Quotes 

• Catherine Willows : What are you thinking?

  Gil Grissom : Led Zeppelin.

  [pause. Grissom glances up the stairs] 

  Gil Grissom : Stairway to Heaven.

• David Phillips : It's like the Red Sea in here.

  Gil Grissom : The Red Sea's not red, David.

  David Phillips : No, it's blue from afar and transparent when held in hand, like any other body of water. I was just speaking figuratively.

• LVPD Capt. Jim Brass : Okay, the husband says he fell asleep, he woke up, his wife was dead.

  Gil Grissom : He's a good sleeper.

• Gil Grissom : That's odd. A man and a woman who don't share a bedroom arrange to have a night alone, send their daughter to a relative, go out to dinner, have drinks by the pool, but they sleep in separate bedrooms.

  Sara Sidle : Maybe one of them snored or had insomnia or liked to work at night.

  Gil Grissom : Or maybe they were suffocating each other and he couldn't breathe.

• Al Robbins : [about Becky Lester's injuries]  Exsanguination from five lacerations: two to the forehead, one to the right temple and two to the occipital bone.

  Gil Grissom : Are they consistent with a fall?

  Al Robbins : Yes, but I'd expect to see hand fractures as a result of the impact, and there are none.

  Gil Grissom : Are they consistent with blunt force trauma?

  Al Robbins : Sure, but if the husband bludgeoned her, there'd be fractures to the skull.

  Gil Grissom : And there are none.

  Al Robbins : None.

  Gil Grissom : Well, you've given me a lot of information, doc, and none of it very helpful.

• LVPD Capt. Jim Brass : Husband and wife, home alone, all that blood, shaky alibi. Plus, he says, "He just looks guilty."

  Gil Grissom : How does one "look" guilty?

• Gil Grissom : [to ADA Sinclair]  For the record, I think you're filing prematurely.

  A.D.A. Jeffrey Sinclair : As always, I value your opinion, but I'm confident in our decision to move forward. But, come on, Grissom. Granted, the first death was a natural, but two dead women married to the same guy found in a stairwell? Lightning doesn't strike in the same place twice.

  Gil Grissom : Actually, it does. The Empire State Building gets struck 20 times a year.
