Great but where is the conclusion??

I was really looking forward to the conclusion, the wrap up, the explanation of this super powerful, lifetime fever, sudden death guy... Walter. But there were no explanations for any of those things. What the heck?

Was his lifetime of being too hot mean something, like a disease? Was his heart enlarged due to something related to the 103 Fahrenheit temperature or something else? Why was he such a psycho, that he would kill you for nothing... and yet was never arrested or caught?

Scary stuff, good back story

Maybe worth a 9 rating, but I'm stricter than most people on the ratings.

This starts off with a tough guy picking a fight. The scene cuts to later: we find that tough guy has received an absolutely brutal beating and died. At first it looks as though several people must have beaten him, but in the pathology lab scene (a CSI regular feature, where Grissom and Doc Robbins pontificate over a dead body) Robbins says it was probably just one..

It doesn't take the CSIs too long to discover the man who did it - a small man who must have been possessed by inhuman fury - sitting calmly having a drink in the same bar (smart fellow!) with badly swollen knuckles.

He turns out to be a truly scary guy. It does beggar belief that he's never been caught - bit of an idiot, though I wouldn't say it to his face :). But there's an interesting and moving back story woven in that is well worth watching.

Excellent television drama.

Rage
Hitchcoc28 January 2021
This is a different type of episode. A small but violent man beats another one to death. He is pretty much instant death to anyone who crosses him. The problem is he does things that infuriate people. He is apprehended easily, but it's like having a cobra in your house. When he dies in custody, it opens a whole lot of factors from his life, including a skeleton on his property.

A Very Bad Guy
claudio_carvalho5 January 2023
A strong and tall man follows another man in the casino to the parking lot. Soon the CSI team comes to the casino to investigate the murder of the man, Tony Sciarra, who was brutally beaten. They watch the tape of the surveillance cameras and see a shorter man stealing Tony's chips and being followed by him. When they identify the killer, Walter Darian, they arrest him; however, the guy attacks Grissom first in the interrogation room and then the guards that try to subdue him. Out of the blue, Walter is dead. Now, they investigate his belongings since he was an accumulator and find evidence that may lead them to another murder case.

"Bad to the Bone" is an episode of "CSI" with a murder case that involves the entire team. The case has ramifications and shows a very bad guy, capable to kill a pregnant woman and withdraw her baby from her belly. My vote is eight.

Title (Brazil): "Mau Até os Ossos" ("Bad to the Bone")
