Quotes

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.

Stairway To Heaven

A young married woman is lying dead at the bottom the stairs, head and torso perfectly in line and with tons of blood. The husband had frantically called the paramedics but the woman's body shows it was an hour before the man called for help.

The three main questions are: 1 - did she fall down the steep stairs and kill herself? 2 - did she fall up the stairs (they show how that could happen) and kill herself? 3 - Did someone kill her at the bottom of the stairs, hitting her with a blunt object?

As the story unravels, we get some of the normal kinky sex angles this show seems to revel in the past few years, such as the husband getting turned on my another woman biting him (hence the title of the episode). It gets intriguing when it's discover the husband's first wive was also found dead at the bottom of stairs...but that doesn't necessarily make him the killer.

"We may have our first serial stairway killer," says medical examiner "Dr. Robbins," in the best line of the show.
