains that if you focus on the attacker, his face is never seen. But by analyzing the environment around him, one can learn more. Ryan has an image in the Jag’s rear view mirror isolated, magnified and enhanced. Once the image is blown up to full size, the reflection of the man’s face is seen clear as day.
The same face is seen in the next shot. This time, the face is of a dead man. The attacker, 30 year old Jason Kiley, is found dead in the sand of Haulover Beach just one hour after Ryan identified him on the news.
Due to the news coverage of the carjacking and Ryan’s identification, the beach is full of spectators. Everyone wants to get a glimpse of the public enemy who got what he deserved.
Detective Tripp, Horatio, Alexx and Calleigh are on scene. Calleigh notes that the crowd has contaminated the crime scene, while Alexx discovers that the body has been contaminated as well. The smell of urine is unmistakable. The killer wanted to make a statement. Alexx feels the media blew this way out of proportion and wonders aloud if Ryan fueled the fire. Calleigh responds that he lit the match.
Back at the crime lab, Horatio questions carjacking victim Sherry Williamson. Williamson positively identifies a photo of the carjacker. She explains what happened. She went to get coffee. Parked her car and he came out of nowhere. He didn’t say anything and didn’t have a weapon. Williamson says she wanted justice, but not like this and feels responsible for Kiley’s death. Calleigh pays Ryan a visit at the television station. He called her there to give her a list of names. A man named Derek Lyons phoned a death threat against Kiley into the television station. CODIS reveals that Lyons has a prior for assault and battery.
Horatio brings Lyons in for interrogation. Lyons compliments Horatio on his quick work and says he believes in law enforcement, but sometimes you have to take things into your own hands. Lyons is quick to confess to the murder of Kiley. Lyons says he saw Kiley on the beach, recognized him from tv and beat him to death.
Horatio has Lyons arrested, but knows something isn’t right. It shouldn’t be that easy.
Wonder how Ryan will get his job back stupid boy.
Does anyone know why Wolfe gets fired?
And is this a two parter?
Im glad its ryan and not delko .... now all they have to do is promote the other lab guy (dunno his name but he used to be in a programme called Roswell - hes been out in the field with ryan a couple of times) and I will be a very happy girl!
I have found this:
So this would ring after the ep with Ryan and the dodgy notes - remember when he said he had a few games and that was the payout. So it seems that because Ryan nips off to the pay the guy, and then H finds out, he explains that he can't help Ryan, but if had come to him rather than going alone, then he could have helped in some way.Quote:
Ep 522 is called Burned. The ep is about a woman who is being stalked by her ex boyfriend when her house, who she hares with her new boyfriend burns to the ground. Her new boyfriend ends up dead. The ex becomes a suspect. There seem to be some interesting twists in this one.
For instance, the fire was staged to get away from the stalker ex and so the woman and her new boyfriend could start a new life but something went wrong.
Ryan apparently owes a bookie Ten Grand from playing Texas Hold'em, who becomes a suspect and offers for the debt to go away if Ryan cuts him loose. He doesn't cut him loose but he does get in trouble for paying him the money while on duty. He leaves the case to go meet him and pay him.
Yelena is back in the ep. Shes back as a private investigator, but for how long, not sure
I'm with you though Em - I've never taken to Ryan, even when he had the nail in the eye incident.
We also have:
which all ties in with what I've said.Quote:

He's just to ... cocky for me.
but this does all make sense .. I haven't heard anything about the actorleaving though ... but after episode 23 (where he is the match that gets teh guy killed) would the CSI's have him back? I doubt it (or maybe thats just wishful thinking!)
Question: On CSI: Miami, the dude who get's fired with a capital F — is it the end of him on the show, or will he get to come back?— Rehana
Ausiello: He'll be back, but not before a brief flirtation with TV.
SO Ryan will be back onthe team then. Shame .......
Horatio receives a frantic call from Anna Sivarro, a call girl who has woken up in a hotel room next to the dead body of the man she was entertaining, businessman Doug Lansing. Horatio sends Anna back to the lab with Natalia Boa Vista so that her bloody clothes can be processed while Alexx examines Doug, who was scalped by his killer. Anna recalls getting woozy and passing out, so the CSIs question Jesse Starks, the room service attendant who brought them food, but he denies any involvement. The tox report from both Anna and Doug's systems reveals both were drugged, and the blood pattern on Anna's shirt corroborates Anna's story that she was passed out when Doug was killed and his blood pooled. Delko is suspicious when he sees that Doug emptied the mini-bar of its contents, and he corners Ross Miller, the bellman who restocked the mini-bar. Delko discovers a hefty stash of cash in the trunk of Ross's car, and the man admits to lifting it out of the mini-bar, where he had caught Doug hiding it, when he entered the room and found Doug and Anna passed out. He denies killing Doug.
Natalia finds a pin on Doug's body that he got from Supervisor Scott O'Shay as a gift of thanks for a campaign contribution. O'Shay claims Doug was a friend and says he was giving a speech at the time of Doug's death. Tripp finds out there was more than friendship tying Doug and Supervisor O'Shay together when he learns that Doug and O'Shay are making money off of casinos on Native American reservations. Horatio realizes Anna has been moving the money for O'Shay and she admits she's been doing it for two years. She refuses to tell the CSI what O'Shay has on her until she discovers her house has been robbed and a book listing a deceased call girl's clients is missing. Thanks to a videographer, the CSIs are able to find the thief, Louis Sullivan, but he won't tell them who paid him to steal the book. Inside the book, the CSIs find the names of prominent Miami citizens, including O'Shay and a man named Karl Bennett, whom Horatio calls and learns is the father of Anna's three-year-old son. He confronts Anna and she admits to helping O'Shay so that he would send money to her son.
The CSIs follow up on another name in the book, Reggie Veston, who runs the Kipayo Indian Casino, and question him and his wife in the death of Doug Lansing. Both deny involvement, and Horatio confronts O'Shay, who he thinks is blackmailing Reggie with the contents of Anna's book. O'Shay threatens to turn the pressure on Horatio's team. Calleigh and Delko go to Reggie's bungalow and find the man dead, stabbed in the face. A piece of confetti from the casino with traces of raspberry hairspray found on the body leads them to Mrs. Veston. She learned about her husband visiting a prostitute and stabbed her husband in a fit of rage. When Natalia tests the blood of everyone questioned in the Lansing case, she learns Jesse Stark is one-sixteenth Kipayo, making him eligible for part of the casino's profit--before Lansing interfered. Jesse admits he overheard a phone call Lansing made talking about who gets money from the casino and who doesn't, and when he returned to the room later and found the two passed out, he scalped Doug in a fit of rage. The case closed, Horatio tells Anna to stay away from O'Shay and not to let her life get away from her again.
He's never really fitted in well with the rest of the team since he first arrived. To begin with it could have been blamed by the fact that they had just lost Speed, but even now the team are not as comfortable together as the teams in Vegas and New York.
Totally!! Ryan has always been out for himself, not part of the team, right from the start. Yes he was replacing Speed but even after that he should have integrated more, after the nail incident etc, but still spends most of his time being the one who gets the info, the one who is the CSI to get that vital clue and him and him alone to be the one to solve it. NY and Vegas - their teams are so integrated (apart from Catherine this week mind) even with the other Lab guys getting really involved, but Miami just doesn't seem to be getting this now.
There is no way, Ryan should be reinstated - theres obviously going to be a reason for it, but I'm still not happy about it :(
After the body of movie star Brody Lassiter is discovered in the trunk of a stuntman's car during a film shoot, the CSIs question those associated with the film, including the assistant director, Rod Vickers, the stuntman driving the car and Brody's assistant, Eddie Corbett. The CSIs learn that Brody had been out clubbint with Ron, but Ron claims he dropped the actor off safe, sound and sober at White Sands, the rehab center where he was staying. The head of the clinic grants Calleigh and Ryan access to Brody's room where they discover a rope used to hang Brody. The CSIs question Jerry, a fellow patient who snooped around in Brody's room, but he insists he was just looking for hidden alcohol. Ryan gets a hit in CODIS on a hair found in Brody's bed that matches Holly Reese, an aspiring actress doing a stint in White Sands as well. Holly admits to sleeping with Brody--and faking her addiction--but nothing more.
When Ryan and Natalia discover a camera in Brody's room, their suspicions turn Peter Ashford, the head of the clinic. Ashford was selling pictures and videos of his clients, and he was the one who moved Brody's body, but he denies killing the actor. Delko traces the rope, which was made out of floss, to a patient named Jolene Kitt, who tells him that Brody confessed to her that he'd killed someone. Jolene confesses to Delko that she contemplated suicide, and he sympathizes with her plight and encouages her to get better.
Horatio and Tripp question Brody's assistant, Eddie, about an actress that disappeared off of one of Brody's movies, but Eddie denies any wrong-doing on either his part or Brody's. Alexx examines Brody's body further and points out that Brody received a blow to the head at some point shortly before his death. She also makes note of healed rib fractures, indicating he was hit by something. Delko and Natalia search the news records from Brody's hometown in Pennsylvania and learn Brody was in a car crash with a woman named Diane Corbett--Eddie's sister. As part of his rehab program, Brody confessed to Eddie that he was in the car with Diane, and had in fact been driving. He moved her into the driver's seat after he realized she was dead and fled the scene. Eddie killed Brody in a fit of rage and hung him with the rope to make it look like a suicide. After Eddie is led off, Delko goes back to White Sands to see Jolene check out of the program.
Peace on Miami's Star Island is shattered when Hank and Laurie Atherton begin a huge fight, complete with a chainsaw and a shotgun, oh Hank's boat. The police break up the fight only to discover the body of Mandy Felding, Hank's trainer and girlfriend, inside the Athertons' home, which is divided in half by a state of the art laser system. Their son Nathan tells the CSIs that the warring couple is working out a not-so-civil divorce. Before the CSIs can properly begin their investigation, another body connected to the Atherton's turns up: Stan Lockwood, who bought Hank's precious car from Laurie for a mere $200, is found dead beside the car, the keys nearby in a fire ant nest. Delko pulls a shoe print from the car door, which was kicked in, smashing Stan's head. Natalia finds semen in Mandy's body that belongs to her husband, Todd, and Horatio is able to get him to confess to killing her.
Carmen Henney, who is unjustly collecting money from Delko from a scam, shows up at the lab and is surprised when Delko doesn't recognize her. After the shoe print on the car is matched to Paul Warner, the pool boy, Laurie Atherton's lawyer, Stacy Wakeman moves to have the evidence dismissed based on Delko's recent injuries in a shooting. Carmen backs her up and the evidence is dismissed. Going back to square one, Delko, who is now on desk duty theorizes that because the red ant bites on Paul's arms didn't go all the way up them that the pool boy might have been wearing a jacket. The CSIs obtain Paul's jacket and when Natalia discovers skin cells caught in the zipper that match Stan, it's all over for the pool boy.
The Athertons are at the heart of another domestic disturbance when their safe deposit box is released and both race to the bank, only to find it empty. They're arrested, and in order for their lawyers to continue to represent them, they're forced to sign over the deed to their house. When Calleigh joins Nathan to pay a visit to Alex Comdon, Hank's lawyer, she's shocked to find him dying, the victim of a fatal stab wound. Horatio confronts Stacy, who breaks client confidentiality while defending herself, giving the CSI a way to get her disbarred--and Delko reinstated. Working on a clue from Nathan, Calleigh and Delko search the Atherton's house and find the weapon used to kill Comdon--the knife the Athertons used to cut their wedding cake. Dual interrogations reveal that the Athertons, after finding their safe deposit box looted confronted Comdon, and, after learning he'd appropriated the contents, killed him. Both Athertons are arrested, and Nathan drives off after lamenting to Calleigh that his parents fought over their material possessions, but never him.
