Eric Szmanda: Lab Tech Greg Sanders

Quotes 

• Greg Sanders : I'm like a sponge. I just absorb information.

  Gil Grissom : I thought that was my line.

  Greg Sanders : Yeah, and I absorbed it.

• Greg Sanders : [Grissom and Catherine walk into Greg's lab to see him rocking out to blaring rock and roll music]  I could have been a rock star.

  Gil Grissom : There's still time, Greg. Tell us about the foreign substance we found in the vic's wound track.

  Greg Sanders : Uh, well, I like to rub it all over a lady's body. Even better... I, uh... like it when she rubs it all over me. And it's also used as a stool softner.

  Catherine Willows : It's also the only open lead in our case. Spit it out, Greg.

  Greg Sanders : Mineral oil.

  Gil Grissom : Possibly used as a preservative to prevent rusting of high-carbon steel.

  Catherine Willows : Like the blades of knives.

  Greg Sanders : Old knives. New ones are made from stainless steel. Yeah, I'm like a sponge. I just absorb information.

  Gil Grissom : I thought that was my line.

  Greg Sanders : Yeah, and I absorbed it.

  Catherine Willows : Okay, so... knives, screwdrivers, ice pick, letter opener. We're looking for a weapon with a splash of mineral oil. I'll grab the ALS.

  Greg Sanders : An ALS. For mineral oil?

  Gil Grissom : Mineral oil fluoresces at 525 nanometers when filtered through a kv590. A little more absorbing... a little less rock and roll.
