The CSI team investigates a suspicious blaze at a trailer park. A couple lies in the smoldering wreckage, still tangled in the bedspread, dressed for sex. But when the autopsy finds that their deaths are inconsistent with a fiery explosion, Grissom and Nick discover bruises on the male’s body – with the distinctive pattern of tire treads. It appears that the explosion was really a hit and run.
Across town at “G-String Row,” a Jane Doe is found dead wearing rubber boots and a plastic shopping bag over her thong. As Catherine and Warrick process the scene, Warrick drops the bombshell that he’s gotten married. The victim’s fingerprints are no help with the ID, but a logo on the rubber boots leads to a sanitation worker who claims the victim ran up to him, hysterical, begging for a ride, and he dropped her off along his route – four blocks from where she died. Catherine and Warrick must deal with emotional repercussions of his marriage, as traffic surveillance footage leads them into the seedy world of Vegas stripper buses and the discovery that the victim is not some crazy stripper, but a well-off suburban housewife.
An abandoned car covered with parking citations and emitting a foul smell attracts Sara and newly-minted Homicide Detective Sofia Curtis, who pop the trunk to find a hideous, goopy mess – the remains of two bodies, a male and female, left stewing a week in the summer heat. Sara and Greg wrap the vehicle in a car condom and bring it to the lab, but the bodies are so deteriorated that it is difficult to get IDs from the skeletal remains. Ultimately, scraps of cinnamon buns left in the car hold the clue to the victims’ identities and their vicious killer.
Meanwhile, Grissom receives a package containing the cassette tape that was buried with Nick. After computer-enhancing the audio, Grissom discovers that Nick’s ordeal might not be over after all.
