The CSI cross paths with a millionaire who might've gotten away with murder.
Tropes
- Armor-Piercing Response: After Darcy admits to the crime, she says she changed since the day she ran away. Sara replies she hasn't since she let an innocent man be framed for murder.
- Continuity Nod: As the 300th episode of the series, the episode ends panning over several evidence boxes from past cases with clips from old episodes playing.
- Faking the Dead: Darcy faked her death and made it look like Jack roofied her to get away from her father.
- That One Case: Sara and Greg have strong feelings about the Whitton case and both vow to bring justice to the case.
- Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: One thief decides to swallow the film she was after to make it look like she was innocent. The materials in the film then kill her.
- Wham Shot: Greg decides to see if he can clean up the film of Darcy, and once he does, he discovers a ticker on a nearby building of the date, which just so happens to be after Darcy's supposed death.
