OBVIOUS PLOT HOLE!
In season 6, episode 4's "Bang Bang, Your Debt" Erik Delko starts
hallucinating that his dead colleague Tim Speedle is still alive.
Now here is the obvious plot hole and of course being CSI:Miami
well we must suspend disbelief.
Somehow Dan Cooper was able to get ahold of Speedle's credit card
after his death by taking the card from his old locker. Now here
is what is so implausible, the character of Tim Speedle was in
seasons 1 & 2 and then died at the end of the second season
and was buried on camera. So then we must assume that his
credit card would have been canceled and the account closed
for good by his bank. After all what good is any credit card
to a dead man? Speedle was single and had no dependents so
all the more reason that his credit account would have been
closed shortly after his passing. So then since he died in
2004 and this episode is from season 2007 then why was the
account still active for three years after his death?
Realistically none of this makes any sense and yes we are
discussing a TV show where so much never made any real sense
though when you consider that
1. Dan Cooper got ahold of his dead colleague's credit card
after Tim Speedle's death.
2. The account remained active for three years after his
death and was not closed.
3. Cooper was able to make purchases using a card that belonged
to a dead coworker.
4. I don't even remember Dan Cooper's character being a
recurring character in seasons one and two of the show.
Your comments and feedback on my points are welcome.
