• [last lines] 

  Gil Grissom : It's sad, isn't it, doc? Guys like us. Couple of middle-aged men who've allowed their work to consume their lives. The only time we ever touch other people is when we're wearing our latex gloves. We wake up one day and realize that, for fifty years, we haven't really lived at all. But then, all of a sudden, we get a second chance. Somebody young and beautiful shows up. Somebody we could care about. She offers us a new life with her, but we have a big decision to make, right? Because we have to risk everything we've worked for in order to have her. I couldn't do it, but you did. You risked it all, and she showed you a wonderful life, didn't she? But then she took it away and gave it to somebody else, and you were lost. So you took her life. You killed them both, and now you have nothing.

  Dr. Vincent Lurie : I'm still here.

  Gil Grissom : Are you?

• Greg Sanders : [spoken while Grissom is looking under a microscope]  That's the hair from the spare bedroom.

  Gil Grissom : There's an oily film on the surface of the hair.

  Greg Sanders : Propylene glycol. Active ingredient in Rogaine, for male pattern baldness. Personally, I don't use the stuff, but my grandfather Papa Olaf - he was Bruce Willis at age sixteen. Lucky for me, baldness comes from the mother's side, so I'm safe...

  Gil Grissom : [interrupting]  Greg, please, I'm very tired.

  Greg Sanders : Well, maybe the guy we're looking for is going bald... or trying not to. According to Papa Olaf, a lot of guys who use Rogaine also use Propecia, kind of like a cocktail. I ran the hair through MassSpec. I got four peaks - ethyl alcohol, propylene glycol, minoxidil, and finasteride.

  Gil Grissom : Finasteride, the chemical name for Propecia.

  Greg Sanders : But wait, there's more, and it's a family secret. Sexual. Happens in less than two percent of users.

  [whispering] 

  Greg Sanders : Papa Olaf was one of those people that needed hydraulics.

  Catherine Willows : Have you eaten?

  Gil Grissom : What have you brought?

  Catherine Willows : I'll see what's in the fridge

  [Moves to kitchen] 

  Gil Grissom : We'll have to replace that!
