Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe skinned human bodies in the episode were created by spraying a mannequin with a layer of latex, which was then peeled off. Makeup technicians then took the "peeled skin" and positioned it onto other mannequins that had been designed to resemble the actors. The faux skin was created to look "moist" and was composed of over 200 prosthetic pieces. Fake veins were then overlaid on top of the skin.
- Goofs(at around 43 mins) The doctor places one of the two defibrillator paddles on top of the wound dressing. The paddles must be placed on the skin.
- Quotes
Detective Van Allen: You Reyes?
John Doggett: I'm Doggett. She's Reyes.
Monica Reyes: Detective Van Allen?
Detective Van Allen: That's right.
Monica Reyes: I appreciate your help on this.
Detective Van Allen: What help is that?
Monica Reyes: On this investigation.
Detective Van Allen: There isn't a lot to investigate. I mean, Victor Potts wasn't exactly one of the FBI's ten most wanted.
John Doggett: I think she means your insight into the way he died, Detective.
Detective Van Allen: Don't have any. But I'm sure you'd rather talk to somebody who actually gives a damn, right?
John Doggett: Hate to say it but, he probably sums up most peoples feelings.
- Crazy creditsIn the main title for the ninth season, a piece of paper flashes across the screen listing "FBI Contacts: Witnesses and Contributors."

For episodes #9.12-#9.19, the names came from contest entries.

I find myself at odds with the general reviewers once again, I really didn't enjoy the previous episode, this one however, I really did enjoy.
First off, the production values are off the scale, it's a fantastic looking episode, it looks and plays out like a high budget horror movie, it feels very well made and produced, the cinematography was great.
I really did enjoy the story itself, it was quite imaginative, I liked the visuals too, it was suitably gory and macabre, again I think it had a film like horror to it.
The acting impressed me throughout, I thought Gish was excellent once again.
Enjoyed, 8/10.
