CSI 15.6 "The Twin Paradox" Review
Things are hotting up with the investigation into the Gig Harbour Killer, another flashback to 2009 and how Finn (Elisabeth Shue) saved DB (Ted Danson) when she shot Jared (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) at the marina. She is with IA now and her gun is taken. She tells the IA detective Karen Park (Tina Haung) it was a good shoot since he was going to shoot Lab Director Russell. They were also there cos the judge gave them a warrant over the phone.
Back to the present and the killer surfaces again this ep as the CSIs receive another 911 call for help. Morgan (Elisabeth Harnois) tells DB that he needs to hear the ongoing call and tells him that the Vic
is being attacked right now, so he wants them to hear it. Greg (Eric Szmanda) triangulates the exact location using the GPS from the phone. Sara (Jorga Fox) and Nick (George Eads) arrive at the scene to find it's a recording being played and once again, the CS has been processed and marked, using the same stringing method. With Nick saying, "he's back." Which is what I said about him, cos he's back this ep, not being in the last one. The blood is dried and Nick says it's also flaky. Sara most noticeably saying the Vic, another blonde who is a student, but also most likely working in the sex trade.
Once again there is blood at the scene and this time Nick finds the cameras use film and it's all been exposed, so he's graduated onto taking CS photos now. Nick sees there's no blood on the walls and using ALS they can read a message which says, "People Lie, Follow the Evidence." That had echoes of Gil Grissom. Also there's a recorder which Sara tells him to play where he talks of what he did, as well as now he's into psychological profiling. Which back at the lab, Sara tells DB has the emphasis on 'psycho.' They listen to the recording made with the psychiatrist hired by Paul and Jared acts like he is crazy. As he tells her he doesn't know who he is and gets angry. Sara isn't convinced that Jared is the killer and thinks it is most likely Paul. Also when she analyzed the recording further, she found there were two sets of separate footsteps, one walks away and one walks towards the recorder. Obviously he has an accomplice and that was already seen the last ep we saw with the killer.
In Seattle, Daniel (Mark Valley) tells Finn he has a lead on Jared's mother, that an old detective friend gave him. They talk to the woman and are surprised to find that she's black. She's his adoptive mother and not birth mother, but she had to put her name on the birth certificate when she adopted him. They couldn't find out who the birth mother was and she was given the baby. She thinks she's to blame for how Jared was raised and tells them she got him from the convent, which used to take in teen mothers. They head to St Agnes where the nun, Sister Alice (Colleen Flynn) tells them there was a fire and the records were burnt down, but she didn't know Jared was a twin. One of the nuns tried to piece together records from memory and she takes them to a grave marked C-13. It is dug up and inside is a doll and not a DB. Finn removes the head and finds half a photo inside who must be their mother, as well as a lock of her hair. DNA analysis reveals that the hair belongs to their mother and they head back to Vegas. This means Paul knew he had a brother at least a year before, but said he didn't.
Keri Torres (Floriana Lima) is found by police in a brutalized state and she was lashed out towards them. She's taken to the hospital and Morgan receives the call, just as Henry (Jon Wellner) identifies the DNA as belonging to Keri. Morgan processes her and she wakes up and screams. Morgan asks her how she escaped and she said she thought she was surrounded by water since the light was blue, but it was glass, so she used the broken shard to cut herself free and ran towards the nearest light. She doesn't recognize Brad Turner as the man she met in the cafe and Morgan shows her another photo, which she doesn't react to. Greg meanwhile develops the film and finds the killer took some extra shots. One looks like a letter 'H' to him, but he manipulates it in a machine and it is revealed as being part of a structure. Hodges (Wallace Langham) tells them he analyzed the glass and found that the glass contained the usual silicon dioxide, but also tin dioxide, as well as blue hues, used in Japanese art. He knows cos his mother is a collector. Greg says Hodges' a genius cos he recognizes the building as being the Mizu. It was a poorly built hotel and was abandoned, part of the alphabet.
Greg and Finn go over there and you'd have thought they'd have taken some police with them, but apparently only the two of them check out the building. They have discovered his lair and Finn hears a noise. A woman is hiding inside a closet and she tells them there are other girls in a room. Finn looks for them and the woman lunges at Greg and attacks him from behind. She takes his gun and is afraid. His radio goes off cos it landed on its side and he has to radio back, or they'll shoot her. Finn walks in and once again she gets off some shots. As we find ourselves in the same routine again of her being questioned by IA. Daniel watches along with DB and says that they've all been there. Oh that was a clue.
DB talks with Paul and he's with an escort who DB says is young for him and he replies he'd say so cos he's got a daughter. Once again referring to Mya, as Finn did too when she was questioned back in 2009. DB tells her to take the taxi home and hang up if he calls cos he's a murderer. He tells Paul they know who his mother is and that they also found Keri. He feigns relief and says he'll like to talk to her. Also saying he didn't answer their questions cos he wasn't asked the right one and he didn't like Finn either, she shot his brother. Strange Keri has been found and after her ordeal she doesn't have any security outside her room.
Doc (Robert David Hall) conducts an autopsy on the woman shot by Finn and tells David (David Berman) that she had a transgender operation. Her DNA matches that from the one they found on the Vics in the desert and Finn thinks that Paul manipulated the man into helping him. That all of this was a set up. Well it was, for Finn. Adding that they can't trust the evidence. DB saying if they can't do that, then they have nothing. Daniel visits Keri at the hospital, but she gets hysterical when she sees him and Finn sees him leave. DB meets with Avery Ryan (Patricia Arquette) again and she's looked at the evidence and done a profile on Paul and Jared but she doesn't tell DB anything he doesn't already know. She tells him that he must rely on an intern, but that means he's not that committed to the killings and since Paul's a serial killer, he has to keep going. The only way to find him is to find the partner. Which also means DB has to use Mya and if he doesn't then he'll have to take himself out of the equation.
Cue partner as we see him standing in the car reflection: Daniel. That wasn't any surprise since Paul practically hinted at there being a corrupt police officer in the Seattle PD. He gets into the car with Paul. Also the fact that Keri reacted in the way she did when she saw him, cos if they were really close still, then she would've wanted to see him. But why did he show up there anyway cos obviously she'd remember something eventually as Finn said she would.
Sara talks with Greg and he's sad he couldn't save the woman and should've done things differently. There's nothing he can do about it and he'll realize that in time, but also she says she wishes she could tell him it gets better. Obviously after what she's been through as well, she needs that too. Ahh, no hug for Greg like she gave Morgan last ep. Their scenes are always good and it's touching how she and Greg can still talk with each other, especially with Greg almost in tears. Nick seemed to vanish after his few scenes, of finding out that the cameras were set up in a constellation this time round and showed that of Virgo. Which was in relation to the girls working in the sex trade and weren't really virginal after all.
Of course the focus was always going to be on DB's daughter and he doesn't want to get her involved, things were tense between them last time we saw them as well. Still at least it was good to see Mark Valley playing a bad guy for once, but it will be interesting to know how he got mixed up with Paul. Most likely he has something on him. Of course they'll probably have Finn suspect something, then again maybe she won't. Like I said, she always attracts the bad guy element.
