Warrick sits in the parking lot of Gedda's strip club looking for evidence. He ends up inside the club with three bottles of pricey champagne and a stripper named Candy on his lap, only to be found by Grissom. He's sent home once again, but Warrick returns and follows Candy. He meets up with her at a bar, and they go a hotel. He's high as a kite, hallucinating, and they have sex. Soon Warrick goes back to the strip club, leaving an empty bed behind. When he arrives, he's horrified to see that Candy's been murdered, and her dead body is in the parking lot, in his own car. |

==Trivia== |
|
| − |
*Goof: The garbage truck company closed in 1983. However, Warrick pulls out a paper with a headline of President Reagan's "Tear down this wall" speech, which occurred in 1987. |
|
| − |
*Warrick drives a newer model (05 and up) Ford Mustang. |
|
| − |
*Goof: Warrick is looking at the photographs of the garbage truck drivers bruised arms. He takes a Modafinil (whilst Nick is watching from outside the room). He tries to pop the lid back onto the bottle but as he puts it down to pick up the water bottle the lid flips off again. In the next camera angle as Warrick is still drinking from the bottle of water, Nick enters the office and the lid is firmly back on the pill bottle. |
|
| − |
*It's established in the episode Goodbye and Good Luck (8x07) that Warrick is taking the drug Zolpidem to help him sleep, and in this episode it is shown that he is also taking the drug Modafinil which is to help him stay alert. |
|
| − |
*In that same sequence towards the end of the episode, Friedkin used quick flash-forward cuts of yet-to-be-seen moments to help portray Warrick's jumbled state of mind. Friekdin usd the same technique in The Exorcist. |
|
| − |
*Goof: When Warrick and Grissom are talking about the garbage trucks hydraulics' being broken; the flash back shows the cylinder over working and breaking squirting a clear liquid from it. Hydraulic fluid is a red-yellow color and after it has been used it turns to a red-brown hue. |
|
| − |
*When Greg is in the break room he is holding a Coca-Cola can (even with his hand covering the majority of the label). CSI normally use generic items on the set. |
|
| − |
*The club Warrick went with the dancer had the same architectural plan and fireplace as the woman's' room did in the Season 7 episode "Monster in the Box." |
|
| − |
*Goof: At the very beginning, the shot from above shows the driver holding the wheel with one hand, the other on a beer. Yet when the shot is from the backseat, he has both hands on the wheel and the beer is gone. |
|
| − |
*Goof: When Brass interrogates the vic's mother for the second time he shows her a photo of BB from his police academy graduation (brown background) from 1975. Take a closer look at it when it is lying on the table and later on when Brass picks it up, it is a different picture. This is the latest photo of BB (blue background). |
|
| − |
*The Pigalle Place Strip Club is actually a Elks Club in San Fernado, California. The CSI decorating crew put the neon signs and marquee on the building to make it look like a strip club. |
|
| − |
*Portions of the chase sequence in the teaser were shot in Santa Clarita, California, during the devastating October 2007 wildfires. If you look closely, you can see the smoke and embers in the sky. |
|
| − |
*Wallace Langham (David Hodges), although part of the opening credits, did not appear in this episode. |
|
| − |
*When Gary Dourdan was asked what it was like to work with director William Friedkin, he said it was the most amazing experience he's ever had. Dourdan said, "I could go home from a day of work and feel like I did something. The last couple years have been a bit slow. When all we do is walk in and say two lines about hair follicles..." |
|
| − |
*This was the first time Academy Award-winner William Friedkin had directed a tv episode and did it as a favor to William Peterson. The two had previously worked together in the 1985 film, "To Live and Die in L.A." |

==Quotes== |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Hey, Gris, I'm sorry I'm late. I had some business to take care of. |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': This is your business. You were first up. That means you're supposed to be here first. |
|
| − |
---- |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': I have a good feeling he works for Gedda. |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': Yeah, but we don't work off feelings, do we? |
|
| − |
---- |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': (shouts) McKeen! |
|
| − |
*(Undersherrif McKeen turns and sees Warrick headed his way.) |
|
| − |
*'''Undersherrif McKeen''': (to the two officers) Excuse me a moment. (The two officers leave as Warrick arrives.) |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Judge denied me the warrant. |
|
| − |
*'''Unsherrif McKeen''': What do you want me to do? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Get me the warrant. Lou Gedda is getting away with murder. |
|
| − |
*'''Undersheriff McKeen''': All right, say that I get you the warrant. What are you looking for, something that made armpit bruises? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': The barber's chair in Gedda's office made the armpit bruises. |
|
| − |
*'''Undersheriff McKeen''': I'm agreeing with the judge. (behind Warrick he sees Grissom talking with an officer) Grissom! |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''' (to the officer): Okay. (the officer leaves and Grissom walks over to Warrick and McKeen) |
|
| − |
*'''Undersheriff McKeen''': You need to save your CSI here. What he has is circumstantial based off of weird bruises and a barber chair. Brown needs to get better evidence and leave the rest in our hands. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': I'm sorry, leave what in your hands... Gedda's money? (McKeen glares at him, then turns and leaves. Warrick starts to leave, but Grissom grabs his arm) |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': Listen to me. Putting Gedda in jail is not gonna solve your problems. You just got the rest of the night off. |
|
| − |
---- |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': Pay the bill and let's go. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': How'd you know I was here? |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': You've been here twice already today. We're leaving. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Come on, Gris, why don't you sit down and have a drink with us? |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': I'm on the clock. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': So am I. |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': So you want to get fired. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': No, I want to let them know I'm here. I figured I'd order a couple bottles and not pay for it and see what happens. |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': You think he's that stupid? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': It's worth a try. (the waitress slides her tray with the bill over to him) |
|
| − |
*'''Waitress''': Here you go, sir. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Thank you. (he looks at the bill: 'Compliments of the house') |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''' (dryly): Well, now you gotta pay for it, 'cause we're not allowed to accept gifts. |
|
| − |
---- |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Hey, Gris, listen. About me being late ... |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': You have a cell phone paid for by the department. You call, you say you're running late. What's going on with you? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': I don't know. This, uh ... this whole divorce has taken the wind out of my sails. You know, I used to have the team to distract me from all this, but even that's changed with Sara being gone. I feel kind of disconnected. |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': You've got your work. Don't screw that up. |
|
| − |
---- |
|
| − |
*'''Greg''': Regal Sanitation was owned by Anthony Pezzulo. I'm studying mob history for a book I'm writing. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Pezzulo? Wasn't he the mob boss who owned the Starfly? |
|
| − |
*'''Greg''': They called Pezzulo "Whacko," not so much for his wacky personality as for his love for whacking guys. |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': Until he himself got whacked at the Wisconsin Dells in 1983. Every mob-owned business in Vegas shut down when Pezzulo died. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': These scumbags like roaches. Just when you think they're gone, they pop back up again. |
|
| − |
---- |
|
| − |
*'''Brass''': The judge doesn't think the bruises are enough probable cause to issue a warrant. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': What judge? |
|
| − |
*'''Brass''': Greene. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': When I was running bets for Judge Cohen, she was in on the action. |
|
| − |
*'''Brass''': I have no comment. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': You know, these club owners... they pay a lot of taxes; they fund campaigns; they hand out free drinks, all in exchange for protection. I mean, what can I do? |
|
| − |
*'''Brass''': Go to the undersheriff, see if he can use his influence. But I doubt it. |
|
| − |
---- |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': I ran Pigalle's address to find out if there are any more crimes linked to it over the years. I found hundreds: 416s, 413s, 411s ... the list goes on. |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': Any consistent suspects? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Only thing consistent is that the victims refused to file charges and the witnesses refused to give statements. And it's funny enough the cops lost interest in pursuing it. |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': What are you saying? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': I'm saying it looks like Gedda is running an old school extortion racket, and you can't do that without having cops on the payroll. |
|
| − |
---- |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': All right. Catherine, you and I got the bodies. Greg, since Warrick's MIA, you have a choice: the truck or the trail. |
|
| − |
*'''Greg''': I'll go for the fresh air. (takes his kit and heads out.) |
|
| − |
*'''Catherine''': Do I get a choice, too? Because, if you don't mind, I'm going to take the garbage man. |
|
| − |
*'''Grissom''': Be my guest. |
|
| − |
*'''Catherine''': Good luck. |
|
| − |
---- |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''' [to Candy]: You ever see a barber's chair in Gedda's office? |
|
| − |
*'''Candy''': No, but I heard about one. It's supposed to be Al Capone's. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Al Capone. |
|
| − |
*'''Candy''': Yeah, but that has to be a rumor. Mob guy with Al Capone's chair...it's so cliché. Gedda's like the last wise guy left in Vegas. Guess that's his way of keeping his culture alive. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Scumbags like him don't have culture. |
|
| − |
*'''Candy''': Scumbags like him started Vegas. None of these lights would be here if it wasn't for them. |

---- |
|

*[While at the strip club] |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': This place has always been bad news. |
|
| − |
*'''Brass''': My guys are in here at least twice a week. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Yet there's always a line. |
|
| − |
*'''Brass''': Never underestimate the power of the ass. |
|
| − |
---- |
|
| − |
*'''Nick''': Hey, what are those? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': What? |
|
| − |
*'''Nick''': Those pills? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Oh, they're supposed to keep me alert. |
|
| − |
*'''Nick''': Really? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Yeah. |
|
| − |
*'''Nick''': How long you been taking those? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': I don't know, for a couple months. |
|
| − |
*'''Nick''': Aren't you still taking those sleeping pills, too? |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': What's it to you? |
|
| − |
*'''Nick''' (walks over to him): So now ... you're taking uppers and downers. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Gimme a break, man. |
|
| − |
*'''Nick''': No, you need to give yourself a break, Warrick. |
|
| − |
*'''Warrick''': Hey, let it go, bro. |
|
| − |
*'''Nick''': No. No, I'm not going to let it go. (opens the pill bottle and throws the pills away. He drops the pill bottle. Warrick stands up and gets into Nick’s face.) You need to take a look at yourself, Warrick. And I care because I'm your friend. (Warrick glares at Nick. Nick stares back. After a moment, Warrick nods and chuckles softly. He pats Nick’s arm.) All right? |
|

*'''Warrick''': Yeah. |

Cockroaches is the ninth episode of the eighth season of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.
Synopsis
While the team investigates a murder related to an underground mafia, Warrick becomes increasingly unhinged as the result of some personal issues and eventually finds himself in a very dangerous position.
Plot
The team arrives one man short when they cover the aftermath of a garbage truck run amuck in Vegas. Warrick is late, popping pills and on the phone with an irate Tina, who he's divorcing. Once he arrives, he joins in to cover a truck that dumped a trail of trash for miles. When the driver ran from police, he was struck and killed by a car. Inside the truck was the dead body of Jason Crews, a 27-year-old club owner.
His mother, Kate, was the wife of a famous mob man, Anthony Pezzulo, but she changed her identity when her husband was whacked 23 years before. She offloaded her husband's garbage truck business to Lou Gedda back then, and told Lou to forget that she and her son Jason ever existed.
Lou says he knew Jason and loved the kid. But a Hollywood manager friend of Jason's tells Warrick that Gedda beat him up at his club. Jason called out Gedda and vowed never to bring talent back to his strip club. Warrick believes Gedda's got cops on his payroll, and he shows up to check out the club. Gedda's not too happy to see him nosing around. Warrick does everything he can to get a warrant for Gedda's property, but the judge denies it. Believing that the judge and other officials are protecting Gedda for payoffs, Warrick insults Undersherriff McKeen. Grissom sends him home.
Warrick sits in the parking lot of Gedda's strip club looking for evidence. He ends up inside the club with three bottles of pricey champagne and a stripper named Candy on his lap, only to be found by Grissom. He's sent home once again, but Warrick returns and follows Candy. He meets up with her at a bar, and they go a hotel. He's high as a kite, hallucinating, and they have sex. Soon Warrick goes back to the strip club, leaving an empty bed behind. When he arrives, he's horrified to see that Candy's been murdered, and her dead body is in the parking lot, in his own car.
