Yes, they called her to see if she knew anyone, and since Grissom was lecturing at the Sorbonne for the semester, she didn't have anything better to do. @@ (I still hate her. Not as much as Riley, but I still hate her)
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I join you in the hate. I always thought her and Grissom were creepy too. She doesn't strike me as healthy-attachment girl. And he needs all the mental-health help he can get. Lady Heather-shaped help.
I didn't even notice she wasn't in this week's episode, but now that it's brought up, she didn't mention she was Mrs. Grissom, so she must not have been there. @@ indeed.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
she looks so happy now, I've warmed up to her. I think Grissom had the best chemistry with Lady Heather, tho.

I loved Lady Heather. I was sorry that Grissom was not smart enough to explore that.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
um, I think we are to understand they DID explore that.

The show barely treated her as more than a curiosity. Whereas I never got over the boss/subordinate squick with Grissom and Sara, which is somewhat ironic.
It's not an inherent problem for me, but she struck me as damaged goods with an authority problem looking for a daddy, and then just ew. The part where they supposedly FFed to equals just left me behind.

Completely unrelatedly: Does anyone who likes both The Mentalist and Psych think the former is a rip of the latter?
I read an article that I think more successfully posited The Mentalist as more similar to Monk than to Psych than any of the Psych/Mentalist comparisons I've seen.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I think of "The Mentalist" as more of a "House" ripoff than "Psych."

They've riffed on it a few times in promos for Psych. On the surface, I see the similarity - person with special observational skills uses those skills to see beyond the obvious to solve crimes. Only difference is that Jane admitted he was a fake, while Sean is still riding the wave. Oh, and Gus is a much better sidekick than Lisbbon. But maybe not Cho.
