CSI:NY has returned, just as gritty as ever. At least one thing has changed. The medical examiner from last season has become a field agent. In keeping with the eclectic makeup of New York citizens, the new medical examiner brings his own unique style to the show. The former medical examiner, Hawkes, brings his wide range of knowledge of various trivial matters to Mac Taylor's team.
No name yet for the new doctor, but that should be offered in time.
When this episode opens, Mac and Hawkes are investigating the death of a man who fell from a skyscraper. Since he fell from the 34th floor, that alone would have been suffcient to kill him. This was not a window washer, however. At least they have enough sense to use scaffolding. This was a guy CLIMBING up the building's side.
No gory details shown, one can imagine a rather nasty death. The bullet in the man's chest indicates murder, however.
Upon further investigation of the crime scene, Taylor walks to a boardroom in a law firm, Hawkes not far behind. A dead body tumbles out when they open the door, one of the two senior partners. And the only witness to either death is a mosquito.
Luckily for Mac, the skeeter is female. Only female mosquitos bite, so she would have bitten the guy who fell and his shooter.
Not content to leave the storyline on two corpses, writers put in a dead guy found at the bottom of stairs going down to a tunnel-like area. Danny finds Aiden and Stella processing the scene. Because the poor man is wearing a diamond bra, Danny naturally makes a smart remark. Aiden is annoyed, but the three figure out that the man is the designer of that particular undergarment.
Danny goes to interview the model who does ads with the bra. She says that the designer left the photo shoot alone, which is unusual for him.

This is one of the few episodes of CSI:NY that I've watched all the way through. I'm having such a hard time getting into this one. I love Sinise and Kanakaredes, but the rest of the cast leave me cold.

I'm watching Carmine, the guy who plays Danny. He and Eddie Cahill (Flack) are hot!
