Oh Warrick!!
CSI: Las Vegas
So I thought this week’s episode was much better then last week, I still think that all the anger towards Warrick, while understandable, felt very forced.
So we start out looking at what we assume is a very hung-over and hurting Warrick, who is being interviewed by internal affairs. They are questioning him on the death of Candy, the stripper. The IAB detective feels that Warrick was blurring professional and personal boundaries at work and makes a few comments about Warrick’s pill popping along with the 300$ worth of alcohol he drank the night before.
They clear Warrick pretty quickly of any wrong doing (yay!) but he was sent home by a very pissed off Grissom and told not interfere with the case any longer. But of course, Warrick doesn’t listen.
He discovers that the there are only 2 sets of prints in his car, his and that of the bum that was hanging around last week. So they go to find the bum who is sleeping off his meth high in a tent city. Brass finds a bloody knife, Candy’s phone and purse underneath the bum.
Back in interrogation, the bum is high and unable to answer any questions; he seems to keep agreeing with Brass and Grissom. Warrick busts in and accuses the bum of taking the rap for Pegrelle and the bum stands up and starts yelling at Warrick. Basically blaming him for what had happened. Warrick is kicked out of the room by Grissom and argues with him in the hallway. Grissom tells Warrick that he is suspended for 2 weeks or he can be fired, the choice is his.
They cut to an officer in the shadows in the police station who calls Pegrelle to let him know that Warrick was suspended for 2 weeks.
Case #2 is a more sensitive topic dealing with dog fighting; I have noticed already there have been a few comments posted about it. I personally am glad that they are making a big deal of it. People should know it is a horrible thing and not only the ‘vicious’ breeds that suffer for it.
I am really happy we got to see Doc Robbins’s singing and his band, he is actually pretty good with his ‘moldy oldies’!!
The case is this: a woman is found dead with many dog bites, in a mass dog grave in the desert. It turns out Doc Robbins does know her, he saw her last night at the charity function where his band played. She won a humanitarian award. But in reality she was Las Vegas’s worst dog fighter or best in that her dogs always won. The victim worked out of a kennel where an informant, Tommy, was placed to infiltrate the dog fighting ring. Tommy couldn’t stand what was happening and that she wasn’t being stopped so he stopped her. The victim was murdered in the kennel, beaten, euthanized and then chewed on by the injured/saved fighting dogs. She was then dumped in the desert.
The husband knew all about it, which was the reason he left early, so she would go to the kennels to get what was coming to her.
All and all, it was a good episode. It was nice to see the interaction in the lab and I got a kick out of Hodges’s warning to Wendy about being an ass kisser! I think he really likes her!
I felt so sorry for the dogs, what an awful thing to go through, to me though, the saddest scene was the chihuahua shivering in the cage next to the bandaged dog. How pathetic and sad it looked.
It was nice to see Catherine and Det. Vega. As well as some Nick time! I loved the little comments he was making to the gangster couple while they were searching the house, but I only understood a little bit of what was said.
Much better then last week, I hope that Warrick gets his sh*t together sooner rather then later. Also it seems like this case may have a few episodes left in it. I hope it gets solved before they run out of new episodes.

Warrick sure looked "rode hard and put away wet" on this show. I guess every so often they have to mess the lookers up and make them act.
