Quotes 

• Gil Grissom : I thought you'd want to know what happened to Wendy.

  Mimosa : I appreciate your telling me. Killed by someone in our own community. As if we don't have enough enemies. Her parents never understood her, but still I think they should know. What do I say?

  Gil Grissom : Show them an oyster.

  Mimosa : I'm sorry?

  Gil Grissom : There are two types of male oysters, and one of them can change genders at will. And before man crawled out of the muck, maybe he had the same option. Maybe originally we were supposed to be able to switch genders, and being born with just one sex... is a mutation.

• Gil Grissom : Beauty is a societal construction.

  Mimosa : So is gender. People find out you're MTF and they think you're psycho. Michael Caine with a bad wig and a pair of sunglasses stabbing Angie Dickinson in "Dressed to Kill."

• Jim Brass : Lepidro. What kind of name is that?

  Gil Grissom : It's from Lepidoptera, meaning "butterfly." Walter Clancy started out a gender-dysmorphic caterpillar and turned into a bloody butterfly.

  Jim Brass : Love hurts.
