• [upon finding an insect on the victim's clothes] 

  Gil Grissom : It's a carpet beetle. It shouldn't be here.

  Catherine Willows : The vic seem more like a hardwood floors kind of guy to you?

  Gil Grissom : Carpet beetles are usually the last to arrive at a corpse, when only found on a body when its near becoming being a skeleton. This guy is still fresh.

  [looks up at skeleton hanging from tree, sees other insects on it] 

  Gil Grissom : David! Get this body out of here right now! We've got cross-contamination!

• Gil Grissom : So, take some photos of the experiment for the D.A. and then, uh, get rid of that stuff.

  Sara Sidle : That meat? The raw meat? Me?

  Gil Grissom : Yeah.

  Sara Sidle : How many meals have we shared together?

  Gil Grissom : I don't know.

  Sara Sidle : Take a guess. Over a year working together.

  Gil Grissom : ...Thirty?

  Sara Sidle : I'm a vegetarian, everyone here knows I'm a vegetarian. I haven't eaten meat since we stayed up that night with that dead pig. It pains me to see ground beef. Forget about cleaning it up.

  Gil Grissom : Okay... have Nick do it.
