(The couple run out of the hotel to look for the young man.) BRASS walks away. Brass: Not in the garage. I do it with Grissom all the time. I got Brass' daughter's car in the garage. I ran with the case. Is that why you put me in charge? Off the record. POLICE DEPARTMENT - PARKING LOT - NIGHT]
(BRASS gets out of his car and starts making his way across the parking lot to the police department. She turns around.) So ... this is our con artist? The, uh, couple ID'd the deceased as the con man. Warrick: But? Warrick: With your permission, we need to take some x-rays. We'll be pressing charges, murder of Vincent Avery. Who?
Plan: A: Grissom; Q: Who is away when the team investigates the murder of the con artist? A: Warrick; Q: Who is in charge of the investigation when Grissom is away? A: the con artist; Q: Who is killed in the parking lot? A: Captain Brass' daughter; Q: Who is the prime suspect in the murder of the con artist? A: the investigation; Q: What does Captain Brass take himself off of professionally? Summary: With Grissom away, Warrick is in charge for the first time as the team investigates the murder of the con artist, who has run off with some tourists' money only to get shot and killed in the parking lot. The prime suspect in the case turns out to be Captain Brass' daughter, which causes Brass to take himself off the investigation professionally, but not personally.
