Season 2 Episode 16

Remember when I talked about how the CSI franchise could continue if this show were to end? Well, I’m sorry if I’m being a bummer of a person. But there is probably no way that this show could avoid cancellation unless CBS makes a dumb choice regarding it and they have too high ratings and thus too high a standard to keep something as low rated as this show. But back to the point I was making before: there are ways for the franchise to continue. One of them that I just now thought of would involve a made for TV movie being made that could serve as a potential pilot to a new series. That could work, even as just a one-off movie. Meanwhile, I’m still wondering if movie theatres will ever show stuff like a CSI movie in the future. They could even go R if they wanted to.

Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. We begin with a warped church person. That happens a lot. But I do wonder why we never see other religions being warped as much. It tends to only be Christianity. Well, that and Islam, but they always seem to defend Islam and never Christianity. Anyhoo, a person winds up dead and everyone receives notifications about it at the crime lab though a social media site. They investigate the crime and other crime pictures are sent as well.

The second part brings us the focus of today’s episode: QR (Quick Response) code- A pattern of black and white squares that can be scanned by the camera of a smartphone to download information. They look up more information about the case. Someone makes a picture of someone in hell taken at their visitation. Meanwhile, they look up information of someone who did sex selfies. These murders have to do with the five deadly sins of social media: hate speech, porn, violence, drugs, and trolling.

The third part has more of the possible stalker person that I forgot to mention earlier. Elijah’s dad goes to confront her and he winds up passing out. Did she cause this? Her name is Nina and Elijah confronts her and gives her a restraining order. But she’s still able to sneak back into the hospital with a wig and Elijah knows this. We might see her again in the last episode. Meanwhile, with the case, it appears that one of the tech people that they talked to earlier is behind the killings. She finds the trolling person from earlier and ties him up. But the team is able to find them and stop her. She ends up killing herself, being the last victim of her own crimes. They decide to take her account down so as to not inspire anyone else to commit murders like hers.

On the next CSI: Cyber, a group of women commit crimes. I’ve already written about that episode and have just the last episode this season (possibly ever) and the one that aired on Valentine’s Day left to write. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
