Synopsis:Continuing their hunt for the miniature crime scene killer, the CSIs track down another of Ernie Dell's foster children, Trevor Dell, but find him dead in his apartment. When Grissom discovers a miniature doll dressed like Trevor, he suspects the miniature killer has beat them to Trevor.
Warrick looks at Trevor's computer and determines he's been dead for twelve days based on his instant messaging activity, while Nick reports that Trevor died from a hemorrhage due to blunt force trauma to the head. Grissom recovers a partial fingerprint from the back of the miniature man, and Wendy runs it, surprising him by telling him the DNA of skin cells in the print are female. Grissom takes the small bracelet on the doll to a local miniature shop, and the owner tells him he made the bracelet for a woman named Natalie.Nick and Warrick determine Trevor was electrocuted when wires behind his sink connected with water in the sink, but what they at first think is an elaborate booby trap created by the miniature killer turns out to be nothing more than a red herring when they discover a neighbor is siphoning power from Trevor's apartment.

Trevor's death was an accident, but the CSIs have a lead: they question a Mrs. Wexler about Natalie Davis, who came to her as a foster child before going to Ernie.
She tells them Natalie was 'broken' and sends the CSIs to Natalie's father, Christopher, a ventriloquist who calls his doll by the same name as his dead daughter, Chloe-Natalie's younger sister. He tells the CSIs that Natalie was responsible for her sister's death: she pushed her from their treehouse and watched as her father cleaned up her sister's blood using bleach.The CSIs are horrified to learn Natalie has been working as a cleaning woman at their very offices, and Grissom makes a chilling discovery: a miniature car wreck in the desert, with a miniature of Sara under it.
The car license plate matches a wrecked car from a case Sara worked weeks ago. Grissom is stunned, and reveals to the team that Natalie is seeking revenge on him for Ernie Dell's death, taking from him the one person he loves like he did to her. The team finds an address for Natalie and storms her apartment. She runs, but Nick and Warrick catch up to her and arrest her. Grissom interrogates her, desperately trying to find out where she's taken Sara, but Natalie doesn't give him an answer.
Somewhere in the desert, as the rain pours down, Sara reaches out from under the crushed car.Analysis:CSI ends on a cliffhanger-but was it a cliffhanger of merit or necessity? With Jorja Fox's contract up for renegotiation-and, at the time of this writing, no deal has been struck-the writers were wise to capitalize on the 'will she or won't she return?' Question by putting Sara in a life or death situation. I'm not sure if it's possible in the age of the internet, but if they could keep secret whether or not they reach a deal, the eighth season opener will definitely be buzzed about.To read the full reviews, please click. Thanks for the fantastic review of what was a very interesting episode.Whilst I did enjoy the episode, I think that they had set themselves up for an uphill struggle to come up with a killer and plausible scenario to explain and complement this season long arc. And for me they succeeded in some aspects but not others.Natalie did make for a nice change as a young, female serial killer and truly not what I imagine any of us expected at the start of the mini killer storylines. But this is in part the problem with the scenario.
Natalie managed to execute these murders and, in most cases, accurately depict what these murder scenes would look like when she was done! Clearly she must be an incredibly organised, strong, pursuasive and calculated woman, none of these attributes seemed to match the murderer we were given.I admit that when I switched on to watch the finale I was mostly interested in seeing how they could possibly find this elusive killer and what explanation they could come up with to explain the behaviour and link the murders. This is why, whilst interesting, the finale was ultimately a let down for me. Rather than explaining the murders, or actually linking them we were left with a flashback of Ernie Dell reasoning that they must have deserved to die because Natalie wouldn't just hurt people.
Yet, as it was suggested that she murdered her younger sister we know that maybe she did just decide to kill them and there were no good reasons. Did she perhaps work for them all, as we know she liked to be paid in cash so there may have been no trace. The likelihood of this link not being noticed previously seems strange to me, even if at the time they thought they were looking for a man?They found Natalie because of a fingerprint left on a doll in the apartment of one of Ernie Dell's other foster children. Obviously this guy was simply a plot device to help uncover Natalie, I think it was a poor one and didn't seem to have been greatly thought out. Why would Natalie have been there, why on earth would she have left the doll when she makes all her miniature scenes in her own apartment?
I guess, as Grissom once said, it isn't for the CSI's to find out 'why', unfortunately viewers aren't quite as satisfied with simply finding out who and how!OK, I think I could go on about the failings of this episode for a long time.:lol: So, I'll try and stop soon.other than the actual case, the hotly anticipated moment of the finale was to be the outing of Grissom and Sara's relationship. This fell somewhat flat, and I agree that the lack of screentime for Sara in this episode did impact on the reveal. Well, that and Grissom's self centred approach to the situation (yeah, your girlfriend's gone missing, blaming yourself is fine, but what is it with these lead CSI's and their 'all about me' attitudes?) Whether Sara's disappearance is due to contract negotiations or simply used as a cliffhanger we'll have to wait and see, but either way they have certainly succeeded in creating anticipation for next season's opener.Unfortunately, once again I will expect to be disappointed, as seems to be the case with LV for me these days.
I expect the season to start with the mini killer case, and unless they do stray from their usual format then we will be 4 months into the future, Sara won't still be under a car in the rain and they will have to work very hard to come up with an episode that can plausibly and effectively explain this? When all is said and done, the 6 episodes in this arc was more than enough, it's time to move on and I really hope they don't dwell on this for another quarter of a season. Natalie did make for a nice change as a young, female serial killer and truly not what I imagine any of us expected at the start of the mini killer storylines.

Click to expand.That was my problem as well-lack of discernable motive.
And if she killed people she worked for, I'd expect a lot more dead bodies because presumably everyone has bleach. And like you, I think if she worked for them under the table, someone connected to each victim would have mentioned 'the cleaning lady' in a rundown of people who had access to the house and that might have caught the CSIs attention. As for why she killed, I think Ernie was deluded, unless her motives are going to be revealed in the premiere. They found Natalie because of a fingerprint left on a doll in the apartment of one of Ernie Dell's other foster children. Obviously this guy was simply a plot device to help uncover Natalie, I think it was a poor one and didn't seem to have been greatly thought out.

Csi Living Doll Cliffhanger 3
Grissom and Catherine visit Natalie's biological father, Christopher Davis, who is a ventriloquist whose stage name is 'The Great Rainone.' Davis tells them that when Natalie was six years old, she killed her younger sister, Chloe, by pushing her out of their treehouse. He had used bleach to clean Chloe's blood from the driveway, as Natalie watched placidly from the treehouse. Later on, Mr. Davis put her up for adoption because he could no longer deal with her psychosis.
Grissom and Catherine discover that the doll pictured in all of the miniatures is the bisque doll that the Great Rainone uses in his act, and that the doll is modeled after Chloe. They seek out the first foster family that took in Natalie after Mr. Davis gave her up.
The foster mother confirms the CSIs' suspicions about bleach being the trigger for Natalie's murderous tendencies, then says that she had Natalie put back in the foster care system after she tried to kill her foster sisters by pushing them from the tops of their bunk beds.Grissom returns to his office and is disturbed to find another miniature crime scene on his desk. The miniature shows a doll trapped underneath a battered and overturned red Ford Mustang on a nondescript stretch of desert road. The doll's hand, which is visible from under the car, is moving. Grissom lifts the model car and is horrified to discover that the doll under the car is made to resemble Sara.
He immediately calls Sara's phone and gets no response. Grissom later learns that Natalie had abducted Sara from the parking garage; Natalie Davis, a member of the CSI lab cleaning crew, is revealed as The Miniature Killer.Grissom tells the other CSIs about Natalie. After recalling that Sara was the lead CSI on a case involving a car accident six weeks before, the team pulls up case photos and discover that Natalie had been in the crowd observing the crime scene. Grissom remembers gently stroking Sara's arm at the crime scene and realizes that, unlike the other murders, which were triggered by bleach, this crime is personal. Feeling cornered, Grissom says that Natalie holds him personally responsible for taking Ernie Dell, the only person she ever truly loved, away from her, so she intends to do the same thing to him.
Catherine, Greg, Nick, and Warrick are shocked by the revelation of Sara and Grissom's relationship.Natalie is arrested. As Grissom questions her, she hallucinates that she slashes his throat. Grissom angrily demands to know where Sara is, but Natalie tunes him out as she plaintively recites lyrics from 'I've Got a Pain in My Sawdust,' a song the Great Rainone performs in his act.The episode closes with a shot of an overturned red Ford Mustang lying in a remote stretch of Nevada desert as it begins to rain.
Sara's hand reaches out from under the car and claws at the mud as puddles of rainwater begin to grow around the car.Cast Main Cast. as. as. as. as.
