Gil Grissom quotes from CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

Grissom

Does she have many friends?

Money buys you a lot of people, but, but not a lot of friends.

Hodges

Oh, hey! Gil! So I scored two tickets to this Alec Knight lecture. He's of course, you know, challenging the Russian claim that the Romonov remains found at Yekaterinburg are authentic. [Grissom looks slightly confused] Open bar.

Grissom

Are you asking me out?

Hodges

Is that a yes?

Grissom

(about the victim) Attractive girl, on drugs, on the street, with an ex-con, and no I.D.

Doc Robbins

Sounds like a street hooker.

Grissom

Yeah. But not someone who pays for plastic surgery.

Doc Robbins

Ah, well, maybe it's a business investment, courtesy of her pimp.

Brass

I just got faxed Sung Bang's prison record, and there's something weird on his personal release form. Listen to this, the guy left prison with a 9mm.

Grissom

They let him out of jail with a gun?

Brass

Well, it's only a misdemeanor, y'know, it's like a hotel, you get back what you checked in.

Grissom

So, you can go out and commit a felony?

Brass

Apparently.

Riley

How do we know Cora wasn't packing? The father of her son was a gangster, she was living with a gangster, I wouldn't put it past her.

Grissom

Well, let's see. [grabs the vic's jeans]

Riley

Most woman's clothes don't have a place to hide a gun, that's uh, that's what purses are for.

Grissom

You think they shot each other

Riley

Why not? There's motive. The evidence suggests it.

Grissom

Where are their guns?

Riley

Dead man with a gun in the hood, gone in sixty seconds. Jin skips town because this family dispute uncovers his once invisible gang. He leaves the booby trap because he's angry about it.

Grissom

It's possible. It's also possible that Jin shot both vics. Which is what the kid said and he was the closest witness.

Riley

If your uncle and your mother shot each other, you would probably blame the gang banger too.

Grissom

Okay, pilgrim. We'll settle this on the street.

Grissom

The kid shot his mother for shooting his uncle.

Brass

So you think Jin had nothing to do with it?

Grissom

Not the shooting.

Brass

Well, it makes sense. His uncle was trying to protect him and his mother was torturing him.

Grissom

Park never controlled anything in his life till he fired that gun.

Brass

An HIV-positive eight-year-old. No wonder no-one wanted to talk. Juvie may be the best thing for him. He'll get the care he needs there.

Grissom

Yeah. I'm sorry we solved this. I really am.

Hodges

Specific type of asbestos called Amicide. Its particles are bound together by vermiculite and cellulose, the combination found in spray-on ceilings, that type of ceiling material hasn't been used in 20 or 30 years. You know, it's as if you victim found a hole in the time-space continuum and was murdered decades ago.

Grissom

Brilliant theory, Dave. Thanks.

Grissom

So, let's assume that 'shoe print' was involved in all four murders. It's possible he knew, Gerald, right? Is it also possible that he was an accomplice of D.J.K.?

Greg

That would explain the 9 post-mortem stab wounds in Ian Wallace. It's a continuation of the master's work.

Catherine

But if he was D.J.K.'s helper, back in the day, why go quiet for 10 years and then suddenly start killing again?

Greg

Maybe he was doing time?

Grissom

Maybe that's what brought the old thrill back. Once these guys get a taste, it never seems to go away.

Grissom

I need a favor. It's something you're going to have to clear with the Sheriff.

What do you have bugs in my office?

Grissom

No. I have bugs in my office.

What?

Grissom

What are we talking about?

Grissom

So anyway, how was your week? What'd you do?

Sara

Well, I almost got blown up twice. I accused your ex-girlfriend of murder. And, oh, I-I told off your mother.

Grissom

Oh, good. You kept busy.

Sara

Yeah. See what happens when you stand me up?
