Storyline

College boy Brian Lister fell to his death, backstage at night, on the teeth of one of Kyle Adams's Australian 'Walking With dinosaurs' firm's mechanical stars. His girlfriend and her other lover Travis Kilborn lie, trying to hide their biology classmates triangle. Wealthy Phil Kohner was murdered at home. The main item missing was his favorite wrist watch, a gift by his lover, the mother of the girl who was his daughter's buddy until both were killed by Eli Holt, who is still in jail and never divulged the whereabouts of the girls' corpses, one of which is now found.

Goofs

When Carly Beck talks on the phone to the friend of convicted murderer Eli Holt she is told to take the second 5K to the "same locker at the park". Earlier we are shown the letter from inmate Holt and it says to "put the cash in the garbage can at North Vegas Park", not a locker. The only other communication was the map Holt sent her after she made the first money drop.

User Reviews

Some Fun, But Some Unpleasant Things, Too

This episode was different (as most CSI stories are) but kinda too weird and unpleasant in spots, yet it had a clever ending on one of the crimes. (This is a two-crime story._ The first crime involves geeky kids and fake dinosaurs while the second is a sad and sordid tale of a woman whose daughter and friend disappeared years ago and were never found. Slowly, they are found in this story: dead and mummified in a shallow, rural grave. It's not a pleasant story.

The dinosaur angle, however, was kind of neat and I don't want to give away anything more than that.

By the way, I agree with the other reviewer that Katee Sackhoff as "Det. Frankie Reed" is extremely annoying and overly macho. She's not a good addition to the show. I've never liked "Hodges," either, played by Wallace Langham. He's too sleazy and his humor too juvenile for an older man. The rest of the cast is just fine. My favorites have always been "Nick" and "Sara."
