Super!!!! One of my favorite CSI episodes! Catherine is acting so cool all the time, and that gives you a bit more knowledge about Willows.

I love this episode! Cath was really smart thinking. I like the part where Cath puts the finger on Sara's table.

this one's really smart I mean the way Willows left traces of where they are for Grissom is just awesome. I just find the part where Willows gave the finger to Sid le a bit too impolite

I thought this episode was quite weird like that rabbit man, But it was funny how Catherine just put the glass with the finger in it on Sara's table kinda ruined her date.

Catherine is so smart!!!!!and the rabbit wasn't high he used helium but this had to be the best eppy i have ever seen other than identity crisis...loved the finger in the glass...ya your right prob did ruin saras date!! lol

Excellent, one of the best CSI's. Really shows off how smart Catherine is. Didn't expect that the husband was the one who actually killed the girl. I thought the bunny mask was an interesting twist, along with the helium voice.

"We're watching you, CSI Willows!" I almost cracked up...it was like a bunny high on drugs...but it wasn't...good episode

Nice chapter, and terrific performance of Marg Helgenberger. The rest is almost forgotable.

The episode was surprisingly good for being so simple. One major plot to deal with rather then the shows average two per episode. Good twist at the end.

I would of been sort of scared if i was cath. But that was cool when she left clues for the CSIs. Even though she wsa helping the guy out.

This was one of the best episodes ever! Cath was awesome! She was so smart with all the clues she left. And Gris was so relieved when she finally called. Awww...

This is one of my favourite episode's in season 2. There was a very good twist in the end, and Catherine was really brave and stayed calm. i agree with sarasidlesnumber1fan. i would of been kinda scared if i was in Cath's shoes.

Poor Cath! Very good ep, the mask was so scary...Twisted guy, GREAT acting. Worthy of 10. Reminded me a bit of "The Bone collecter"
