Victim #2 was killed by the chef who created an Exotic Cuisine Experience. He recognized the woman as someone who sued him when he was working in San Francisco. They met up later at her apartment. He blindfolded her, then fed her a live octopus.
At episode's end, Danny brings in an array of specialty 'dishes' for the team to try. Only Lindsay takes a bite, which was a deep fried spider. Danny has to pay Mac since they bet on whether or not Lindsay would eat. She is quick to notice. After everyone else has gone back to Mac's office for pizza, Lindsay and Danny share a table and continue eating.
This show has returned to primetime after several weeks of hiatus. While forensic evidence is the focal point, l have enjoyed seeing the lives of the characters unfold. After Adien Burns (Vanessa Ferlito) was fired for evidence-tampering, it was a little unclear as to how much things would change in regards to the team.
However, Lindsay Monroe has proven herself to be a welcome addition. Not only can she hold her own as a detective, she is adept at handling edgy Messer. When they first met, she caught his wisecrack and let loose one of her own ("Zoo York"). Ever since then, they have formed a close bond. She taught him that coworkers had lives outside of work. ("Stuck on You"). Now, she has dared to take on his culinary challenge. Can this be the beginning of a new office romance?

I always knew there was a reason I don't eat out on the Upper East Side! I enjoy C.S.I. NY, but missed a part of this episode. Nice review! (But stay away from living foodstuffs, please.)
