After the Gribbs shooting, Detective Brass is reassigned to homicide, leaving Grissom as head of the CSI unit. To investigate the shooting, Grissom brings in Sara Sidel, an investigator from San Francisco, and assigns her to the case, much to the disgust of Catherine, who wanted the case for herself. Meanwhile, Grissom and Nick investigate the suicide of a man who recently won a large jackpot.

| This is the first appearance of Jorja Fox as Sara Sidle.
| This episode was dedicated to Owen Wolf, a man who was killed in an armored car robbery.
| Ratings: 15.8 million viewers; #20 in Nielson rankings
| This is the first episode featuring the term "CSI". In the pilot, "Criminalistics Techs" and "Criminalistics Lab" was used instead.
| Sara worked in San Francisco before Grissom asked her to come to Las Vegas.
|
| |
| Grissom: Norman "pushed". Norman "jumped". Norman "fell".
Sara: Wouldn't you if you were married to Mrs. Roper?
Grissom: I don't even have to turn around. Sara Sidle.
Sara: It's me. (huge grin)
Grissom: God Sara, I have so many unanswered whys.
Sara: There's only one why that matters now, why did Warrick Brown leave that scene?
| Sara: Catherine Willows?
(Pause)
Catherine: Let me guess, Sara Sidle?
Sara: I know who I am but you seemed to be a little confused.
| Catherine: Maybe a little bling bling?
Sara: So what's a bling bling?
Catherine: Got me.
| Catherine: You didn't have to come.
Gil: I know. I wanted to. In case you need me.
Catherine: I probably do. But this is something I'd rather do alone.
| Warrick: I'm sorry, Judge. Captain Brass wouldn't call you for a search warrant. I got a whopper on the line with a 100 pound test.
Judge Cohen: You got a winner for me?
Warrick: Favre.
Judge Cohen: You put $5,000 down on the Pack for me I'll give you a blank warrant.
| Gil: So he pulled a "Louganis", huh?
Detective Barns: Yeah, 150 feet. The giga-millions curse strikes again. Past four winners ended up dead or missing. What do you think, Grissom? It's a conspiracy.
Gil: Coincidence. I worked those four cases. There was never any evidence of foul play. Was he in town with anybody?
Detective Barns: His girlfriend. She's upstairs in police custody. Do you want to talk to her?
Gil: Not yet. Right now, I want to talk to him.
Detective Barns: How do you talk to a dead body?
(Grissom moves in closer to the body and kneels down to look at it.)
Gil: I let him talk to me, actually. (He pulls off his dark glasses and reaches out for something next to the body.) In fact, he just spoke. Didn't you hear him? He just told me that he didn't commit suicide.
| Gil: I just got off the phone with the Sheriff. He says he wants me to run the unit.
Jim: You're the boss.
(Grissom walks into the office.)
Jim: I mean, I can't say I didn't do it to myself.
Gil: Where are they going to place you?
Jim: Homicide. Believe that?
(He chuckles humorlessly.)
Jim: Instead of moving up, I'm moving back in a time capsule, like it's 1979 again. So, I guess, this might put you and me at odds.
(Brass picks up his box and starts toward the door.)
Gil: Cop versus scientist. Interesting, huh?
(Brass stops and looks at Grissom.)
Jim: (nods quietly) Yeah.
(Brass continues to head toward the door carrying his file box.)
Gil: You got any advice for me?
Jim: Yeah, cover your ass ... and hide. They're all yours, pal.
| Paula Francis: (on tv) It was her first night on the job. Victim Holly Gribbs was investigating a robbery/homicide in an apartment on the corner of M.L.K. and Warm Springs.
(Warrick sits off to the side. He's also listening to the news report.)
Paula Francis: (on tv) The crime lab now faces the daunting task of
investigating the shooting of one of their own. The wounded C.S.I. has been
taken to Desert Palm where she is listed in critical condition. The suspect is
still at large.
Newscaster (Male): (b.g.) In other news ...
(Catherine turns around to look at Warrick. Nick also turns around.)
Catherine: Weren't you supposed to be shadowing Holly?
Nick: Warrick, man, what happened?
Warrick: I left her to hook up with Grissom on that toenail case ... and then, I came back here.
Catherine: You left Holly solo?
Warrick: It was just supposed to be an easy print job. Look, I feel bad
enough, okay?
| (Warrick is at the blackjack table playing six hands.)
DEALER: You're up 11 G's. Hit or stay?
(Behind Warrick, Sara walks up to him.)
Sara: Stay. I want to talk to you.
(Warrick glances up at Sara)
(Warrick is sitting at the counter nursing a cup of coffee. Sara sits next to him.)
Sara: You were playing $100 on every spot. You have a system?
Warrick: I'm counting cards.
Sara: Isn't that illegal?
Warrick: Not if you do the math in your head.
Sara: You play anything else?
Warrick: I bet sports from time to time.
Sara: So ... let me get this straight. You were assigned by Brass to shadow a trainee, a robbery comes up on M.L.K, and you go for coffee.
Warrick: An officer was there.
Sara: So, you felt safe to leave? Do you know the policies and procedures for clearing a scene?
Warrick: Yes.
Sara: Then, why'd you leave? I mean, what was so important that you had to rush out of there?
Warrick: I told you. I went for coffee.
Sara: Was that before or after you made your bets? Sunday ... Vegas ... NFL football ... guy like you ... come on, you trying to tell me that you didn't make a little pit stop?
(Warrick doesn't say anything.)
Sara: Look at me. Did you log on ... tell dispatch where you were going?
Warrick: Do you know how many times I've been left alone at a crime scene when I was a rookie?
Sara: Yeah, well, this time is different.
Warrick: Yeah, why's that?
Sara: Holly Gribbs died on the operating table twenty minutes ago.
| Mr. Carlton: (cries) I couldn't go through with it. I'm a born failure. I failed at my marriage; I failed at my work. Then I couldn't even commit suicide right. One pull away ... the story of my life.
Gil: Mr. Carlton, we're not detectives. We're crime scene analysts. We're trained to ignore verbal accounts and rely instead on the evidence a scene sets before us. But I have to be honest with you, Red ... I believe you. I do. So ... here's what we're going to do: You're going to stay here until we get back. If you pushed this guy off the roof he will, without a doubt, have roof dust on his shoes. If he does, we'll have you arrested for murder. But if dust is not present, then you'll be free to go.
(Red Carlton thinks about it. He smiles a bit.)
Mr. Carlton: I like this guy.
| Nick: Will the real Red Skelton please ... stand up?
Gil: You're too young to remember who Red Skelton was.
Nick: Hey, Nick at Nite. You should check it out.
| Gil: Look at this.
(Camera zooms in to the fibers caught in the watch.)
Gil: These look like fibers.
Nick: Yeah. You think he was dragged?
Gil: Maybe.
Nick: Well, I'll go back to the Presidential Suite ... take a swatch of the carpet, see if we can match the fibers.
(a few scenes later)
Gil: (sarcastically) Nice swatch, Nick. Pizza box-sized.

| During the autopsy scene with Nick, Gil, and the coroner, you can see the corpse blink several times throughout the scene.
|
| |
| Grissom: Yes, yes, Norman pushed. Norman jumped. Norman fell.
Sara: Wouldn't you, if you were married to Mrs. Roper?
This is a reference to the character Mr. Roper, played by Norman Fell, in the series Three's Company. Throughout the series, Mr. and Mrs. Roper had a love-hate relationship with each other.
| Grissom: He pulled a Louganis.
Greg Louganis is an Olympic diver who cracked his head open when he hit it on the diving board during a dive in the 1988 Olympics.
| Nick: Will the real Red Skelton please ... stand up?
Gil: You're too young to remember who Red Skelton was.
Red Skelton was a comedian who had his own variety program The Red Skelton Show/Comedy Hour for over 2 decades.
