Plot

edit

Riley Adams leaves the CSI team in turmoil, as Catherine's leadership skills are called into question ("Family Affair"), during the 10th season of CSI. The team, including the newly returned Sara Sidle, continue to investigate the gruesome, the premeditated, and the unusual, including the death of a porn producer ("Ghost Town"), a botched robbery ("Working Stiffs"), a cop-on-cop homicide ("Coup de Grace"), the murder of a football coach ("Blood Sport"), a bizarre revenge plot ("Death & The Maiden"), a death at a bowling tournament ("Lover's Lanes"), and a human trafficking case that leads Ray to both New York and Miami ("The Lost Girls"). Meanwhile, Nick, Greg, and Hodges celebrate Henry's birthday ("Appendicitement") as Catherine comes face to face with Rascal Flatts ("Unshockable"), and Langston begins to investigate a series of murders committed by Dr. Jekyll ("Sin City Blue"), which may lead to his own brutal end ("Meat Jekyll").

Teleplay by : Bradley Thompson & David Weddle		September 24, 2009 (2009-09-24)16.04[2]

The CSI team investigates the suspicious death of a young actress who was killed in a questionable traffic accident which links with Greg's case of a murder of an old man beaten to death in a motel. Gangsters break into the lab and steal a body, while getting into a gunfight with police; the body would later be known as her father's, which would later be found, shredded by a mulching machine. Meanwhile, Sara Sidle makes an unexpected visit to the lab while Grissom was addressing a group of students in Paris at the Sorbonne; with one CSI short, Sara was welcomed back on the team. Also: Ray becomes a CSI Level 2 after intensive training, with his own time and expense. Catherine learned that (between seasons) Riley Adams had resigned her post, over Catherine's leadership skills following Grissom's departure. And at the end, Ray and Dr. Robbins find something unusual in a body of a street performer.
