Fan Rating:
7.5 (yeah, I know its sorta lowish, but hey, I thought the story line was good but the G/S factor could've been better and Hank was mentioned.....)
Okay first of all, the expectation for this eposide was a bit high...(yeah, I know I was expecting this major Grissom/Sara deal) but after getting over this let down I built myself up for, I actually enjoyed this eposide.  Grissom, Sara, and Warrick all worked this case that dealt with a death of a poker champion (uh..didn't know there was such a thing, now I do, see told ya, I actually learn stuff when I watch this show) oh, yeah, he died during a high stakes game....Opening scene..Grissom is standing in the middle of a casino looking at (I have no earthly idea what) then Warrick shows up (where is Sara???? me looking everywhere for the chick...) and then they walk down the huge hall like thing...and guess who walks out of the room (where the dude's and a lady chick were playing poker) Hank.. (ahhhhhhhhhh, okay feel better) He says Hi to Warrick and asks where Sara was??? (why on earth would...oh nevermind) Warrick says Hey and she is on her way....And Hank says to tell her Hi!  (okay, so they were friends? or was this a secret relationship????) and Grissom does this major double take and watches Hank leave (yes, going the other direction) and then he gets this weird look of his face....(okay, so I couldn't see his face that well, but I figured he did).  Warrick and Gris go into the room and they convo back and forth about poker (the convo wasn't interesting enough to write about) then, the main title dealy (uh..don't know what that is called).  Commericals.....We are back...We see Grissom and Warrick first working.. then our Sara comes out from under the table (hmm, man, missed my chance, me/Sara under a table.... and she did look really, really, really good in this eposide) uh, anyway back to topic...and she states she's got candy and Warrick asks what color and she replies "Green, you know what they say about the green ones?" then Gris says "Bag it seperatly" (okay, why???? I mean its just a green peice of candy right????)...oh well its Grissom....anywhoo back to the eposide....Then we see Warrick with that pretty blue light deal shining it over a chair (btw: its the same light Griss used in "unfriendly skies" when he was looking at the sink in the bathroom just before the sex convo him and Sara have)....Warrick says he has something..Sara comes over and looks, Warrick says something along the line of "Looks like urine" and Sara replies with "Please tell me they stoch guard these things...." and Grissom replies with "Why don't you tell me when you take it back to the lab to be processed" and Sara replies "Great" and grabs the chair and we see her leave.....Meanwhile somewhere else...Catherine and Nick arrive at a crime scene on some abonded air strip...dead body, no bugs,  and no evidence...back to the poker case.....We see Grissom at the autopsy, Dr. Robbin is giving him the low down on what is wrong with the body....Convo next scene, has Grissom sitting at a computer watching the tape from the servalance camera at the casino.  Then comes another GREAT scene with Sara....She is in the lab with Greg (she actually is flirting with him..wait..one little second?  What about Gris and, the plant, the bridge???...nevermind my little self is getting way tooo carried away here) anyway, Greg mentions something about liquior and what he drinks....but I'm too interested in Sara, to hear Greg's part of the convo until he mentions....HANK! and what that skank drinks....Sara tell him its none of his bussiness, and he promises he won't tell Nick and Warrick about Hank as long as she tell him what Hank has that Greg don't (okay two things here...Greggy, Sara is WAY OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE, and DUH! and Warrick and Nick already know!) Sara stands there in all her glory...giving him a very nice smile doesn't say anything, then a mechine beeps and she takes the paper and leaves all the while brushing little ol' Greg off....She then goes and joins her man and Warrick they have a convo about eye drops and some old chick who was sitting at the table in the video...(you know I actually learned something about eye drops from my girl during this scene)...Oh, look its a Catherine and Nicky scene...blah, blah, blah....there's on a street in Vegas and some black dude (who looks gay) is checking Catherine out (oops my bad, maybe not)...Ewww, Doc Robbins and David peel the dead poker dudes skin back, nasty! Hey, look back to Sara's man(and I'm not talking Hanky Skanky), and Brass, they are talking to that old lady from the video in this big room with lots of chairs...Grissom says something about how the lady's one eye is blue and he takes out this cute little flashlight and shines it at the lady eyes and says he needs her contact....Then we have a Warrick scene where he walks in and finds Doc Robbins holding the dead poker man's brain in his hands and him and David are talking about it (hmmm, must have been an interesting convo there) anywhoo, Warrick learns that the dead dude had a stroke..tocs pending...oh gee, another Catherine/Nickky scene with them nice looking cars, okay so this case excapes me, but anywhoo I was waiting and looking for Sara....Whata you know next scene (after commerical) is a Sara scene, she's in the lab with Greg again...for more results..again anthor reference to Hanky shanky (Greggo, get over it!, your with Heidi) okay the machine beeps and Greg goes over to it, and Sara wants the results and Gregs tells her he'll give her the results if she gives him the answer to his question he asked earlier...She gives him this smile.  Next scene is Grissom and Ronny blah, convo, Grissom asks Ronny for help to find the Ace's Ronny asks how many are there (guess Ronny never played poker??) Grissom says the old lady from the tape was cheating (color dot in the corner of the ace's) and Sara walks in and says "thats all she was doing" and goes on to explaining about her findings, okay the old lady is off the hook...The next scene has Grissom, Warrick and Brass in a casnio talking to different people...Warrick questions this blond lady who gets questioned again later...Grissom goes over to the bar and orders this drink...but never drinks it anywhoo, gets what he was looking for.. Another Catherine/Nick scene...really long scene's....finally back to the main case, We see Grissom sitting in one of the layout rooms looking at this paper..with music in the background, then Sara comes in and turns off the radio (nice way, it get his attention) and asks "What do you got" and Grissom tells her about the wattresses and how they order there drinks and how one of the wattresses ordered in the wrong order..Next scene had Grissom questioning the blond chick with Brass and she tells him she was giving the guy the poops...LOL..anywhoo, next scene has Grissom and Sara walking down the hall talking about the blond chick and how the dead dude was a stiff and what she was doing, was known as servers revenge..and then they go into lab room were warrick has descovered something about he dead dudes red blood cells, he had basicfilc stippling, and Sara states something about BS and how its means that the dude injested a bunch of iron....Hey, its another Nikky/Catherine scene...they are talking about a gun...then we are back to the main case and Sara, Gregg (okay when did he become involved in the case???), Warrick, and Grissom sitting around the breakroom table playing poker watching the video from the dead dude's last poker game and trying to figure out where the dude could have ingested iron from and everyone gives an opinion until Grissom says "That they have chased iron to death, they are looking for something else" and then he see's something and leaves....Nikky/Catherine scene, okay, let me finish this case (I don't remember what happened but here's some great deals) the car's they race (Nick and Catherine) and Catherine wins blah, blah, and then they find the person that kills the other one, something about the dead person was in a race and killed the other person's mother...anyway, they get there dudes.....Back to the main case, we see Grissom doing an experiment with candy (such a good waste of chocolate, *shaking my head*) and then we see Sara and Warrick come into Grissom's office, we see Grissom putting a plant on his desk with a spray bottel in his hand (btw: the look between Sara and Grissom was classic, hmmmm, nice addition) anywhoo, Grissom talks about were chocolate comes from and how combined with the dead pokers dude's health lead to his death and the last line: by Grissom "It was death by chocolate"...The End!
