- TriviaWhile filming his episodes, several regular cast members, including Marg Helgenberger, stated they were not overly fond of Bieber's attitude on set. Helgenberger said that while Bieber was nice to her in person, he acted like a spoiled brat on set, and witnessed him locking a producer in a closet and putting his fist through a cake, among other antics.
- GoofsIt is said that a grenade contained benzoyl benzoate, and that it is acetone. This is wrong. Benzoyl benzoate is the ester of benzoic acid and benzoyl alcohol. Acetone is the same as propanone, the simplest ketone. It lacks any aromatic units such as found in benzoyl benzoate. Also, ketones are distinguished by lack one oxygen atom from the defining bridge structure of esters.
- Quotes
CSI Dr. Ray Langston: [to Nate Haskell] You've killed 14 people. There's no gene that's gonna magically make you free. Not for that.
Nate Haskell: Power of positive thinking, Ray. And I'm very positive.

Featured review
CSI Goes All In
And the show nails the landing in both stories. One story is complete by the end and genuinely a nail-biter. The other is an episode of an arc, a duel between Haskell and Langston, but a duet by Bill Irwin and Laurence Fishburne. Hard to imagine an episode of television where an actor who is magnificently external as Irwin who is a a movement and performance artist as much as a character actor, and another who is as internal as Fishburne, who has as textured a face as James Edward Olmos or Danny Trujillo, but is almost always calm in his line readings.
The additional elements: suggestive but maybe junk science involving genes, FMRi and a "warrior" disposition, a common abusive background for the serial killer and the forensic scientist (Dr Langston). This begins a series of episodes in which CSI does its own Hannibal story, where the investigator must (it seems) identify with the killer to solve the crime. That it is a riff on on the Hannibal Lecter oeuvre is because Fishburne spent four years as playing Jack Crawford on "Hannibal", the same Crawford from Silence but in the origin story of Lecter, brings in the neurodivergent detective, Will Graham back into the field. And of course William Peterson, the first star of CSI, played Will Graham in his first appearance on film in Michael Mann's Manhunter. Oh, and Jason Bieber does a fine job as the son of a white supremacist.
I have to add: Only viewers who think operatic touches in a procedural are "too dramatic" but they are basically clueless viewers. Robert Goren's tricks in the interview room may have made clear the melodramatic heart in the best of procedurals, but it has always been there. Recall Ben Stone's quiet but mant defense of liberal pieties. McCoy always could second-guess his second-guess how his beliefs squared with the law, though never in the courtroom; there his reedy tenor was pitch-perfect when it came to inducing guilt and judgment. But the punchline of how procedurals enable melodrama and operatic touches is of course that Paul Sorvino who replaced George Dzunda.as Mike Logan's partner on fons origo of procedurals, Law & Order, was also an opera singer. Once one sees the key, it unlocks a lot: courtroom speeches and intense interrogations are arias and duets, the detective (even if they deny it) are the knightly combatants against the chaos outdoors and, lastly, very few of the detectives and lawyers are in the final instance happy, partnered and balanced people. This is why Ted Danson's DB Russell from the west coast and cosily married knows he is the weirdo.
