Grissom: Warrick. Oh god! Stay with me! Warrick, it’s Grissom. Warrick, come on. Come on, Warrick. Please. Please. Come on, Warrick. You got to fight. I need you to fight. Fight for me, okay? No. No, come on. No!
Ecklie: How do you want to handle this?
Grissom: I want us to do this, Conrad.
Sara: I caught the first flight out.
Grissom: He didn’t want to go, Sara.
Sara: Tell me.
Grissom: I was holding him. God, I could feel his life. I guess I felt if I could hold him tight enough he’d be okay.
Sara: You know there is nowhere in the world that he rather would have been at the end. He loved you.
Grissom: Yeah, I loved him.
Catherine: It's so good we could all be together.
Greg: I'm glad you’re here.
Nick: Warrick, was right about Gedda and he was right about the department. Let’s finish this for him.
Brass: You know the last thing I told him was? ‘I hope you know how lucky you are.’ Some luck, huh?
Sara: Warrick has a son. Did you know?
Warrick: I’ve screwed up and when I have there has always been one man to set me straight. I’ve learned a lot from him. How to be fair, how to forgive, how to be inspired, how to inspire others. If I could have picked my own father I’d have picked him.
Grissom: Theres no way that McKeen heard those shots so why did he say he did? He also implied that he saw Pritchett running away from Warrick’s car. First witness at the scene is the first suspect.
McKeen: Okay, you want to know why I did it? Warrick had a big mouth. And I had to shut it. I tried to warn him. But he was just to stupid to listen. You know when I shot him he had a smile on his face. I told him he could keep his job. I didn’t have the heart to fire him.
Nick: Shut up.
McKeen: You were his friend. What kind of friend are you?! Shut me, you son of a bitch!
Brass: What was that shot?
Nick: A miss.
Brass: Jeffrey McKeen, you are under arrest for the murder of Warrick Brown.
Grissom: As crime scene investigators we meet people on the worst day of their lives. They’ve just lost a family member, somebody they love, often in a horrible way. A piece of their heart is gone and will never be replaced. The phrase we’re trained to offer them, ‘I’m sorry for your loss,’ as we know now, doesn’t offer much.
Warrick Brown was a young boy when his parents passed away, much too young to learn that life can be so tragically short. But I think that it taught him how precious life is and so he lived his life to the fullest each day as if it was his last day.
I was with Warrick on his last day. All the qualities that defined him - his tenaciousness, his deep sense of loyalty, his courage to risk his life for what he knew was right - all those traits were with him on his last day. Just before he died we were all having breakfast together. Our team. His friends. His family. And Warrick was -- he was… I’m going to miss him so much.

Some thoughts:
- I love an episode designed to make me cry. I am such a masochist.
- I loved seeing the team back together, except well, it wasn’t the whole team, was it? =( I am very glad Jorja Fox came back for this because it would have felt very strange for Sara not to return.
- I love you Sara/Jorja Fox, I do, but you did not look good. The outfit, the fluffy hair, and you looked so worn out. What have you been up to since CSI?
- Of course, I throughly enjoyed Grissom and Sara’s reunion. She completely understood how much Warrick meant to him. And I'm glad that Warrick and Grissom's relationship was at the forefront of this episode.
- But they didn't forget Greg, Nick, and Catherine. They all had good their little moments throughout the episode to show just how hard it was on all of them. But my favorite reaction, aside from Grissom of course, was Catherine's as she walked to the crime scene.
- But more than that, we saw a glimpse of how *everyone* at the lab was handling it, including many shots of Archie, Hodges, Wendy and Mandy.
- Yeah, the son reveal was kind of lame. It was a very blatant 'Warrick may be dead but he lives on in his son!'
- I loved the little moments between Sara and Greg. As much as I ship Grissom/Sara, I always felt something between Sara and Greg. Okay, more on the Greg side, but you know.
- I will take that picture on Warrick's room as a sign from the writers on how they wish us to ship on this show (based on who is next to who). Take note: Nick/Greg, Catherine/Warrick, Grissom/Sara.
- As for the funeral scene... ::cries: WP did a fabulous job.
