First 'A Night At The Movies' Plot Details

CSI Files

Sources today revealed the first plot details for the nineteenth episode of CSI's third season, entitled "A Night At The Movies".

In the episode's A-story, Grissom and Catherine are called to an art house movie theatre, where a man was killed during a showing of the <font color=yellow>Alfred Hitchcock</font> film Strangers on a Train. His name? Joe Sugarman, a dentist.

Under Sugarman's seat, Grissom finds a cell phone, with all the recent calls from a private number. Catherine also uncovers something important, a bloody Phillips head screw driver, possibly the murder weapon. Erik Barry, your stereotypical twenty-something film nerd, tells Grissom and Brass he saw a tall, blond woman leave the cinema during the movie, and she never returned. The CSIs now have their evidence - and a suspect.

The mysterious blond seems to be Audrey Hilden, a woman in her late twenties. When Grissom and Catherine pay her a visit, she tells them Sugarman had asked her to the movies, but she decided not to go because she had an early start the next day. Sugarman called Audrey before the movie started, but she didn't answer. "I screened," she says to the CSIs. But, forty minutes later, apparently guilty for not turning up, Audrey called his cell phone several times. No answer.

Further evidence turns up at the movie theatre - a pair of gloves which the blond woman threw into a garbage can after making a phone call from the theatre. They match the palm print on the screw driver, and the phone. All the evidence points to Audrey, except for two things - the blond woman called Audrey's home one minute before Audrey rang Sugarman, and Audrey has been found dead...

The B-plot centres around a dead fifteen-year-old found in a warehouse - Robby Decoster. His body looks like a war zone, scrapes on his back and knee caps, six-inch round bruises all over, and a single gunshot through the chest. Warrick, Sara and Nick collect evidence from the scene, including glass, beer bottles, tire treads, footprints - and bamboo.

Greg's tests on the beer bottles turn up five different DNA samples, including Robby's and a relative, who turns out to be his eighteen-year-old brother, Kevin. Questioned by Warrick, Kevin admits he bought beer for Robby and his brother's friends, who often hung out at the warehouse.

Later, under interrogation by Detective O'Riley, Kevin refuses to elaborate on exactly what happened, denying that he was at the warehouse when Robby was killed. But Nick, watching from the viewing room with Warrick, spots a scab on Kevin's elbow. Although Kevin says he got it skateboarding, it looks like a graze wound from a bullet. Suspicious, Warrick asks him to take off his shirt. Kevin does so, revealing the same six-inch bruises as his younger brother...

It is not known who wrote or directed "A Night At The Movies". Please note that the above plot details have not been confirmed by CBS, Alliance Atlantis or Bruckheimer films, and until such time you should treat this information as you would any other rumour.

"A Night At The Movies" will likely air in April or May, 2003.<center></center>
 
Can't wait. I love Hitchcock and I love CSI so that should be a great combination.
