C.S.I. New York Episode Guide
the result of something pressing into the exit wound, causing it to look like an entrance wound.
Flack, Danny and Lindsay take Sam back to the alley to see if he can remember anything. Sam
tells them that the shooter ran the same way out the alley that he and his brother did, and
doesn’t recall him dripping any liquid when he ran off. Flack thinks Sam is scared and confused,
but Danny thinks something isn’t adding up, noting the absence of blood splatter and a bullet.
Adam tries shooting a pig cadaver in the lab to confirm his theory that Nicky was wearing a
backpack when he was shot. Mac and Flack question Mrs. Harris and Sam about the backpack,
and Sam says he forgot that his brother was wearing a backpack. When Mrs. Harris recalls her
son had a cell phone in his backpack, Mac asks for the number. The CSIs trace the phone to the
apartment of a Troy Castro, who is in the system. Mac, Stella and Flack go to his apartment, but
Troy flees, shooting at them as he goes. Flack gives chase, but the pursuit comes to an abrupt
halt when Troy is struck by a bus and killed.
Stella finds Nicky’s backpack in Troy’s apartment, and discovers a bullet in a history textbook.
They find red dye on the book, and are surprised to discover a thick wad of money covered in dye
in one of the backpack’s pouches. Hawkes matches the bullet from the textbook to Troy’s gun,
and notes that the same gun was used in a bank robbery at a First Federal branch a month ago.
Additionally, a First Federal branch was robbed yesterday, just twelve blocks from the alley where
Nicky was shot. A bank teller informs Stella and Hawkes that the robber asked for $933, and that
he was younger than Troy or Johnny. She recalls him wearing a cap identical to the Derek Jeter
baseball cap found in the alley. Stella and Hawkes confront Flack, who maintains there’s no way
Sam and his brother robbed the bank. Hawkes thinks Castro, who had been hitting banks in
the area, followed the boys and shot them for the money. Mac and Flack question Sam and his
mother, who is surprised to learn the amount taken was the amount of rent money she needed.
Sam admits to the robbery, telling the CSIs he overheard his mother on the phone with the
landlord and convinced his brother they had to get the money somehow. Nicky found a gun and
emptied the bullets inside so that it couldn’t actually hurt anyone and robbed the bank. Troy
followed them and demanded the money and shot Nicky when he wouldn’t turn it over. Sam,
afraid that they would get in trouble, pinned the crime on Johnny, who had taken Nicky’s watch
a few days before. The DA and bank president agree not to press charges, and money starts to
pour in from sympathetic people. Flack, Mrs. Harris and Sam are by Nicky’s bedside when he
wakes up.
