CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Season 7

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2000-), usually referred to as CSI, is a dramatic television series about the Forensics Crime Lab in Las Vegas.

Catherine:
Pig and the piglets are in the pigpen.

Warrick:
About time. Finally some good news.

Catherine:
Did you know that Pig, a.k.a Cole Tritt, was the only adult? The rest of 'em were all under 18. One was 14.

Warrick:
Are you kidding? Who raises these kids?

Catherine:
I mean, they weren't all delinquents. Demetrius James was a college student.

Nick:
Hangin' out with the wrong crowd in the wrong town. I'm tellin' ya, a fake I.D in Las Vegas is like havin' a--a free ticket on the hell train. Sex, drugs, gambling, no adult supervision, 24/7, by the time they're 21 they've done and seen it all.

Catherine:
Make me slit my wrists why don't ya? I'm raising a teenager here.

Warrick:
Ah, you're doin' a great job, Linds is gonna turn out to be a beautiful young woman. Besides, I grew up in Vegas, I didn't turn out so bad, did I?

Nick:
Yeah. That was pre-Mirage. Back when you were a little squirt goin' to the casino, playin' the arcade games. Nah, Vegas is a different animal now.

Warrick:
Yeah, these kids need to beat people up in the street to be entertained. They need some good discipline, they need their grandmother whuppin' their ass like I had.

Nick:
Yeah, a good slap.

Sara:
You know, it kinda sounds like you guys are blaming everybody but these kids. I mean, you don't get a bye just because you grew up here or your parents are on drugs or--- those kids were perfectly capable of telling the difference between a wild night out and beating somebody to death.

Grissom:
The truth is, a moral compass can only point you in the right direction, it can't make you go there. Our culture preaches that you shouldn't be ashamed of anything you do anymore. And unfortunately this city is built on the principle that there's no such thing as guilt. "Do whatever you want, we won't tell." So without a conscience, there's nothing to stop you from killing someone. And evidently you don't even have to feel bad about it.

Grissom:
Okay, Carl, just tell me what happened.

Carl:
Lucas and Jason had gotten into it with Jason's grandfather, he'd knock the boys around, they ran to Lucas's house but couldn't get in. So they came to me. I explained to them that hitting wasn't okay, I said that Jason needed to call his father and tell him what was going on.

Grissom:
Did you let them use your phone?

Carl:
They were too upset. When the grandfather pushed Lucas, he hit his head, I gave him a couple of aspirin.

Grissom:
Well, if he didn't wanna call his mother, why didn't you call her?

Carl:
I couldn't risk it. She might've turned me in.

Grissom:
So instead, you took them from pizza?

Carl:
I didn't touch him. I didn't wanna hurt him.

Grissom:
You gave him liquor.

Carl:
I stopped and bought some whiskey before we picked up the pizza, I was nervous about them being in the car with me, I didn't wanna go back to prison.

Grissom:
And you wanted to get them drunk.

Carl:
They---they just wanted to try it. I gave them a taste.

Grissom:
It was more than a taste, Carl. Lucas's blood alcohol level was .16, that's twice the legal limit for an adult. Why didn't you take them home?

Carl:
They didn't wanna go home, they wanted an adventure. [shows a flashback of them at the golf course] I promised them a dollar for every golf ball they brought back, Lucas wasn't feeling well, so he stayed in the car with me.

Grissom:
And you knew that Jason wanted money so he could go to Texas and see his dad, so you bribed him in order to be alone with Lucus.

Carl:
I didn't molest him!

Grissom:
Who took his shirt off?

Carl:
He was hot.

Grissom:
What were you going to do him once his shirt was off?

Carl:
It was innocent, he wasn't feeling well. He laid his head in my lap, I touched his hair---I didn't wanna ---I loved him. I loved Lucas and he loved me.

Grissom:
Is that what you think? Then why didn't you help him? He told you that he hit his head, he was in pain, he had a concussion, Carl. You must've known that. I'm sure he was dizzy, probably had no appetite, maybe he was even slurring his words. But you didn't care about that because you wanted what you wanted. His brain was bleeding, now most kids don't die from that because someone who really loves them takes them to the hospital. But instead, you gave him alcohol and aspirin a lethal combination for his head injury---it prevented his blood from clotting. [pauses] You killed him, Carl. And you would've killed Jason too. Except he ran away from you and out of your reach.

Carl:
You're not listening to me. I didn't wanna hurt anyone. I need you to believe me.

Grissom:
I don't. You had choices, you made the wrong ones and now this little boy is gone.

Hodges:
Four crime scene miniatures. Four murder victims. And one diabolical killer with an obsessive streak who still remains at large. I don't know if any of you have noticed how distracted Grissom's been lately, but it's these keeping him up at night.

Archie:
You know the combination?

Hodges:
Of course. Grissom could use some fresh eyes on the case and that's why I've asked you here. Obviously, this could be perceived as insulting to the CSIs who formerly worked the case, so secrecy is of the utmost importance. Double down low.

Mandy:
[in a British accent] Oh James, it's Monnypenny. M needs you back at HQ.

Archie:
Shoe phone was get smart, girl.

Mandy:
Oh, that's right.

Henry:
Ninety-nine was so hot.

Archie:
Yeah.

Hodges:
Four people are dead, the killer's still out there, and you're mocking?

Mandy:
We're mocking you.

Hodges:
You in or out?

Henry:
I don't really know anything about these cases.

Hodges:
We'll review.

Henry:
I don't know, I have a lot of work to do.

Hodges:
And by work, you mean IMing your Icelandic penpal who thinks that you look like Warrick Brown, because that's the picture you posted.

Henry:
How?

Hodges:
I just know. Archie? In?

Archie:
What the hell? But I gotta leave early. I've got a surfing trip in Santa Barbra this weekend.

Hodges:
Miss Mockery?

Mandy:
Well, we can't leave the lab. We can't talk to suspects. What exactly does Grissom want us to do?

Hodges:
It's not always what you look at that matters, it's what you see.

Henry:
That's Thoreau.

Hodges:
Oh, is it?

Archie:
Okay, professor, and your point would be?

Hodges:
The answers lie in these. We're lab techs. We think differently than field guys. They deal with people, we deal with things. Maybe we can't find the killer, but I think we can find the thing that links all four murders. This is an opportunity. We have one shift to show Grissom what we're made of. Tonight we could be heroes.

Mandy:
All right, all right. I'm in.

Hodges:
It's time to think outside the box.

Grissom:
Hi Natalie. My name's Gil. It's so nice to finally meet you. I-um, probably shouldn't say this, but... I'm a huge fan. I've been a crime scene investigator for 22 years, I've worked over 2,000 homicides, and you are by far... the best I've ever seen. I mean, you're such a great artist. And to be so young, and so talented, and... so pretty. I've thought about you every night for the last nine months. I even tried to do what you do. I built my own miniature.

[Natalie nods her head]

Grissom:
You saw it? How'd I do?

[Natalie shrugs]

Grissom:
Do you play chess?

[Natalie shakes her head]

Grissom:
I play. As hobby. Quiets my mind, you know? Soothes me. At one point I became so consumed by it, that whenever I closed my eyes I could see the chess pieces moving all around the board. I was obsessed with correcting all my bad moves. I wondered if a game could ever be played without a mistake. I'd love to play you sometime. I'm so impressed by the way you embrace your passion. You'd make a great CSI. This last one was brilliant. You studied our crime scene so well, tracking the car to the junkyard, and then towing it all the way out to the desert where you knew we wouldn't find it. And then, the way you killed Sara.

Natalie:
[shaking her head] I didn't kill her.

Grissom:
You didn't?

[Natalie shakes her head]

Natalie:
This is about her. Her, her, her. It's always about her.

Grissom:
No, it isn't Natalie. It's about you.

[Natalie cuts him off]

Natalie:
It's always about her.

[she takes a blade from her mouth and slashes Grissom's throat and watches as he bleeds. Then in a baby voice]

Natalie:
Oh sad was the day for the little bisque doll, for they cut all her stitches away, and found the seat of the terrible ache. T'was a delicate task...

Grissom:
[not cut, for it was all in her imagination] Natalie listen to me. Tell me where she is.

Natalie:
For none of the doctor's had ever before...

Grissom:
Natalie.

Natalie:
...performed on a dolly's inside...

Grissom:
Please tell me where Sara is.

Natalie:
...They tried to re-stuff her, but didn't know how, and this was her wail as she died...

Grissom:
[yelling] Stop it! Just stop this!

[shaking her head]

Grissom:
Tell me where Sara is!

Natalie:
...I've got a pain in my sawdust. That's what's the matter with me.

[voice over, over turned car]

Natalie:
Something is wrong with my little inside. I'm just as sick as can be. Don't let me faint, someone get mr a fan.

[a hand clawing at the ground from under the car]

Natalie:
Someone please run for the medicine man. Everyone hurry as fast as you can, 'cause I've got a pain in my sawdust.
