While Grissom and Catherine are away, Warrick is put in charge. He and Sara take a case when a con artist, who was involved with Brass's daughter, is murdered. The evidence leads the team also into an investigation of a counterfeit money ring. The CSI's number one suspect in the murder is Brass's daughter, forcing Captain Brass to take himself off of the case, but, while he does so as a cop, he can't do so as a father.

Episode Quotes |
| |
Warrick: The job is fine. It's the other stuff -- the personalities.
Grissom: I love mankind, it's people I can't stand.
Warrick: Is that Einstein?
Grissom: Linus.
Warrick: Charlie Brown. Figures. | Jim: Guy was running one of the oldest scams in Vegas. Would have gotten away with it, to until the getaway driver put a nickel in the guy's jukebox.
(Brass turns around and indicates the couple talking to Det. Sam Vega. He's showing the couple an evidence bag. Cindy Orton nods her head, yes.)
Jim: That's the Ortons from Florida. The, uh, couple ID'd the deceased as the con man.
(They both arrive at the crime scene. Grissom puts his CSI kit down and crouches low to get a better look. He notices three hundred dollar bills next to the body.)
Jim: That's the Ortons' money.
(Grissom looks up at Brass.)
Gil: It's mine now.
(Grissom looks around.)
Gil: Surveillance?
Jim: Not in the garage.
Gil: Banana skids and fresh blood -- that helps. Oil slick doesn't hurt us either.
Det. Sam Vega: Hey, Jim. Got these from the cage.
(Det. Sam Vega hands Brass the evidence bag full of dummy gambling chips.)
Jim: Thanks, Sam. The chip clip. Haven't seen that one in a while.
(He hands the bag to Grissom.)
Gil: Striking resemblance to Judas.
Jim: How's that?
Gil: Both men lost their lives over a worthless bag of chips. | Gil: Whoa. Careful. Livestock.
(He holds up the container of cockroaches.)
Gil: Hissing roaches from Madagascar.
Catherine: Sorry.
Gil: These babies run two and a half miles an hour.
Catherine: I don't doubt that for a minute.
Gil: Fifth annual entomological convention in Duluth. Cockroach racing finals.
(Grissom pushes the door to his office open and walks in. Catherine follows.)
Catherine: You're roach racing
Gil: Actually, I'm giving a tutorial in preserving mass crime scenes. The sideshow is racing these guys.
Catherine: Ah.
Gil: I mean, to have a chance to run against legendary roaches like Cocky Balboa; The Drain Lover; Priscilla, Queen of the Gutters. It's huge. | Al: Bullet entered the external auditory meatus fracturing the skull base. Cracked the hardest bone of the skull.
Warrick: You got any pictures of that?
Al: Hot off the fluoroscope. Haven't had the pleasure yet.
(Robbins holds up the film. They both see the location of the bullet.)
Warrick: Whoa.
Al: There is your bullet. Deformed projectile in the right side of the calvarium.
Warrick: Can you fish that out for me?
Al: You bet.
(Warrick glances at the other x-ray film. He sees something.)
Warrick: Wait a minute.
(Warrick walks over to the light board and snaps the film in place. Several small balloon-shaped figures show on the film.)
Warrick: There's something in his stomach.
(Robbins holds up the white balloon.)
Al: Something tells me, this isn't filled with white sugar.
Warrick: How many more are there?
Al: I'd say about 50 balloons. Green dye you see here is probably from lime flavored gelatin. Makes them much easier to swallow.
Warrick: He's a mule. Why is a guy trafficking in big-pay drugs wasting his time on some nickel-and-dime chip scam? | Warrick: Hey.
Jim: Hey.
Warrick: You have a daughter?
Jim: Where you going with this?
Warrick: Her prints came up on airline stubs relating to tonight's homicide.
Jim: Well, there's got to be more than one Ellie Brass in the world.
Warrick: Ellie Rebecca Brass. DOB 9/24/82. Essex County, New Jersey. Last known address 554 Applegate Way.
(Brass grabs the file from Warrick and closes it.)
Jim: Okay, you told me. | Ellie Brass: Everyone I sleep with dies.
(Ellie Brass looks down at the photographs of Vincent Avery on the parking lot ground.)
Warrick: Excuse me?
Ellie Brass: I slept with this sailor once when I was fourteen. He died overseas somewhere.
Det. Sam Vega: What was your relationship to Vincent Avery?
Ellie Brass: There was no relationship. I barely knew him.
Det. Sam Vega: You knew him enough to fly to Baja with him.
Ellie Brass: He invited me for the weekend. I figured as long as he didn't chop me up I'd have some fun.
(Ellie Brass reaches into her bag and pulls out a cigarette pack.)
Ellie Brass: Mind if I smoke?
(She hits the pack intending to extract a cigarette. Instead, a single blue $500 dummy chip falls out onto the table.)
Warrick: Yeah.
Det. Sam Vega: Plain sight.
(Using his pen, Warrick pulls the chip in front of him.)
Warrick: It's a dummy chip. No casino logo.
Det. Sam Vega: Exactly the same kind of chips Vincent Avery used to scam the casinos.
(Sam Vega looks at Ellie Brass.)
Det. Sam Vega: Before he got shot.
Warrick: So, you two fly down to Baja, pose as a married couple brought back home a stomach load of blow and then you run chip scams? Who's taking your drug profits?
Ellie Brass: Man, I wish I knew what you were talking about.
Det. Sam Vega: Someone catch you and Vincent working on the side? Shoot him?
Ellie Brass: I wasn't even there.
Det. Sam Vega: Where were you?
Ellie Brass: Home. In the bathroom.
Warrick: Yeah, she was passing pellets of cocaine.
Ellie Brass: I'm out of here.
(Ellie Brass stands and heads toward the door. Det. Sam Vega also stands and stops her.)
Det. Sam Vega: Sit down.
(Ellie Brass moves back to the table and sits down.)
Det. Sam Vega: Thank you.
Warrick: With your permission, we need to take some x-rays.
Ellie Brass: As long as you're the one doing them.
Det. Sam Vega: We'd also like to take a look at your car.
Ellie Brass: I lent it to my boyfriend.
Warrick: And what is his name?
Ellie Brass: You know, you have this whole Lenny Kravitz thing going on. I'm not one for brothers, but ... damn.
Warrick: His name.
(She smiles.)
Ellie Brass: Keith Driscoll. |
