Warrick: "I was talking to Tina the other night. She said something to make me think."
Greg: (coughs) "...Yoko Ono..."

My Comment:
The best episode this season so far. Good story and directing and lots of Greg scenes finally. The music is wonderfully soft and sad.

Greg and Sara. The gold star matter. Nice how he teases her and how she pouts. Greg jokes about Warrick´s marriage and Sara adopts the joke a minute later. Greg smiles. Then he teases Warrick again and Sara smiles. That´s really nice. Greg tells Sara something about his dad. Hey. When a man tells a woman something personal about himself that´s always a good sign. I still think it would be very good for Sara to get involved with Greg.

Greg and Nick. Greg makes a joke about Warrick´s marriage and Nick laughs out loud.

Greg is the one who finds the dropped pieces of gum in the first place. Way to go, boy.

Only the lack of Grissom is a little bit disappointing. The spoilers for this episode have been so promising. I would have liked seeing Grissom and Greg to sleep over in the same motel room but then again I would have hated seeing Grissom and Sara to get together.
