The introductions of Taylor's staff are brief and forgettable. The New York CSI team pieces together the facts of the most recent murders. A bloody fingerprint in Miami points Caine and Taylor to a convict, a rooftop chase and a narrow escape for their new prime suspect. These are uncannily similar to the Miami slayings. While the CSI counterparts get acquainted, two more murders take place in New York. At first they refrain from joining forces, but once they establish through chit-chat their mutual admiration for the death penalty and its liberal enforcement, the two are inseparable. (Who says these things only happen in films!) In this pre-pilot, Taylor and Caine discover they are searching for the same killer. The scene of Caine and Taylor's meeting features a moment of lighting genius in which Caine stands in a beam of warm amber sunlight while Taylor's key matches the cool blue ambiance of his native New York atmosphere. Enter Gary Sinise as Detective Mac Taylor. Caine's lead seems to dead-end when he arrives at another crime scene and discovers his suspect was murdered two days prior to the Miami crime he is investigating. Just prior to its season finale, CSI Miami sends Horatio Caine to the Big Apple in search of a killer. Having watched my share of NYPD Blue some years back, it was strange seeing David Caruso in a crime drama set in New York without Dennis Franz at his side.
