We start off in the ER with a father rushing in his young son, saying they were near the explosion. 'What explosion?" He explained an ambulance had blown up on Michigan Street. When we left last season Sam and Pratt were deciding who was going to do a ride along with a witness protection patient. As Gates is leaving in an ambulance to go check he sees Sam in the ambulance bay.
Next we see Abby passed out in the street, a little bruised, a little bloody. Near a fire being attended to by fire fighters. We see Pratt in the front of the ambulance, he is conscious. The driver has been impaled. Pratt and Abby are now patients, Pratt is vomiting blood. Pratt claims to be alright.
Next we see Neela and Brennan getting dressed after their rondevous in the break room. Everyone is rushing to help Pratt who is dictating orders for everyone else. Abby has a broken wrist. Mrs. "Gharrett" is a patient, and is demanding Abby's time. Abby gets her wrist set and goes back to break the news to Pratt that the bone sticking out of his leg isn't his. He also has "blast lung" which caused bruising on his lungs. His sats are going down and he needs to be intubated.
Another patient who has asthma was in a car near the blast. She knows a lot about her condition, and her nanny is calling her mom.
They are having trouble intubating Pratt. The ambulance driver is going up to surgery. They still can't intubate, they are going to "Crike" him, opening his throat to provide oxygen. There isn't a crike tray in the room so they improvise.
Pratt's brother finds out he's in the ER and goes in to visit him. Pratt can't talk because of the crike.
Asthma girl is "acting weird" according to her mom, and she passes out.
Meanwhile Pratt has developed a mass in his neck, and is going to need surgery. And Abby is going to run test for the asthma girl. There is a very weird web tester guy with a broken leg bugging Abby and then Pratt starts spraying blood out of his mouth. Neela has to tie off his carotid to stop the bleeding. They are calling his girlfriend and the asthma girl is crashing too. They figure that the asthma girl inhaled cyanide, and Abby runs back to Pratt's room.
They pull a bone out of Pratt's throat. Abby pushes meds on the asthma girl, and then Pratt goes into V-fib. Pratt needs to go on bypass and they are performing CPR. When they get Pratt stabilized on bypass. They determine that Pratt may have had an air embolis. He is currently has no brain activity, but they think he may recover, they'll wait four hours and reassess.
Morris tells everyone to get back to work, but not in the normal jerky Morris way. Pratt's brother stays behind. They perform an ultrasound after two hours, they see no cardiac activity. Gates asks Pratt's brother if it's ok they honor Pratt's wishes to be an organ donor. If necessary.
At four hours they determine that Pratt is brain dead. They are all standing by when they pronounce that Pratt is dead. They explain that he is going to stay on bypass to keep his organs vital. Pratt's brother pushes his gurney upstairs so that they can harvest his organs. Frank helps them with the elevator and touches Pratt as he's wheeled by.
The next scene is one week later. Everyone appears to be returning from Pratt's funeral. Dr. Weaver and Dr. Carter have sent gifts in memory. Pratt's fiance' tells them all that they were Pratt's family.
Broken leg weirdo gets wheeled into the ER, they remember him and that he was annoying. Neela is needed in Trauma and doesn't have time to change out of her clothes. Weird broken leg guy has sepsis in his leg and they decide to wash his leg in the ER.
Abby tells Haleh that she and Luka were thinking about moving, but don't know now.
Morris is in a room with Betina, Pratt's fiance' he asks how she's doing after her surgery for colon cancer. Morris fumbles around a lot. Morris tells her he's been holding on to something. He pulls the ring Pratt had bought in the last episode out and gives it to her. She cries, they hug.
Gates and Sam are walking and talking. Sam tells him that she could've been on the ambulance, and she doesn't want to waste time. She thinks they "have something real". Morris interrupts and they decide to go to Ike's. Anspaugh calls and tells his nephew or whatever he is, that they were going to offer the ER Chief position to Pratt. Gates leaves to chase after Chaz, Pratt's brother and invites him to Ike's. He says he can't handle it, Gates encourages him to come. Chaz regrets not knowing him for the first 18 years of his life. He tells them to "have a good time at your party".
Broken leg guy caused his sepsis by scratching under his cast with a wire coat hanger. The woman that he saved when he broke his leg comes to visit him.
They are all gathered at Ikes. Morris asks if anyone wants to say anything. Neela tells everyone how Pratt helped her through the death of her husband. Chaz shows up, and says he was clueless before he met Pratt. Abby reads a letter telling of the people who got Pratt's organs. He saved three lives that day. Morris tells how he and Pratt used to go to Ikes for Mozzarella sticks and then several orders come out and they toast him with cheese sticks.

Criminal Minds 9-24-08
Started late due to Presidential speech. If you didn't DVR CSI New York and still have the opportunity run and do that now. My husband was great and when the President came on he immediately set to record everything on all channels through the rest of the evening. We love him don't we?
Recapping where we left off. Serial killer loose in New York. Cameras have gotten video of all of the killings. If the lady in charge doesn't solve the case Morgan is set to replace her. One of the local cops gets shot. The team figures out it's terrorism. And finally the SUV blows up.
Scattered bits of paper falling from the sky. Slowwwww motion. Hotch holding something, but dazed and confused. See's the car and time resumes. He can't hear. He's got a thing for Kate, now he finally figures out Kate was in the car, was but no longer is. She's been blown down the street, a bloody mess and looking for her purse. She's in shock apparently. And not in pain.
Apparently help isn't coming, because the team figured out they were targeting the first wave of responders. So, the ambulance and fire officials were notified to not respond.
Garcia is calling everyone to see who's missing. Not Reid, not Rossi, not Morgan, not Prentis, not JJ.
The cameras show that the bomb was planted after the car was parked and the bomb setter stopped in the area. All of the cell phones are dead. Morgan pulls the Marine card and gets through the barricade. The unsub is "helping" and tells them "good luck" when he leaves. Morgan gets the call from Garcia and a chase ensues.
Leading Mogan into, no doubt, a first responder ambush. Just shoot the guy already. Meanwhile a paremedic shows up. Shady me thinks. Morgan chases the unsub through the subway and it is Morgan v. unsub who is nowhere to be found. How sexy is Morgan with his gun? Mmm hmm. Now Morgan is in the tunnels. Unsub shows himself, walking on the rails, taunting him and finally doing himself in on the third rail.
Homeland security is revisiting all of the murder sites, nothing. Paramedic still seems shady. Hotch talks his way throught the ER barricade. They get inside and Hotch collapses.
They figure that the profile is wrong. The city is about to get hit. And I was right about the paramedic. He's the bomb maker, and the bomb is in the ambulance that Hotch brought into the hospital. The Secret Service had the hospital on lockdown, meaning someone big is inside, and the place is about to go Kaboom.
Morgan goes downstairs and hotwires the ambulance with the bad guy chasing after him and shooting. Garcia has jammed the cell towers but they only have three minutes. The entire team ends up in the ambulance bay and find all of the Secret Service Men dead in the elevator. The suicide bomber is sitting in the bay holding a knife so he can kill himself as soon as he blows up the ambulance. The entire team is there and can shoot him in the back. The cell service is coming back online and Morgan tells Garcia.... nothing because the ambulance blows up. The paramedic slits his own throat. And we see that Morgan escaped from the ambulance and tells Garcia that she is his "God given solace. Whatever happens don't you ever stop talking to me."
The team is standing over the suicide bomber and it cuts to the interior of the hospital where we find that Kate has died. No tubes inserted for surgery, looking beautiful for being blown to smithereens.
The other good news is the local cop who was shot is alive and well. Prentiss gives him crap about smoking in the hospital. They flirt back and forth even though he's married. She gives him "great seats" to the Mets, and he wonders why she didn't assume he was a Yankees fan.
Morgan drives Hotch back to DC, because Hotch can't fly because of the bomb. Morgan has been requested to run the New York office. Hotch says he has and always will trust his life to Morgan, but asks Morgan if he can return the sentiment.
And roll credits.

America's Got Talent 9-24-08
Shortened version due to Presidential Speech.
Going first tonight is Nuttin But Stringz. They are doing a song that they wrote. They got a standing O from the judges, and the crowd was on their feet the whole time.
Piers says that they are what is right with America. The winner is someone who has the most unique talent, the most dynamism. He thinks they are the winners.
Sharon says their material is never ending. It's incredible.
The Hoff says Nuttin but Vegas.
Second up is Donald Braswell. He is singing "You Raise Me Up." My vote is that is a bad call. You can't sing a song that Josh Groban does impeccably. You just won't compare. He has gotten a lot better than he was in the beginning. The judges were wrong to not advance him past Vegas the first time. He is good but he's no Josh. A few people stood.
Sharon says his personality isn't up to the competition, she said he needs to go to Broadway.
Hoff disagreed.
Piers says the last note was a little over the top. You've lived your dream, and Piers commended him for proving the judges wrong.
Next up is Neal E. Boyd. My favorite, just because he is so sweet and so talented. He sang an opera song. I wouldn't know the name of it, but he does opera best. He has quite the voice. His mom was there to see his performance. A lot of people stood.
Hoff says he is honored to have been on the journey with him. This is what America is all about.
Piers says he's in a strange and uncomfortable position, because he agreed with David.
Sharon says she'd heard the song many times before but never as beautiful as he did it tonight.
Fourth up this evening was another male vocalist, Eli Mattson. He sang "Against All Odds" by Phil Collins. He's more of a Marc Cohn type singer, it was good but not great. I'm glad he got this far, I'm sure he'll go places from here. Of course young and good looking may get him far.
Piers says what he likes most about him is that he takes old classics and makes them his own.
Sharon says he has a great voice, he is a great musician, he's young and good looking.
Hoff says he's the dark horse. He has class and he's real.
Queen Emily is the only woman left. She sang "One Moment in Time" she did a great job. I'm glad that there is a talent show for people older than 20 something. The crowd was on their feet early on for the first time since Nuttin but Stringz.
Piers said she looked like a Queen tonight, and that this was her best performance of the competition. He said she'd struggle to win against Nuttin but Stringz
Sharon said she is a Diva. Her confidence shines through, and the audience feels good when she performs.
Hoff says she looks like a princess, I think he was trying to be clever. You'll go on to have an amazing career.
Go and vote for your favorite at www.nbc.com and tune in next Wednesday for the reveal. Lots of surprises.
