CSI: Miami
"Horatio Caine" (David
Caruso)
An arson and explosives
expert, Horatio Caine left
New York and the bomb squad to take over the
CSI labs after Megan Donner stepped down.
He was haunted for years by the death of his brother,
Raymond, a Miami Dade narcotics officer who was abusing crystal meth
at the time of his murder.
Horatio has worked hard to keep his feelings for Ray’s widow,
Detective Yelina Salas, in check.
At the end of Season Three, Horatio’s suspicions that Raymond
may indeed be alive are confirmed.
Horatio reunites Ray with Yelina and their son, then sends
them off to South America to escape revenge.
Without a family or intimate relationship of his own, Horatio
remains a tireless crusader for what he views as “his city,”
spending off hours poring over scientific articles to better
understand the criminal mind.
As a three-dimensional thinker, Horatio is more comfortable
on a crime scene than in the lab, always reminding himself that the
cases aren’t about him, but about the victims.
His professional mantra is “We never close.”
Season
Four was “business as usual” for Horatio, after saving his brother’s
life and helping Ray obtain safe passage to Brazil at the end of Season
Three. However, when Eric
Delko’s sister, Marisol, enters his life in Season Four, Horatio finds
love and fulfillment which is soon swept away when Marisol is gunned
down at season’s end – by a drug lord who is extradited to
Brazil.
Season Five opens with Horatio in Rio De Janeiro, seeking
justice for his wife’s killer and a sense of closure for himself.
Reunited with family members there, Horatio becomes more deeply
involved in the Brazilian drug lord’s game when Ray Jr. becomes a “mule”
for the thug’s international heroin smuggling operation.
