Plot

Greg begins his journey from a lab rat to a field mouse, as the Las Vegas Crime Lab faces a personnel overhaul, during the fifth season of CSI. The team's final days together are plagued with more investigations into the insane and the unusual, including the discovery of an "alien" corpse just outside the boundary of Area 51, a body washed up in a thunderstorm, the kidnapping of a thirteen-year-old girl, a death at a fumigation, a swingers party, the return of the Blue Paint Killer, and a kidnapping at a hotel. It's the appearance of new evidence that appears literally as Grisson is on the witness stand, however, that causes Ecklie to separate Grissom and Willows' team, with Catherine, Nick, and Warrick delving into cases such as brain death, a body in a car, a severed head containing a snake, the death of a bear, and a murder involving sports betting. The risk of losing of one of their own, however, allows Ecklie and Grisson to set aside their differences, both personal and professional, and reunite the team once again.
