Primum Non Nocere, Season 2 #16

Hockey player found dead after an in-game skirmish. And a musician is found dead of what appears to be an overdose.

GREG:
  1. Testing himself on a eye chart? Attempt to step into the shoes of near-sighted person that left their contact lens at the scene. But if a near-sighted person has a vision deficit, they’d be using lens to correct a problem which Greg doesn’t have – he’s creating a bigger problem since he has self-proclaimed perfect eyesight. Not pleased by Warrick’s question is he using their evidence – give me some credit.
  2. Conversation with Sara about organized sports, which leads Sara to conclude he didn’t play sports in high school. Nope, captain of chess team. Which Sara reminds him is not a sport. Another attempt to impress Sara sadly goes down in flames.
  3. Analysis of regurgitation – no food poisoning. Morning sickness.

Purple shirt w/lab coat. And then more casual blue fleece.

REST OF TEAM:

  • Another Grissom comment that Sara doesn’t know how to take: to her comment- “Since when are you interested in beauty?” “Since I met you.” No wonder the poor girl is confused with the mixed signals.
  • Hockey player that talks to Catherine, Jeremy Ratchford, now Nick Vera on Cold Case.
  • “There are three things in life people love to stare at – a rippling stream, fire in a fireplace and a Zamboni going round and round.” Grissom is once again quoting Charlie Brown, which Sara immediately recognizes.
  • “Organized sports is the paradigmatic model of a just society.” Grissom teaches us a new word which, according to dictionary.com means: ‘of or pertaining to a paradigm.’
  • Female hockey player that also rides a motorcycle and coaches basketball, trying awfully hard to fit into a man’s world. And then when she throws up, Grissom wants to keep it.
  • Warrick and Nick’s overdose case focuses more on Warrick’s attraction to female singer. Which Nick doesn’t approve of when they find out she is a drug user.
  • All the hullabaloo about the fight on the ice as a factor in the hockey players death turns out to be a red herring, he had a heart defect.
  • Hockey team’s doctor turns out to be killer. Which is where the title of episode came from, "primum non nocere" a Latin phrase which translates as "first, do no harm” --a principle of modern medical ethics.
