Episode 701
Catherine and Grissom are summoned to the scene after a woman is found dead on stage in the middle of the Cirque du Soleil show KA, while Sara and Warrick crash Sam Braun's exclusive party after Robert O'Brian, one of the investors for his new hotel, Eclipse, is found dead, the gun still clutched by his hand. Robert's business partner, Joe, found Robert's body and is greatly shaken. Catherine and Grissom are frustrated to find the manager of KA moved the unidentified girl's body. He tells the CSIs that no one in the show recognized the young woman; she wasn't part of Cirque.
Dr. Robbins examines both bodies. He finds no evidence of sexual trauma on the young woman; she was crushed, but only after a fatal blow to the head. Dr. Robbins is frustrated when he opens O'Brian's body bag and finds it filled with blood; David Phillips forgot to tape up the fatal wound, allowing the blood to contaminate the bag, making GSR tests impossible. Hodges has more luck with green powder found on the female victim, which turns out to be foam from a floral arrangement, leading the CSIs to conclude she snuck into the show under the guise of making a flower delivery. Surveillance footage reveals her going in backstage with a man next to her. Nick is able to recover her bag from a sandbox used in the Cirque show and he learns her name was Celia Noel, and she had tickets for all of the Cirque shows. One of the tickets was purchased with someone else's credit card--a man named Arnie Clifton. The CSIs interrogate Arnie, who admits he snuck backstage with her. When he tried to make a move on her, she pushed him away and got struck by one of the moving stages. After she fell, he fled.
Dr. Robbins finds Robert O'Brian had a BAC of 1.9 and drugs in his system that match ones Joe has a prescription for. When they learn the gun Robert killed himself with is registered to Joe, their suspicions fall on him. In Robert's room, the CSIs find an over mit with sesame seeds in it, and an examination of the inside of the mit reveals the gun was transported in it. Sesame seeds found in Robert's pocket indicate he did indeed carry the gun to the party himself. The gun remained in his hand due to a rare condition he was suffering from, Dupuytren's contracture. Sara returns his personal belongings to a grieving Joe, who puts Robert's ring on his finger, next to his own matching band.
Brass reluctantly receives a commendation for his negotiation of the hostage situation that left him critically wounded. Catherine and Nick go to a John Mayer concert after their cases are closed, but while Nick is dancing with a woman, someone slips Catherine a drug in her drink. She wakes up naked in a hotel room and fearing the worst, begins to process herself. Unaware of Catherine's situation, Grissom and Sara begin to process a new crime scene: a man lies dead at a kitchen table, with the entire scene recreated in miniature right next to his body.
Episode 702
Picking up where "Built to Kill Part 1", Catherine summons Sara to the hotel where she woke up after possibly being assaulted. She asks Sara to work the case with her so that she can find out what happened to her. Grissom puzzles over the miniature replica of the crime scene he's at. The body of rock star Izzy Delancy is slumped over the kitchen table sporting a fatal head wound. Sofia and Nick speak to Izzy's family, including his second wife, Madeline, his son, Sven, his first wife, Dusty and the family's nanny, Annie, who found the body. Grissom finds a bottle of bleach in the trash, leading him to examine the sink, where he finds traces of washed-away blood. He discovers blood on a drawer handle, and inside the drawer, he discovers a rolling pin with blood on it. Dr. Robbins confirms Izzy's cause of death was blunt force trauma, and he pulls a key from the body. Grissom turns to the mini Izzy and dissects him. Sara tells him that Izzy was in negotiations to sell the rights to his songs to the hotel Olympia for a show, but hadn't signed the contract yet. In the event of his death, the rights would fall to his son, Sven, but they would be under the control of Sven's mother, Dusty, until Sven turned 18. Greg returns to Izzy's house, where he discovers the safe the key found in Izzy opens. In the safe he discovers the Olympia contract, a picture of Dusty and Izzy on their wedding day and several severed chicken heads.
Catherine brings her own sex assault kit to the lab and begins running tests. She finds no semen on the tampon, so she turns it over to Hodges to check for spermicide. Sam Braun stops by to check in on Catherine, but she brushes him off to continue her investigation. She revisits the bar she and Nick were at, but the bartender claims he doesn't remember her, and the only surveillance camera is aimed at the cash register, not the bar's patrons. Discouraged, Catherine goes to pick her daughter Lindsey up from her dance audition. Catherine is relieved when Hodges texts her to tell her the tampon came back negative for spermicide, but her peace of mind is again shattered when a car crashes into hers and a man snatches Lindsey from the car. When the CSIs arrive, Catherine is forced to tell them what happened to her, and Nick feels especially guilty.
Sam Braun calls when he hears about Lindsey's abduction, offering to take care of it. Catherine realizes she and her daughter are being used to get at Sam. He received pictures of Catherine passed out in bed at the hotel and of Lindsey bound to a chair, with a ransom demand for 20 million dollars attached to it. Catherine takes the photos back to the lab for examination. A print from the car matches a set from an unsolved robbery Catherine worked some time back, and the chair Lindsey is tied to matches one taken in the robbery. The CSIs are able to trace it to a house in town, which they storm. The kidnapper pulls a gun and they shoot him, and Catherine and Warrick are able to rescue her frightened daughter. Catherine recognizes the kidnapper from the bar, but can't recall any other man who might have been helping him.
The CSIs discover Annie Lansfield, the nanny, has been both sleeping with Izzy and selling pictures of him and his family to the Scandal Pages, a tabloid. Her DNA was found in the safe, making her a suspect. She admits to sleeping with Izzy, and confesses that she stole an X-ray of the key in Izzy's stomach after he swallowed it to keep it from Madeline and copied it, but denies killing him. After Sara and Sofia discover Dusty and Izzy's marriage wasn't legal, their suspicions turn to her. Dusty has an unusual alibi--she was with Madeline, who asked her to convince Izzy to sign the Olympia contract. When they learn Sven has a knack for drawing and dreams of a career in urban planning, they suspect the boy is capable of building the model, but he faints at crime scene pictures with blood in them. Grissom performs a test that confirms the boy isn't faking, leaving him with no suspects.
Catherine confronts Sam Braun to tell him that both she and Lindsey were being targeted by Joe Hirshoff, whose partner Robert O'Brian committed suicide over a bad investment. That investment was in one of Sam Braun's hotels, which ended up falling through before it was built, costing Joe and Robert 20 million dollars. Catherine's eyes widen when she spots Joe Hirshoff walking up behind Sam. She calls out a warning, but it's too late: Joe fires off two shots, killing Sam. Back at the lab, Grissom continues to puzzle over the miniature crime scene, noticing a doll's face on the back of one of the tiny pictures.
