Eleventh Hour 10/9/08

Dr. Jacob hood is a scientific investigator. He is in Seattle investigating the possible cloning of babies. They have found 19 jars of medical waste they later determine to be attempts at cloning a human.

There is a pregnant woman, carrying a cloned baby. Her ex is a wife beater, he sees her in the grocery store and knocks her around. She is rescued by a strange woman, who describes herself as "your own personal nurse." They go to a warehouse where they have set up a makeshift clinic. She is in danger of losing the baby.

The man paying for the cloning is called Gipetto, like Pinocchio's father. Can't have a boy, you make your own. Dr. Hood and his body guard search the society pages and find a billionaire who has lost his son.

Meanwhile, the pregnant mom goes to the hospital after some serious bleeding. She'd been warned not to, she has a young boy and they have told her that DHS would take him if she did go to the hospital. They did. Once she is feeling better, she leaves her room, finds her boy and vanishes.

The cloning team finds her at her apartment. The police who have been monitoring suspicious pregnancies find out where she lives and go to her apartment. The ex gets there first and the personal nurse stabs him in the neck with scissors. When the Dr. and his body guard get there, the ex is still alive, the mom is gone, and the young boy is hiding in the room.

Dr. Hood asks the police to help him, but it might cost the police man his job.

The cloners are in another makeshift hospital. The girl is resting, the ob is scared he's going to jail, the personal nurse injects hims with something and he passes out.

The Dr. goes to the dad's house. They try to convince him that he needs to let his dead son go. They discuss their individual losses, the dad says when his son died his life was over. The dad says he just wants to see his son again. The doctor pulls out one of the jars with the dead cloned baby inside and opens it up and gives it to him. The doctor says his son is not his DNA, but every moment he ever spent with his father, every meal his mother had ever made him. Every moment his son lived is what made him his son.

The dad reveals to the doctor where they have taken the girl, the team goes and when they enter the clinic they hear the hum of a flatline. Another woman is performing CPR on the girl, the "personal nurse" attacks the body guard and gets beat up.

The doctor discovers that Gipetto is the woman performing CPR. She stops and leaves once her identity has been revealed. The doctor and the body guard try to revive her, which they do. But she lost he baby. She also cannot have any more babies.

The doctor gets a call on his cell and tells his body guard they have a situation they need to get to.

****Good, but not great. It is a Jerry Bruckheimer production, so we'll be giving it more chances.

CSI 10/9/08

Warrick is dead. Didn't think they'd do it, but he's dead.

We all know that Under Sheriff McKeen did it, we saw it at the end of last season. When Grissom gets to the scene he finds McKeen there, McKeen claims to be a witness. He was going to the diner they had all been at to tell Warrick he could keep his job. You'll remember that Warrick had just been released from jail for killing the mob boss Gedda. He didn't actually do it, a beat cop named Pritchard had killed him, and framed Warrick.

Grissom held Warrick as he died. The team shows up one by one, Grissom tells Eckle that they will be the ones processing.

They quickly determine that Pritchard did not do it. Warrick's passenger window had been rolled down, Warrick would not have rolled down his window to speak with a guy who had just framed him for murder.

The team also determines that McKeen could not have heard a gunshot from where he claimed to be. There was a night club in the alley and their music was too loud. They determine that it must be McKeen. First witness is always first suspect.

Sarah had returned to Vegas when she heard the news, as she and lab boy were at Warrick's they find out that he had a son. We later learn his ex wife had a baby, a boy named Eli. Warrick had a video of his psychological submitted to determine who was the more fit parent. On it, he says even though his father and mother had died, he had a father figure, he never says but we can assume it is Grissom.

McKeen had been keeping Pritchard in some cheap hotel, and had gone to retrieve him. They left under the guise of McKeen helping Pritchard escape to Mexico. While enroute, Brass phones him to give him an update, and also to triangulate his cell signal. They find him and Stokes goes with Brass to nab McKeen and Pritchard.

Pritchard has figured out that he's going to die if he doesn't do something drastic, he ends up shooting McKeen while they are driving down the road, hoping he'll survive the crash, he doesn't.

Nick and Brass find the crash and Nick follows a blood trail into the woods. He finds McKeen with a major stomach wound. McKeen starts to tell Nick about how he shot Warrick, how he did it because Warrick was stupid, trying to get Nick to put him out of his own misery. Brass hears a gunshot and finds Nick standing over a motionless McKeen with a gun pointed at his head.

Nick tells Brass they need to get him a medivac. Brass asks "what was that shot?"

Nick says "A miss."

Yea! Nick for keeping him miserable, keeping him alive to live with himself. Also keeping him in a great deal of pain for the foreseeable future.

At Warrick's funeral, Grissom speaks. Says the words they are trained to offer, "I'm sorry for your loss," don't offer much. He says he'll miss him.
