Quotes 

• Sara Sidle : What if... you can hear the victim's screams? In the car, or at the store.

  Gil Grissom : You have empathy for her, Sara. You want someone to pay for what was done to her. That's normal.

  Sara Sidle : [pauses]  You want to sleep with me?

  Gil Grissom : [looks up at her]  Did you just say what I think you said?

  Sara Sidle : That way, when I wake up in cold sweat under the blanket, hearing Kaye's screams, you can tell me it's nothing, it's just empathy.

• Scott Shelton : Like I said, I'd wrestle her off me, but I never, ever, laid a hand on her.

  Sara Sidle : How 'bout a gun?

  [glares at him] 

  Scott Shelton : [looks to Grissom] 

  [scoffs] 

  Scott Shelton : You have your hands full with her.

  Gil Grissom : So do you.

• Gil Grissom : You've still got to convince a jury.

  Sara Sidle : On bullets. It's got to be better than bugs.

  [Grissom looks at her] 

  Sara Sidle : Less Latin.

• Captain Jim Brass : So, you planning a little late-night luau? Roast pig?

  Gil Grissom : It's an experiment. Maybe Kaye was dead five days.

  Captain Jim Brass : I thought your bugs never made mistakes.

  Gil Grissom : They don't. People do. The victim was wrapped in a blanket. Normally a blanket or clothing doesn't impact insect maturation. The insects usually fight their way in anyway. But I examined the folds in Kaye's blanket. She was wrapped tight - -maybe tighter than I realized - -which would have decreased the corpse's exposure to insects.

  Captain Jim Brass : So it took longer for the insects to get in there?

  Gil Grissom : And deposit their eggs. Maybe two whole days. I've wrapped porky here pretty tight.

  Captain Jim Brass : Well, let me ask you this. You killed a pig just for this?

  Gil Grissom : This poor ham was already on its way to someone's Christmas dinner table.

  Captain Jim Brass : Wouldn't a rabbit be easier?

  Gil Grissom : Gotta be a pig. Interestingly, they're the most like humans.

  Captain Jim Brass : Yeah, I've been saying that since I was a rookie.

• Scott Shelton : [after Sara discovers blood that has been wiped clean off the wall]  I have no idea how it got there.

  Sara Sidle : It "got there" when you shot your wife in the head before you wrapped her in a blanket and dumped her in the mountains.

  [points her finger in his face] 

  Scott Shelton : Get your finger out of my face!

  [they fight] 

  Sara Sidle : You touch me again, you draw back a stump.

  [to Grissom] 

  Captain Jim Brass : Get her under control!

  Gil Grissom : [shouts]  Get him out of here, Jim!

  Scott Shelton : Told you she was a handful.

  Sara Sidle : You don't know a handful!

  Gil Grissom : Hey, hey, what's the matter with you?

  Sara Sidle : I am a woman, and I have a gun and look how he treated me! I can only imagine how he treated his wife!

• Captain Jim Brass : We ID'd the body and located the husband...

  Gil Grissom : Let me guess - downtown, Fremont district?

  Captain Jim Brass : You know, I'm not even gonna ask.
