CSI: NY 8x16: Sláinte

Original Air Date: 27 April 2012

Storyline: The team tries to figure out who killed a Hell's Kitchen businessman and placed his body parts at the four corners that mark the neighborhood's original boundaries.Trivia: As it was the case of episode 6x17 "Pot of Gold", there are several references to Ireland, its people and folklore: Sláinte is Irish for 'health', used as a drinking toast. 'The luck of the Irish' is a catch phrase that is used to explain the good luck that makes a person of Irish descent beat some odds. Since Irish people have historically suffered many misfortunes, there seems to be some inexplicable and inherited form of good luck that makes things come out right for them. 'The Life of Riley', a phrase meaning 'to live an easy and pleasant life' originated in the Irish/American community in the USA. 'Hell's Kitchen', now referred to as 'Clinton', was a century-old hangout for Irish immigrants. The four semi-traditional boundaries or corners of Hell's Kitchen are the Hudson River west, Times Square east, Chelsea/Penn Station south, and the Garment District north.
