Episode Synopsis
Grissom and his team investigate a murder suspect who is caught red-handed -- burying the victims -- while Catherine and Warrick take on the case of a woman found dead in a hotel spa.
As Grissom, Nick and Sara investigate the seemingly clear-cut murder case, Grissom questions the simplicity of the evidence when he discovers that the suspect burying the victims is the brother of a convicted felon.
Meanwhile, Catherine and Warrick must determine if the woman found dead in the hotel spa was the victim of negligence, foul play or heat-induced natural causes.

I started watching CSI with the season premiere of season 3. But since that episode, I havent missed one. Im completely obsessed. I love the characters, i love the stories, i love every little thing. - and i can't stand the other CSI. its just not right. something about it..
anyway. since i hadnt seen all the other episodes, i started downloading them off Bit Torrent.. So i've been watching them. Season two, backwards tho. And now for my point..
I saw "Alter Boys" tonight and i flipped. The whole episode was great as usual, but the last 10 minutes were just incredible. And i can honestly say, i cried. When Grissom was talking to the priest (and im even jewish! lol) and how meaningful it was that Grissom got the blood on his hands, like a sign from g-d. You could tell thats what he was thinking.
I love many episodes (Lady Heathers Box, Jackpot, Let the Seller Beware) but this one really blew m mind. So brilliant.
Anyway, just had to vent. :)

This episode is an exceptionally well written, cinematographed and directed one... probably the best so far in the entire series.

Great episode! Oh and there's a mistake in "Guest Starring"! Roger Jennings was portrayed by Jeremy Renner not Kenner=]

Although this was an EXCELLENT episode - I find it very unsettling - I've only been able to watch it the one time. It broke my heart to think that in the real world - this does happen!
