The Accused is Entitled, Season 3 #2

Girl is found murdered in a movie star’s hotel room. And blood evidence suggests there was another woman there as well, but where is she?

GREG:

1. Blood analysis from sink. Doesn’t know what it means to pull a Polanski – huh? Guess Greggo is just that young.
2. Scene of Greg waving his phone at Nick when he pages him was cut from cable re-run – but we see it in every episode in season 3 as its Greg’s 2 seconds in the show’s opening montage.
3. After being caught messing with the dice, next scene has Greg in lab coat with surgical mask and hat looking all professional and sterile.
4. Greg’s stash of fan magazines comes through with photos of Haviland that Grissom needs to help interpret the blood pattern. (I thought his stash was porn, not TeenBeat. TeenBeat - really. I'm so disappointed.)

Wardrobe: Green/white Charlie Brown striped shirt.

REST OF TEAM:

• Movie star Haviland is played by Chad Michael Murray.
• There is a LOT of blood on the sheet. Catherine calls it a butchers apron. And later in the episode, Nick says to Greg- “Murder's messy my friend.”
• Attorney for Haviland is nicknamed “Sound Bite Wescott.” Before they even get to court she accuses CSI team of mishandling and contaminating evidence. Warrick’s Good Samaritan effort to help with a car accident is her basis for accusation. She also drags in all the team’s dirty laundry as well as Nick’s mistake documenting the dice evidence. Warrick’s gambling past is brought up as reflection on his character. And she hints that Sara’s emotional attachment to Grissom might encourage her to tamper with evidence to please her supervisor.
• Dr. Phillip Gerard: Grissom’s mentor is defense’s forensic scientist. He creeps around the lab trying to catch the team making a mistake. Seems very hard to believe Grissom would have ever admired this person. Now he sees him as a sell-out and actually calls him a bottom-feeder. He catches Greg playing with dice that had victim blood on them. Insinuates Sara’s relationship with Hank creates problem with relocated bra evidence. And insinuates Nick organized video evidence to help with reasonable doubt.
• Second victim was a man, which Nick describes as ‘franks n’beans.”
• Grissom’s hearing keeps going in-and-out the entire episode. And Gerard tries to get him exposed by having Wescott talk quietly to try to catch him out. He is referred to as Dr. Grissom in the courtroom, first time we hear that title.
