CSI: NY/Tear Jerker


Examples of Tear Jerkers in CSI: NY include:

  • Adam talking to the young boy with OCD who killed his dad.
  • Angell's death and Flack's reaction to it.
  • The entire episode "Indelible". It was a Sept.11th 10th anniversary tribute, which should clue you in.
  • The pilot, 'Blink', when Mac goes to Ground Zero.
  • "Run Silent Run Deep", the scene where Danny breaks down in Mac's arms after his brother is beaten for wearing a wire.
  • "Flash Pop", the lab techs' tribute/vigil for their colleague who was murdered at the beginning of the episode.
  • Every bit of Mac's time with Claire in "Near Death". Just try watching that without a box of kleenex.
  • The season 5 finale "Pay Up" when Detective Jessica Angell was shot and killed. First of all, she's on the phone with her boyfriend, Detective Don Flack, when the bad guys drive a truck into the diner she's in. His panic makes you tear up. Then, later on in the episode, we find out that she died through Flack's quiet, stressed, "She's gone..." before he breaks down. The fact that Flack was the last person many fans expected to see cry on the show makes it worse. Flack's expression through the rest of the episode, especially when he gives her police badge to her former-cop father, is heartbreaking.
    • The show hasn't been the same since, and more's the pity for that.
