- Sara Sidle: [to the new CSI, Ronnie] You know what, that question, I will answer. We're not here to protect anyone, Ronnie, not even the cops. We're here to figure out what happened. If you can't do that, you should get a different job.
- Ronnie Lake: When I graduated, I got offers from both the labs in New York and Miami. Know why I picked Vegas?
- Sara Sidle: I know that you have nine questions left.
- Ronnie Lake: Crime rate's growing faster here.
- Sara Sidle: You know, I did read that if every bee on earth died, the human race would follow four years later.
- Gil Grissom: There's no hard evidence to support that, though.
- Sara Sidle: Oh.
- Gil Grissom: But the world will end. Someday.
- Gil Grissom: [When CSU discovers the chat logs on the computer that Amy used] What would you do if you found this on Lindsey's computer?
- Catherine Willows: Ground her for life. Take the laptop.
- Gil Grissom: Lock her in the attic, maybe?
- Catherine Willows: Well, you push kids, they push back. Things can get out of hand pretty quick.
- Ronnie Lake: Do you ever wonder why ants don't crawl up the nose and eat the brain? I would. Protein.
- Sara Sidle: Ants are scavengers. They tend to stay on the surface.
- Ronnie Lake: Do ants think dead skin tastes better than brains?
- Sara Sidle: Well, they will go for brains late in decomp.
- Ronnie Lake: Do ants have tastebuds?
- Sara Sidle: Ronnie, I'm gonna have to limit you to 20 questions per case.
- Ronnie Lake: Really?
- Sara Sidle: Nineteen.
- Warrick Brown: You know, if I had to gauge it by his apartment, I'd say that Alistair Rhodes is a regular guy.
- Nick Stokes: Yeah, I'm sure that's what he wants everybody to think, too.
- Rev. Rhodes: My partner is the Lord.
- Captain Jim Brass: Well I'm sure it's not His DNA on those sheets.
- Rev. Rhodes: Mr. Grissom, do you believe in a separate, living evil?
- Gil Grissom: You're primitive man on the savannah. You see something move out of the corner of your eye. You assume it's a hyena. You run, you live. If you assume it's the wind and you're wrong, you die. We have the genes of the ones who ran. We're genetically hard-wired to believe living forces that we cannot see.
- Rev. Rhodes: The Devil's sliest trick is making us believe he isn't real, but call his name loud and long enough,
- [knocks on the table four times]
- Rev. Rhodes: guess who comes knocking on your door?
- Jim Brass: Usually guys like you.
- Catherine Willows: [to Amy] Staff tells me that you've already gone through the SAE kit.
- Amy Macalino: They tell you I'm all banged up inside?
- Catherine Willows: Not in those words.
- Catherine Willows: [to Amy] I've got a daughter. She's almost your age.
- Amy Macalino: [coldly] Maybe we should hang out.
- Captain Jim Brass: Video 1-2-5.
- Reverend's Lawyer: I advise the reverend to document his rituals for situations just like this. He performed a religious service, with the full consent of the parents, then he left the motel room.
- Captain Jim Brass: If you think we're gonna fall for that you have a lot more faith than I thought.
