    This episode was an awesome finale to an awesome show. This series was my favorite of the CSI family of dramas. Well plotted, acted and delivered. The creative minds always kept the plots in line with real-life issues yet kept me guessing on who done it. It is greatly missed in my weekly TV viewing line-up. It's also very creepy that in a little more than a year later life imitates art and we witness the real life story in Ferguson, Missouri. Bravo to the cast of CSI New York. It's Curious to me the network could not find one more sponsor to keep this show running. Just how many viewers do you need to keep a series running? Perhaps it's not too late for another network to pick it up...? Thanks for the many years of entertainment.

      The opening chase scene is clearly filmed in Los Angeles, California. A dead giveaway is the fact that when the suspects run across the street, a theater in the background says "Los Angeles" atop its marquee.

      Mac Taylor: This is not how I imagined it would happen. I-I don't know if it's how you imagined it would happen, or if you even imagined it happening at all.

      Christine Whitney: Mac, I'm not sure what you're saying. L-Let's go in and have a glass of wine.- I'll make a fire...

      Mac Taylor: No. No, no, no, stay here. I don't want to wait another minute. I don't have a ring. Or a speech. I-I wasn't even able to stop and pick up a cheap bottle of champagne. I never thought I'd feel like this again. You're everything that's *good* in my life. We've been through so much together. I need you, Christine, I want you and I-I can't imagine my life without you. I don't want to- I just want to spend the rest of my life with you by my side.

      [kneels]

      Christine Whitney: Oh.

      Mac Taylor: Christine, will you marry me?

      Christine Whitney: Yes. Of course I will. Oh. This is *exactly* how I imagined it.
