The Quotable Caine:



Episode Recap:
After an ATM machine eats his card, Delko heads into Dade Mutual Bank to get it replaced. But while he's arguing with the bank manager, Frank Welch, about overdrawing his account, three bank robbers burst in. They take cash from one of the tellers and take the manager hostage, but when they go to rape a young woman at the bank, Delko draws his gun and shoots the would-be rapist. The other two robbers flee, taking the manager with them and fatally shooting another teller. When Alexx arrives at the scene, she's surprised to discover the dead robber is just a teen. The CSIs find nothing makes sense on the case: the dead robber has a clicker counter, one of the robbers was wearing wheelies on his feet and they only robbed one teller, taking $18,000 dollars. Though they shot the cameras in the bank, Delko recalls that there are several cameras around the ATM. When Delko and Ryan go over the footage with Dan Cooper, they spot the robbers car stop when the people inside spot Delko's Hummer. Dan Cooper is able to focus on a Miami University decal in the window of the car. Ryan places a call and learns that a dye pack exploded on a female student.
Calleigh questions Kim Mills, the girl who the dye pack from the stolen money exploded on. Kim claims she came upon a duffle bag containing the money in the laundry room and that it exploded on her when she opened it. Calleigh doubts her story, but Kim claims the only reason she was reluctant to come forward was because she was using a new, empty dorm's laundry room. Calleigh remains skeptical. In the lab, Ryan finds a large water stain on the bottom of the moneybag. Horatio tells Ryan that Erica Sikes has been looking for him. Delko analyzes the water stain and discovers coolant in it, leadings the CSIs to the Miami University ice rink. They go to the basement where the ice is made and discover the bank manager tied up. He tells the CSIs that the robbers were interested in the Federal Reserve bank drop. They arrive at the rooftop drop in time to stop the robbery, capturing one of the robbers. The kid remains defiant, saying they're "still in play." The words are familiar to Ryan: it's video game lingo. Ryan recalls a similar game called "Urban Hellraisers" and thinks the kids might actually be recreating the action in the game.
Calleigh greets Treasury Agent Peter Elliott who has arrived to look into the attempted bank robbery. They flirt briefly before Elliott goes off to interview Kim. Horatio and Tripp interrogate Gabe Hammond, the young man who was trying to rob the Federal Reserve officers. He is flip with them and says they decided to rob the bank after seeing Delko's Hummer because robbing a bank with a cop inside offers bonus points in the game. Each player used a clicker to keep track of the points he earned. Horatio is disgusted, but he can't get any information about the third bank robber, the one wearing the demon mask, out of Gabe, who claims not to know the guy's name. Horatio and Tripp track down Chris Allen, who wrote the game and owns the company that makes it, but he refuses to tell them about the games' levels, telling them instead to play it. They arrest him and give Ryan the task of playing the game. When he gets to the second level--the Federal Reserve robbery--Ryan notes that a sniper is supposed to be involved, so Delko and Horatio go back to the scene and discover the demon mask on a roof overlooking the helicopter drop where Gabe tried to rob the Federal Reserve officers.
Delko brings the mask back to the lab where he plans to have it analyzed for DNA. Because the mask was customized to the user's face, Delko plans to try to get a facial reconstruction from it and run it against student photos at Miami University. Calleigh runs into Peter, who asks her out for drinks. Ryan finally makes it to the third level of the game, only to discover the third level involves a raid on a police station to recover evidence the police retrieved. Suddenly, two gunmen burst into the lab and take the mask from Natalia Boa Vista. Just as one of them is about to shoot her for "1000 points," Horatio kills him. The other gunman begins shooting, shattering glass and causing Peter to throw himself over Calleigh to protect her. Horatio takes him down, too, wounding but not killing him. The gunman, whose name is Michael Page, is less cocky than Gabe was. Horatio finds a blueprint of CSI in his glasses--Page was an intern for the firm that designed the new labs. Michael doesn't know "Demon's" real name, but he suggests they try the scorekeeper, Evan Walsh, who games in the basement of the library. But when the CSIs go to find Evan, they discover him dead at his computer--he's literally played himself to death after not budging from the game for sixty hours. His heart gave out.
Delko notices an address on his computer, leading the CSIs to a photography studio where they discover Carl Hyatt, who has been dealing guns to the gamers. He claims he's just the middle man, and Horatio puts the pieces together when he sees a Trans International file on his computer. Calleigh visits Peter in the hospital and is dismayed to run into his fiancée, Monica. Horatio turns his sights back to Chris Allen, the videogame writer, who was using the university students to sell the videogames by supplying them with real weapons. Allen is unrepentant, and Horatio has him booked for trafficking and conspiracy to commit murder. Delko is still tracking Demon, and he gets a facial match on the mask, a former football player at Miami University named John Bery. But Bery denies the charges and claims he got rid of the mask when an injury sidelined him. Valera finally runs the DNA and backs up the story: the DNA is female, leading them back to Kim Mills. Calleigh thinks Elliott wasn't thorough in his questioning of Kim, and she's angry about him not telling her about his fiancée. He tells her Hagen told him to back off last year, but she maintains he should have asked her. Calleigh questions Kim, who defends her actions by saying she was playing the game to prove she could outdo them. Calleigh suggests she might--with her prison sentence.
