Goofs:

Factual errors: The ants that are attacking Nick Stokes are identified as fire ants. In one clip, these ants bite Nick and a CSI style close up follows venom from one ant's bite into Nick's heart. Fire ants actually release their venom through a sting from the abdomen; their bite is only to get a grip.

Quotes:

Conrad Ecklie: I'm proposing we eliminate all overtime on lab work except for priority cases, stop hiring based on attrition, reassign existing personnel based on peak staffing needs. Over the next fiscal year, that should clear at least a million.
Undersheriff McKeen: Assuming any of those measures actually saves money, which isn't really the issue here, is it?
Conrad Ecklie: I'll take the heat.
Undersheriff McKeen: You want to do something for your people? Get them ready for a funeral.

Best CSI episode

I am a very big fan of this show. I could not wait to see this episode when I heard that Quentin was going to have his way for the two one hour episodes. I am now sitting here watching it for the third time. I am still praying for Nick that he is going to get out of that box. The first time I watched it I almost turned the TV off because my nerves were shot. I was literally sitting on the edge of the couch. I was never the biggest fan of Nick but after seeing this show I feel much differently. Overall I would recommend this show to not only fans of csi but to everyone who enjoys an engaging show that they will not be able to tear they eyes away from the screen. I have yet to see any who on TV that has left me thinking about it for days afterwards. I hope that Quentin will get to do another show someday but I do not think that he will be able to live up to this one.
