Last week, Mac’s return from London shocked him with a crime scene on the Statue of Liberty’s face. This week, the CSI team is faced with a diver’s body that has been found with a tank filled with oxygen. How can he die of asphyxiation?

At the lab, Dr. Hammerback finds that his body has several starfish that feasted on the vic’s internal organs, but the cause of death is fatal amounts of cyanide in the body.  Since the victim had a congenital ear deformity called “cabbage ears”, the prosthetics led to the victim’s identity. His name was Doug Holden, an advanced certified driving instructor. Flacks and Stella questioned some of Holden’s students, including a married couple and two Albanian men.

Back at the lab, Lindsay discovers that the stomachs of the starfish had asbestos from subway cars, leading the team to suspect that Holden was killed in old subway cars dumped in the East River around 1970s. Hawkes and Danny took a dive to check out the cars only to discover the body of Holden’s missing partner, Matt Campbell.

The team finds out that both divers died of cyanide poisoning. Campbell’s body, however, had several gold coins in his pocket. Stella takes those coins to the antique store to determine its origin, but discovers all coins to be fake. A guy named “Drew Bedford” introduces himself to Stella.

Lindsay found larvae (in Campbell’s body) that are found in regions 100 feet deeper than the Hawkes and Danny previously looked. The two went diving again only to recover an old chest with more golden coins, a statue and a syringe. While searching for other clues, Hawkes got trapped in a metal pole. Fortunately, Danny came back to free Hawkes and they both got to land safely.

At the CSI lab, Danny examines the syringe and discovers large amounts of cyanide in it, making it the murder weapon. Plus, it also has a DNA with a mutation only unique to people from the Balkan descent. Stella recalls the two Albanian men she questioned.

At the Albanians’ apartment, the first suspect (Zamir Duka) tries to run pass Mac and Flack but was caught immediately. Stella searches for the other suspect, but instead finds a room filled with information on makings of a bomb. Mac and Flack put together that the commissioner has been running investigations into Iraqi insurgents, which the two Albanians would want to stop. After hiring the two certified divers to train them, the Albanians killed the men by luring them into the deep waters of East River with a promise of hidden treasure, which ended up being fake.

After calling in a death threat against the commissioner, the second suspect dived deep into the river to place the bomb. Flack learns about this threat and discovers that the commissioner is taking a helicopter to a UN conference, wherein they will land right over the water just as the Albanians have planned. The police disarms the bomb before the suspect could successfully set his bomb off, while Mac and Flack races to the pier to surprises the suspect that he’s under arrest.

There’s no better way to start a CSI: New York season than to place a crime scene at the city’s # 1 icon – the Statue of Liberty. Mac was on his way home from his London vacation when he was greeted with an extraordinary sight – blood dripping down the Statue of Liberty’s face and a murder of security officer Georgia Morse (who died with a slashed throat). Another security guard named Charles Price was supposed to be on shift ended up missing. Is he the killer?

The CSI team investigates the entire scene as Danny gets blood samples hanging hundreds of feet from the Statue itself. The blood from the statue was not from one victim alone – whether or not the blood came from a person or animal, the team has yet to figure out. Mac discovers two inconsistent blood drops from victim’s arterial splatter, while Hawkes recovers a sticky substance from the vic’s body, which Lindsay later determines as condom spray.

In between their investigation, Stella asks Mac about his trip and he tells her about the mysterious calls he received in London at exactly 3:33 every night, which all ended up without answers.

The team discovers a viewing station with blood on it and wire tied to keep it from moving. As Mac looked through the viewer, he discovered a man sitting across the water, which Mac and Stella first thought to be the killer staring at them. They were shocked to find out that the man, named Damion Brock, was dead with words “two more will die” written under his shirt and wounds on both the sides of his neck. Dr. Hammerback discovers that the 2nd victim was embalmed with a cleaning liquid, which explained his abnormal orangy color, and finds another piece of the puzzle — a small metal object stuffed in his mouth.

A new character appears. Kendall, a lab tech tries to one-up Adam (and vice versa) by discovering new evidences and leads. Kendall discovers that the wire from the viewing station was from a piano (for an “A” key), while Adam explained the tiny metal object was from a music box, customized to play a Mozart tune. It was made specifically for a musician named Nova Kent.

Danny and Stella interviews Kent, but she insists that she lost the music box while moving four times in a year.Danny was not convinced of Kent’s statement.

Mac eliminated Charles Price as a suspect when he studied the blood splatter and learned that Georgia’s blood only bounced off of his security badge. Dr. Hammerback found the missing security guard, but only his severed arm reached the lab when a group of boaters reported the sight.

Flack and Stella checked out Damion’s apartment to look for clues. Stella experiences dejavu as she enters the apartment. Morton Brite, the landlord, lets them into Damion’s room and Stella recognized him as the prime suspect of an unsolved murder of Marie Cousmira that she investigated a year ago. Flack finds that Damion was embalmed in the bathroom while still alive. Stella and Flack listened to a chilling call that has just came in – it was Damion’s terrified voice recorded before he died talking about a license plate.

Stella found a viewfinder toy in Damion’s apartment, which led to another victim – Lee Nakashima with his tongue cut out, who Mac and Danny found stuck in a drum at a popular music hall. The team found a video with Nakashima (before he had his tongue cut out) describing a man’s eyes, height, built. Since both Nakashima and Damion both lived in the same apartment a year ago, Mac put the pieces of the puzzle together and Stella says that the two may have been witnesses of Marie Cousmira’s murder.

The piece of paper found in Nakashima’s mouth revealed a ticket concert of Nova Kent. The team rushed to discover a man holding flowers for her, which they immediately arrested. Anthony Colton confessed on murdering Marie and threatening Kent, but strongly denies killing the security guards at the Statue of Liberty.

Stella visited Morton Brite to tell him about the good news that the CSI eventually solved Marie’s case. Inside Brite’s apartment, Stella discovers that his piano is missing an A string. Stella puts it together that Morton was angered that his girlfriend died and three witnesses shut their mouth and chose not to report the murder to the police. Morton pours Damion’s blood over the Statue’s face to get the police’s attention and lead them to Marie’s killer. After Stella shot Morton before he could escape, he shouts: Can you hear me now?

Back at the CSI lab, Mac is still working when he recieves a phone call exactly at 3:33 am. Who can be calling Mac? A killer he didn’t catch? An innocent person put in jail? What can be the significance of that time? Let’s find out in the coming weeks.
