Huh. This sounds like a bit of change of pace, fighting to save a neighbourhood, albeit from another street gang.

Dalet

[sanne]

Sounds like a different epi compared to the past few we've had......but interesting nevertheless.

Sandra

[Laci Caine]

Nice change of pace I think. I'm interested to see what they do with it.

[Sharon Caine]

I really did love this episode! It was just awesome! I loved Horatio in this episode! He was caring yet cautious with that girl (I forgot her name) and he was just...awesome! =)

This episode really felt like the old times, I really enjoyed it. I'd have to say that the ending was a fitting ending to this year, I think it was a great episode. I look forward to the new episodes in the new year.

[Hcrazy]

I agree... Absolutely LOVE IT! It feels like we are HOME!

What a great episode. The ending really touched my heart and the look on Delko's face when the house blew was OMG, amazing!

We had a bit of H&C which I loved of course but all around I Loved every bit of this episode.

Yes from what I know we have plenty more fun heading our way in the new year.

I give this episode a 10! Oh and H gets a hug. I wish the young woman would have giving him a hug in the end, but it was nice to see Nat touch Horatio's arm in an affectionate way.

HCrazy still smiling!

[Dalet]

Wow. This episode was just beautiful in so many ways! I want to re-watch it already. It was so touching; everybody had a role to play. I loved Natalia's mini sup-plot with the funeral owner, and her short but sweet conversation with Horatio at the end.

Just a really heartfelt episode all over, I think. <3

Dalet

[Hcrazy]

Heartfelt! YES! Yes! Yes!

Perfect word Dalet!

HCrazy

[Dalet]

Ahaha, thank you, Hcrazy. Actually, thank you for mentioning the pat on the arm from Natalia. I thought it was ADORABLE, but I didn't want to spaz for fear of all the DuCaine fans. Hehe.

When it started, I was thinking the episode deserved a 5 or 6, but after the scene with H, Frank and Salazar in which we find out Salazar's motive, I IMMEDIATELY gave it a 10. It was simply fantastic. I think it's my second favorite episode this season, and that's saying something! Very, very impressed.

Did anyone else sit up and go "Whoa" during that interview scene when H was sitting on the couch (or was it a chair)?? I can't remember the last time he SAT while talking to a suspect. It gave the entire scene a COMPLETELY different feel. And when he got slightly choked up after Salazar reminded him of the case H had worked in the jail--I was rather impressed.

One last thing--WOOH for David and Emily having a scene together again. And a BIGGER WOOH for actually having them in the same shot. Here's hoping we see more of them together in the future.

em

[Dalet]

Ah, yes, Em! He had his legs crossed while he was sitting, too, didn't he? Mmmm, I loved that. And I was SO excited to hear them referencing that old case!

Dalet

[ehmalo01]

Oh.....and there was another JK moment, albeit a quick one. I'll point it out when I cap the epi tomorrow. He looked better than he has recently. And one more thing--I like the shirt he was wearing in the final scene. YUM.

em

[sanne]

It really sounds as if they saw the light and bring the show back to the good old days this season.....I can't wait 'til they start airing S7 over here..........For now we have to do with reruns (tonight the epi in which Cruz (I believe it is him) is "transporting" drugs in snakes.......)

Besides being a "DuCainer" I love EVERY good ep, even when it's without a DuCaine-moment, so don't mind to post such nice details.. ;D ;D ;D And it seems as if this ep belonged to the best eps of the year. I'm looking forward to see it in..... hmmm.... I think the end of 2009 will be the time we'll see it in Germany

sanne: same over here. From today on we gonna have reruns of s4 (only "Rampage" and "One of our own") and after new year, we gonna have a rerun of the season1 until the beginning of March or so. Then they are planning to air the second half of season 6. Loooooong time to wait!

[Sharon Caine]

I have a question. When Salazar talks about an that old case with Horatio, what was the name Horatio said and was it in an earlier episode?

I can't stop saying how great this episode was! And I went "whoa" to when he was sitting. It was awesome! =)
