Visible crew/equipment: When Delafont tells Mac, "None of it would have happened if he delivered what he promised," Jo figures out the connection between the cases. It then cuts to Jo with the Post-its, and at the start of the following wide shot, as she turns to walk over to the computer screen with suspects, a red T-mark is visible on the floor. It becomes visible again in a following shot. (00:35:30)
Don Flack: I thought tonight was your night off.

Trivia: Carmine Giovinazzo is the first series regular to appear on all three "CSI" series. He made a guest appearance in the Vegas "CSI" third season episode "Revenge is Best Served Cold," his character was introduced in the Miami cross-over episode "MIA/NYC Nonstop," and is a series regular on NY. He has since been followed by Gary Sinise (Mac).
Question: Why in season 9 do so many of the episodes follow many of the characters on their days off?
Chosen answer: Probably to broaden the scope of the show's plot and give the audience a chance to see the characters in a different setting, People act differently at home from the way they do at their workplace. By the ninth season, the characters would have become overly familiar and predictable. It gives the writers a chance to do something different with them.
