Did anyone else have to turn their head away or change the channel during the scenes where the compulsive gambler repeatedly stabbed himself to death?

Like this would ever really happen, not even in a low security prison. As often as head counts are taken, the prison staff would have know the girl was missing before it ever left the yard. I give this one a 1 for lack of credibility.

Someone please help me with something? is this the episode where they called the one girl "Baby girl" or "Baby doll" or something like that?

I like this episode alot. kwillows- I didn't have to turn my head, because I've seen much worse. It was just so sad how he killed himself for Zero, and Zero wont get the money because it was suicide. MrsSzmanda- Yep its the one with baby girl, her name

I like the display of (tragic) brotherly love.. I'm still trying to find the music tey play when the two brothers are talking to each other... I love CSI music.

This one was full of messages.. The suicide thing was so greatly taken care, I was shocked (great acting also) the other investigation was nothing special, except the leg breaking the frontshield of car!

The suicide scene made me ache and yet...does anyone know what music they were playing while Adanto was killing himself? Kind of sad and haunting.

The most memorable moment for me in this episode was when Warrick viewed the tape of Zero losing all of his money during the blackjack game. As a recovering gambling addict, Warrick knows all about the heartbreak that comes with losing, and as he watches

I liked this episode for a few reasons. The apparent murder that turns into a suicide I thought was very interesting. The female prison case was good too because I was honestly guessing up until the end.
