Jorja Fox: "Sara has a bit of a meltdown. It
is not the first time in the five years that
the character is in professional and
personal trouble. Sara is very passionate
and has a bit of a temper and you are going
to see all that tonight and more." (February

Guest actress Natasha Alam: "It was a blast
to play that part. I had to lay in a pool of
'blood' made of corn syrup and paint. [It
was] a little cold and uncomfortable, but
exhausting, as when the 'blood' gets dry it
itches and shrinks, causing the skin to
pool, but you have to wear it for a while.
We were jumping from scenes before I was
covered in blood to scenes [set after that]
many times, which meant I had to take a
shower and do the make-up and hair all over
again several times a day. [...] I still
wouldn't trade this experience for
anything." (February 04, 2005 - CSI Files)
