'Nick:
Shut up. She was not.

Warrick:
I saw her in action.

Nick:
Really?

Warrick:
Yeah, she was.

Nick:
Catherine?

Catherine:
(walks in and smiles) I was what?

Warrick:
I was just telling Nick how you were a big bully in high school.

Catherine:
A bully? All right, I guess I was. But, I mean, not the kind that people want to take a gun out and shoot.

Warrick:
No.

Nick:
No, no. You were the kind that guys fall all over themselves trying to impress.

Catherine:
(smiling) Like you, Nick, huh? (Cath puts a hand on his shoulder for emphasis, he gets it. And sits down) Oh, Nick...what were you in high school?

Nick:
Me? I was, uh...I was "dependable".

Catherine:
Dependable.

Nick:
Mmhmm.

Catherine:
Dependable jock, dependable stoner?

Nick:
No. Never a strap, never a smoker. Just all-around "dependable" guy, I guess.

Warrick:
What Nick's trying to say he was unpopular. (Cath laughs. Sara walks into the break room)

Sara:
Nick, Ronny's got something on Liquid Man, says it's hot.

Nick:
Great. (gathers things and gets up)

Warrick:
Hey Sara, what were you in high school?

Sara':
Science nerd. (Nick walks past her and sniffs)

Nick:
You changed? (whispers) But you still smell. Let's go. (they leave)

Catherine:
So that leaves you, Warrick. What were you?

Warrick:
Oh, I was short, I had big feet, thick glasses.

Catherine:
You?

Warrick:
Yeah. I got pushed around by all the guys and never got any play from the girls.

Catherine:
The girls didn't even notice your eyes?

Warrick:
No, they used to tease me about my eyes. Called me names.

Catherine:
Aww, well, what do they know? They're your best feature.

Lady Heather:
Go ahead, ask. "How can I do this for a living?"

Catherine:
Oh, that's not what I was thinking. [pause] How much does this place clear a week?

Lady Heather:
Ten grand.

Catherine:
I'm not with the IRS.

Lady Heather:
Okay. Twenty.

Catherine:
I don't make that in…three months.

Lady Heather:
Sex pays a lot better than death.

Catherine:
Plus the outfits are cooler.

Lady Heather:
Well, I have this genius tailor. Worked at the Desert Inn back in the day. I let him come in weekends and play human ashtray, he designs for me and my girls. It's a fair trade.

Catherine:
You got a good thing going here. And the best part is that these guys think getting slapped around and humiliated is their fantasy.

Lady Heather:
Like I told my daughter-

Catherine:
You got a daughter?

Lady Heather:
Eighteen this month. Freshman at Harvard.

Catherine:
Really? Mine's seven.

Lady Heather:
Oh, that's a great age.

Catherine:
Yeah.

Lady Heather:
When I thought Zoe was old enough to hear it, I told her, "Honey, there are a lot of things you can give a man. Your body, your time, even your heart. But the one thing you can never, ever, ever let go of is your power."

Catherine:
All my mother ever said to me was "Cash up front."

Lady Heather:
Don't take this the wrong way, but I think you've got everything it takes to make a great dominatrix.

Catherine:
I take that as a compliment.

Lady Heather:
Well you should. It's just about knowing yourself, being strong…and not taking any crap from powerful jerks who are used to giving it all day long.

Catherine:
Well, death is still a man's business. And I don't have to tell you about police work.

Lady Heather:
So how do you survive?

Catherine:
By knowing myself. And working hard. And not taking any crap from powerful jerks who are used to giving it all day long.

Grissom:
Okay, let's run this. Amanda was tired of being number two, so she calls up Mrs. Logan to discuss her affair with her husband. But Mrs. Logan doesn't just discuss it she throws down the gauntlet.

Catherine:
Amanda broke the only rule. Don't call the missus.

Nick:
Now he really has a problem.

Warrick:
Two problems. His wife is going to leave him, take half his money and he was going to jail.

Sara:
You got to admit, his solution was ingenious.

Grissom:
Most killers take their time planning a murder. He took his time covering it up. Forty-eight hours to be precise. So Logan cleans up the crime scene and calls his lawyer. Asks him to help him with his little charade. I mean, what better way to protect your assets than to pay a kidnapper who's already on retainer?

Catherine:
Everything from that point on was calculated.

Grissom:
Blood on his hands...he's the last customer of the day at the bank. Acting suspiciously...

Catherine:
...driving recklessly.

Warrick:
He knew he'd get hauled in to the cops.

Catherine:
You bet your ass. He didn't leave those sunglasses behind by accident. His cell phone rang on cue. The call's for me. He practically forced that money into his lawyer's hands.

Grissom:
Out of one pocket, into the other. I especially liked the little show he did for us in the coroner's lab. Trying to find out how much we knew.

Nick:
Why make the map? Why lead Catherine to the body?

Grissom:
Because without the body Logan would always be under suspicion.

Sara:
If not by the police, by his wife.

Warrick:
So, he left these wine glasses for you to find.

Catherine:
Sure, we wanted us to suspect the wife. That's why he used her SUV to transport the body. And he let me mark the money because he knew that eventually his lawyer would touch it.

Sara:
Why though? The money was in a suitcase.

Warrick:
A million dollars. Pretty tempting.

Grissom:
I saw the locker and I saw Logan's briefcase. It was too big to fit inside. His lawyer had to remove the cash by hand.

Sara:
How could he possibly know that Catherine was going to mark the money?

Warrick:
He didn't. He probably thought the bank marked it.

Nick:
Besides, there's always fingerprints.

Catherine:
So I did everything in my power to help him.

[Sara and Cath are in the hallway walking into the breakroom]

Sara:
Wow, you got to go to the body farm?

Catherine:
Yeah.

Sara:
I've always wanted to go there. What was it like?

Catherine:
Quiet.

[Now in the breakroom]

Warrick:
I hear Grissom goes there all the time. Like even on his nights off.

Nick:
[Walking over to the fridge] Why does that not surprise me? [He opens the fridge and sighs] Man, something stinks in here again. [He grabs his lunch out of the fridge]

Sara:
What, bad milk? Cottage-cheese bad?

Nick:
Worse. It's all over my sandwich. Smell that. [He hands her his sandwich, she reacts to the smell. She then kneels down to look in the fridge and sees a container on the top shelf]

Sara:
Yeah. He's got one of his experiments in there.

Nick:
You're kidding me?

Catherine Blood or bugs?

Sara:
It's not bugs.

Warrick:
Oh, that's so not cool. That's a community fridge.

Nick:
Man, someone has got to talk to Grissom about this.

Grissom:
[Walking in]: Talk to me about what?

Nick:
You leaving your experiments in our refrigerator.

Grissom:
Well, the lab fridge was full. I put in last night.

Nick:
Well...

Grissom:
I'm going to test for horizontal motion on bloodstains. Vis-a-vis surface textures. [Nick looks annoyed. Catherine takes a sip of her coffee and discretely tries to ignore the smell. Grissom is clueless as he takes out the container of blood from the fridge and opens it] Hey, any of you guys got any linoleum at home? [Catherine catches a smell of the open container and this time, she discretely pinches her nose trying to avoid the smell. Sara is quiet]

Nick:
[sits down still annoyed at being ignored] That blood is rank, man.

Grissom I know. That's why the Red Cross gives it to us 'cause it's past its expiration date. [Grissom puts it back in the fridge and talks to Catherine about the case a little then leaves]

Warrick:
Way to go, Nick. You really told him.

Nick:
I told him...he just didn't hear it.
