Season 1 Episode 10

As we get to the end of this season already, I’m wondering about the future of this franchise and unlikelihood of a season 2 renewal. I know that TV Grim Reaper does not have this as likely cancelled yet. They have it as likely renewal. We’ll see which one of us winds up being right. I’ll have to check a news source that I saw on imdb that covered more of this franchise and what would happen.

 

Note that other blogs will be affected by this one, but largely just CSI: Cyber blog for now. There will be two potential things happening with this blog in the future. It all depends on whether or not it gets renewed. I will be giving this blog’s timeslot if you will to CSI: Cyber. I will share a link to that blog again at the end of this post since I will be putting updates about this blog in that blog with it taking over in a way until I know more about what will happen here and if this show is coming back.

 

Note that Good Sam is replacing this. I’m trying to juggle my blogs around and having a harder time at it than the CW has had with their schedules recently. Note that I will go back to sharing some of what shows replaced what, something that I had found to be outdated due to covid. But I won’t be doing too much with that.

 

Another thing to talk about is just how good I find this series to be. If this is the series finale like I think that it might be, then it looks like they saved the best episode for last. I can only hope that it ends well regardless of if it comes back again for a season 2 or even more than that.

 

The first part has the news talking about David’s confession that has infuriated many. The team is convinced that he was taken. A lot of twists can be expected in this episode in the end. Just don’t go too crazy. Allie wonders if David is still alive. Maxine is convinced that David’s confession is false. If David took the deal, it would have ruined the plan of Wix. Maxine isn’t reinstated, but she is given temporary access and demands her chair back.

 

Hugo finds something curious while looking through the crime scene. He thinks that there are hairs and there could be a clue left for them. The clue is tin, but maybe he meant to write more than that. We see a person named Tiny being talked to. David is alive, but in bad shape. Tiny is convinced that a lack of evidence will win the day. He must be a Republican. It seems that David might be tortured more some.

 

The second part has Gilmerro being worked on in autopsy. He was bound, had his tongue cut out, and executed. He was in the trunk of a car and was trying to get away using his mouth as that’s all he could use. The rest of the team finds someone who goes by Tiny. I hope that they make the link. They do. That’s a relief. It turns out that the first name of Wix is Ansen. That’s kind of like Ansom, the main villain of Kingdom Hearts 1. Tiny is brought into interrogation. His shoe is being investigated in some way, shape, or form.

 

They think that Tiny is an accomplice. I know that a scarf was once sent to jail due to the person wearing it committing murder. The scarf was charged as an accessory. They think that they can get more of what’s going on with David relating to this. We then see people with a car since it was what Gilmerro was talking about. Ansen talks to Gil and he is able to get possible evidence into what’s going on. Ansen is the typical cocky villain who like many various characters of all types of good or bad says to the person on the phone that he has to call them back. Gil points out that the littlest thing can change things in a case.

 

The third part has Gil talking about the drugs that are going on with some sort of gambling going on. They think that David might be at a hotel, which isn’t that much of a choice as to where he might be just yet. There is some welding going on. As long as you aren’t a bear, you should be fine. I just hope that he believes you even if it is a lie. Still, you have to fight this boss and turn off the fan somehow to get a jiggy.

 

Allie talks to Josh about her boyfriend Mark. But they get distracted by the case and more clues coming forth in it. It is a lighter that they find. They find a link to a woman named Tiffany who is a stripper and possible hooker. The team looks through one of the hotels where it is likely David might be.

 

Meanwhile, Ansen has his trial with the civil cases, playing the footage of David confessing. Tiffany admits that she used to date Tiny as recently as a week ago. But maybe Tiny wouldn’t pleasure her. Also, did it take too long for there to be strippers in this show? Tiny is found. He must have been sticking out where they knew to look. David tries to help himself escape. Tiny is being chased. The judge decides to lift the stay on the civil trial. It seems that Tiny dies before revealing key info. I always hate it when that happens.

 

The fourth part has Josh talking to Allie about what happened. She is convinced that Tiny was going to tell her more about what was going on. One of them got away. They need evidence that Ansen was in that car as they are back to square one. They might have found something that could work.

 

Anna, Ansen’s sister, has Huntington’s disease and it is enough evidence to arrest Ansen, but not yet convict him. They find more evidence in the car as a lot of what was going on links back to him. He tells Gil good luck following the evidence. That seems like Ansen is asking for trouble.

 

The fifth part has Maxine making a potential breakthrough with the case. She does not know what might be going on as they find a potential empty casino where they might be able to find David. There is a way that they can find David in room 208, the only room that they can’t reach via an emergency switchboard. He is found alive and week. Ansen is still in jail with Gil and Sara saying that they found David. Gil gives details about how the best story wins and Ansen is likely to go to jail.

 

David looks like he is recovering okay. Allie finds something, but I can’t quite understand that. It might lead back to Josh in some way? It seems like we end with a montage. But there is a last minute cliffhanger of a potential serial killer in Las Vegas. What is going on there?

 

I can only hope that this isn’t the end as I would be bothered by this last scene that they could have cut out of the end. This isn’t the type of cliffhanger that I would be okay with them ending the series on. If they took out that ending, then I wouldn’t mind anything else that would be going on with it.

 

Note that everything relating to this blog will be in my CSI: Vegas blog for now. I will not be doing cast updates with it as I would end this blog if this show is over for good. If there is a second season or, possibly, some other CSI show, then I probably won’t be doing much else until the show returns and I see what’s going on with that. So as for any notes on what this blog will be like in the future, just know that everything will be in that blog so go to this link:

There’s not much else to say in this post as I end it here. I won’t even be doing a send off post if there is no second season or replacement CSI show. I don’t know why they would do a completely different show, but that is for my other blog to talk about. I was a bit confused by some links that I saw about it, but didn’t have time to read at the moment when I looked it up. I hope to find more there and you’ll see about it there in my other blog. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

Season 1 Episode 9

I was wanting to put this in my Good Fight blog at one point, but I decided that it would best make sense in this blog. This blog is on a serious topic so if you want to see more serious videos on my YouTube channel, then look at this video playlist that I have here. I have another that I’ll try to work into another blog at some point once I have enough videos for it.

Next, you will see the lyric video on Funhouse. I think that I understand this song more now. While this uses a parallel to the concept of a funhouse, it seems to be about a woman realizing that she’s in a bad and abusive relationship and is ready to leave it all behind her.

The first part has a person freaking out who appears to be tortured and kidnapped then dead. We then get to a trial going on right now. A lawyer talks about what is going on in her mind as she is convinced of David’s guilt. He thinks that the jury hates him. Maxine then talks to a person who talks about Wix. They think that this relates to a 20 year old kidnapping. Is this one of the early ones on the show?

 

They think that evidence that he has could prove that Wix is guilty while making it seem like he (this person they are interviewing) could avoid jail. Meanwhile, the team sees the standalone case of the week.

 

The second part has Hugo showing the two dead bodies to people. The person’s son shows up, expecting them to be dead. They were estranged. He thinks that this was what was bound to happen, given their lifestyles. Money is put through the crime scene lab in order to find evidence. Money, money, money/ must be funny/ in a rich man’s world. Some random woman is there wanting to help and wants to protect this place from Wix, wanting to make sure this place has integrity.

 

David is offered a deal where he is offered a deal for only 12 cases. He does not want to reject the deal right away, even if he would have to confess with this deal. He only has a week to accept the offer. Sara insists that he should talk to them before there is deal made by any of them.

 

While at a dinner with someone who isn’t Josh (I don’t know if this is a date with a man or something else entirely), Allie has a breakthrough in the case and a cause of death for the dead woman. They then see a magic show going on. They are ready for something of some sort or another.

 

The third part has people interviewing the people at the magic show and also looking through various weapons used with it. Tori is the name of the dead woman. Allie does not want to change jobs. Her boyfriend or whoever it was doesn’t like what she does for a living since he’s freaked out by it. I guess that her and Josh aren’t likely to have sex any time soon. Penny, one of the people here, might have made a bit of a mistake with one of the cases there.

 

Maxine learns that a person she is talking to didn’t talk to Wix. They need his help, but will have to find Wix themselves. A person that they are talking to mentions that he was taking things back that he wanted back that were his in the first place. Allie has to deal with her boyfriend. She finds evidence on Josh’s shoe. At David’s trial, Wix is there, but Gil and Sara have Gilmerro, probably the person from earlier. We then see someone walk in on a dead body.

 

The fourth part has Sara and Gil finding a body that was lured there for them to find. She thinks that it is their last shot, but he thinks that there is another. Who is this other hope? And is this line there just to know that Luke is possibly expendable? We then learn from a doctor about what happened more from the dead couple from the day that they disappeared.

 

Allie does not understand what went on with their blades as there could be an innocent explanation. But Josh sees a mirror or glass that could help with their case. He breaks it in front of the suspect. This surgeon who just seemed to be introduced might be the killer. He was giving Tori a placebo, making her a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy. This is an important thing to know about, as is Munchausen syndrome itself. This way, you’ll know if someone is bad because of another.

At the trial, we learn that David had recorded a confession that was streamed live to the internet. But they can’t find where he is. Gil is told to make sense of this, but he doesn’t understand what is going on. I think that David was kidnapped and this was done under duress. That’s how it came across in the way he was behaving.

 

The fifth part had Gil watching the video. He thinks that since he doesn’t take any confession at face value, that this could be a clue to where he is and what he’d doing. We then see the son of Tori accepting what really happened to his parents. Josh gives hints that Allie should break up with his boyfriend with Hugo spelling it out.

 

As for the David case, they learn through Penny that the video was made on a disposable cell, close to where David’s wife was about to give birth. Sara finds stuff there and thinks that bad things happened to David, although it isn’t clear based on the clips shown what is was. He is likely kidnapped.

 

On the next CSI: Vegas, there is a manhunt for David who might have been taken. It is the season finale. Or is it the series finale? I guess that we’ll have to wait and find out to see as I will get to in the next post. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
