The "signature killer," who has been plaguing the CSI by leaving behind frustratingly tiny bits of evidence at each crime scene, strikes again. Grissom (William L. Petersen) is more convinced than ever that the elusive killer has a working knowledge of forensic procedure -- even to the point of planting contrary evidence that he (or she) knows will be dismissed. As if Grissom doesn't have enough trouble, the FBI insists upon taking over the investigation -- with CSI unit member Sara (Jorja Fox) as bait for the murderer. This was the final episode of CSI's first season. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

An unusually heavy rainstorm brings a inordinate amount of "traffic" into the ER. Outside the doors of the hospital, Weaver (Laura Innes) and a nervous, inexperienced Gallant (Sharif Atkins) risk electrocution from downed power lines to save a pregnant woman and her unborn baby. Inside, Greene (Anthony Edwards) treats a young boy whose brother was swept into a river. Carter's (Noah Wyle) grandmother, brought into the ER after sustaining injuries in a hit-and-run, begins hallucinating. Nicole (Julie Delpy), the troubled young girl befriended by Kovac (Goran Visnjic), may be stealing personal items from the staff. And Benton (Eriq La Salle) gets some disturbing news about his son, Reese (Matthew Watkins).

Sharif Atkins joins the series as Michael Gallant, a new medical student assigned to Carter (Noah Wyle). While making the rounds with Gallant, Carter learns to his chagrin that his grandmother (Frances Sternhagen) is now a "high-risk" patient who may die at any moment; he also helps Lewis (Sherry Stringfield) treat another med student who has been cutting herself. Elsewhere, a mall security guard is driven to desperate measures after accidentally injuring a skateboarder; Elizabeth (Alex Kingston) tries to determine the identity of the person responsible for euthanizing four of her patients in post-op; and, claiming to be Reese's (Matthew Watkins) biological father, Roger (Vondie Curtis-Hall) demands custody of the boy. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Against his professional principles, Grissom (William L. Petersen) becomes personally involved in the plight of a wealthy Las Vegas family whose baby has apparently been kidnapped. Complicating matters, evidence is unearthed suggesting that certain family members were themselves involved in the child's disappearance. And, as if to confirm the real-life inspiration for this episode, even the baby's parents find themselves under suspicion. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
