![]() Horatio becomes darker and more sinister as the series progresses. In addition, he occasionally uses duress or intimidation to extract information from suspects he is interrogating. It should also be noted that his son, Kyle, has the ability to draw his temper to the surface. This goes along with his overall lack of sense of humor and very disciplined approach to solving cases. However, there have been instances throughout the series when flashes of his apparently rather short and violent temper have come through, such as when he found out about his brother's illegitimate daughter, suggesting that his sterile attitude is the result of a harsh self-control. In addition, he frequently tries his best to give victims a "second chance," in the event that they have suffered from some sort of misfortune even attempting to bend the rules, if that would be to their benefit.ĭespite his creative one-liners, which are usually intended to humiliate criminals, he hardly ever displays a personal sense of humor. ![]() He is also especially soft towards children, often acting as a "father figure". While he usually has a pretty intense demeanor, he does have a softer side, which usually doesn't show until a case has been solved, and things are a little quieter in the lab. Despite his good report with children, Horatio tends to have a dry, sterile attitude, especially with suspects and members of federal agencies ( CSI: LV " Cross Jurisdictions"). ![]() Horatio is gifted at getting information out of children when speaking to a child he speaks softly and cocks his head (in his usual manner) allowing him to maintain eye contact with the child without making them feel guilty or upsetting them. Thus it is often difficult to tell what he is thinking. Horatio has a rather emotionally withdrawn personality and, despite the odd chuckle and smile here and there, acts rather dispassionate, unless empathizing with victims or his team and showing compassion to the same. This also results in people he comes into contact with either really liking or really hating him as a person. Horatio is a person that one could say both many positive and negative descriptions of, making it difficult to "sum up" his personality in a short phrase.
