Note: This episode containes an Adult Content Warning.

Synopsis:

A young woman, Wendy Garner, is speeding when she's pulled over by a police officer. She explains to the officer that she's being pursued, and offers to show him a videotape she has. The officer turns her down. The scene shifts--Wendy lies dead in her car, Grissom examining the deep neck wound that killed her. Catherine finds Wendy's camcorder, but there's no tape inside. Grissom indicates that Wendy was cut below the throat as well, indicating her genital region.

David Phillips autopsies Wendy while Catherine looks on. He notes her large engagement ring, as well as the cosmetic surgery she's had, including breast implants and collagen in her lips. Meanwhile, Warrick and Sara go over Wendy's car. Sara is puzzled to discover two IDs in the car: Wendy's, which identifies her as a dancer at the Tangiers, and the driver's license and car registration of one Walter Clancy, a young, dark-haired man.

Dr. Robbins clears the mystery up: Wendy had gender reassignment surgery. Grissom posits that perhaps this is why her throat (where her Adam's Apple would have been) and genitals were cut. Catherine notes that it looks like a sexual assault turned into a hate crime.
