Episode Synopsis
A badly decomposed body is discovered in a beat-up chemical-waste drum in the desert. The investigation soon leads Catherine into the world of robotic demolition derbies in which custom-designed robots bash each other in combat-like competitions. Meanwhile, Grissom probes the death of a newly married man whose body is found in an alley.

Brass’ line when the guy tells them its $25 per person “I GOT A COUPON” cracked me up…. That cynical old cop gets some of the best lines.

I like the robot smashing story. The decomposing corp is also amazing. This series did it good with the make up effects.

A robot as a weapon? kinda weird. not one of my favorites, but ok. i liked cath's reaction at the end to the guy when she said she could relate to him and he said any animal can "squeeze a baby out between their legs."

Like it a lot. A well-written story. Alias, all CSI episodes, cast, and guest stars are versatiles actors and actresses.
