“I don’t know if I can do this anymore,” she says, in what became a theme for the episode. Let’s not bother ourselves with the fact that it’s only been mere hours since that fate stared her in the face. Natalia’s having a tough time of it, and she confides to Wolfe that she keeps reliving being trapped in the car. Yeah, I could go right back to work after that.Horatio’s not the only one dealing with the fallout of these events. He can’t, of course, because Jack Toller is still out there. He hallucinates again, seeing his wife, knowing that the only thing he has to do to be with her again is to stop trying too hard. He’s in wilting pain, anguish creasing his face. Just after bagging North, Horatio’s alone in his car.
Caruso again demonstrates his control over the Horatio character in the quiet moments. Yes, it’s a cop on a network police show so the depth is not always called upon, but, within that framework, you can do a lot of good work. “We meet again, Randy,” Horatio purrs, “and it’s payback time.” Cue The Who’s “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and Roger Daltry’s primal “Yeeeahhh!” Season 10 is on!įor those of y’all who dog CSI: Miami because of Caruso, I still don’t get it. They get Randy’s son to play decoy on a beach and voila! The team captures Randy. North.ĭelko to the rescue!By now, the entire team knows about the trauma of Natalia and Horatio and are on board: Eric Delko (Adam Rodriguez), Ryan Wolfe (Jonathan Togo), Frank Tripp (Rex Linn), Walter Simmons (Omar Benson Miller), and Calleigh Duquesne (Emily Proctor, fresh from the real-world pregnancy that kept her in the lab all last season, usually behind something solid). He’s a bulldog when he sets his mind on a culprit. This is Horatio Caine we’re talking about. He’s going to have to let the rest of his team pick up the slack right?” Nope. Horatio’s been shot through-and-through on his left side. Now, I’m all for macho cops doing macho things, but, at the time, I was thinking “Oh, come on now. No sooner do they arrive at the ER than they are both up and raring to go after Randy North (Ethan Embry) and the main baddie for this episode, Jack Toller (Callum Keith Rennie). He succeeds, naturally, and the two of them are whisked away to the ER, Horatio muttering Marisol’s name over and over again. With no other option, Caine does what he’s supposed to do: he dives in and tries to save Natalia. Am I watching Inception or CSI: Miami? Doesn’t matter when the scene works. Then it’s Natalia’s face, dripping wet, then back to Marisol’s. “You have to go back,” Marisol tells him. The only problem is that Marisol was murdered six years ago and this is a hallucination, something Horatio realizes as his shirt becomes bloody at the exact place in his side where the scumbag, Randy North, shot him. In any other scenario, this would be a nice, touching scene for a character-Horatio-who doesn’t always get screen time devoted to his personal life. “Let’s not waste another second.” They hold hands. He’s at a nice, outdoor restaurant, with his beautiful wife, Marisol (Alana de la Garza). It’s also how season 10 begins, but with one crucial difference: Horatio’s suddenly not on the pier. The person on the pier is none other than Lieutenant Horatio Caine, played with great relish by David Caruso. That, my friends, is how season 9 of CSI: Miami ended for Natalia Boa Vista (Eva La Rue).
The only other person who knows where you are has been shot up on the pier by the scumbag who forced you into the trunk at gunpoint.Īnd the water keeps filling up the car. Think about it: you know you can’t get out, you feel the water seeping into the space, you don’t have any cell phone coverage and, even if you did, no one could get to you in time. Isn’t she dead?In the pantheon of deaths, being locked in the trunk of a car and then having said car drive off a pier has got to rank somewhere in the top 25.
