CSI: Episode 8.15 "The Theory of Everything" Recap

BuddyTVDebbie · 05-01-2008, 01:00 PM

Tonight's CSI begins with a crazy woman at the police department dressed head-to-toe in aluminum foil, spewing her theory of time and space. She's actually more entertaining than a lot of string theorists that I know, and as an former physicist, I know plenty. She says, "The invasion is tonight." Apparently, she's a regular at the station, surfacing nearly every night to file random complaints.

Next some other officers examine a dead deer. It seems that a very drunk man (like, BAC-of-2.8-drunk) shot the deer with a crossbow. The police interrogate him, but he tries to make a break for. He runs out into the hallway, crashing through a window, and the officers follow him into the room where Foil Lady is. The man bumps into Foil Lady, just as a cop sprays him with pepper spray and shoots him with a stun gun. The only thing is, as soon as he does, the guy bursts into flames and dies. Foil Lady says, "Now do you believe me?" It's getting curiouser and curiouser.

What?!?! No Comment of the WILD Cameo by the Mythbusters!! (they were on the other side of the glass as the Yellow Pepper Spray test was finalized, showing it was the key ingredient to solving that mystery!!

I think the appearance was not that they were mere lab assistants, but it was the George Eads character who was obviously a Mythbusters fan (who else do CSIs have to look up to, but other scientists). He was "getting his geek on" by imagining the Mythbusters giving their stamp of approval to him solving this mystery.

Also, the other great casting of the episode: Foil-Lady was played by Chloe Webb who was Marg Helgenberger's co-star on China Beach!!

Doh!!! I LOVE Mythbusters, and I can't believe I missed their cameo. Seriously, I was concentrating so hard on the plot that I completely missed them!
