Basically, what happened was that Nick Stokes ((A CSI guy)) was on the job when all of a sudden, he'd been abducted by this crazy old deranged man who was seeking revenge for his daughter's false accusal of being an accomplice to a murder... the CSI had found evidence that placed her there... and even thought she was innocent, they had to trial her as guilty, or something ((She ended up in jail, anyway))...

So anyway, the old man made some sort of Plexi glass coffin and threw poor lill' Nick into it, allong with a good supply of glowsticks, a tape recorder and a gun... then burried him alive! On the tape, the derranged old man left a message saying that if he wanted to, he had the option to shoot himself in the head, and kill himself... cause he wasn't coming out of this alive!

Then the derranged old man sent a tape and a USB thigny that stores info like a floppy disk ((What are those called?))... and basically, on that USB thigny had a website in which there was a message saying "All you can do is watch" ... and when they clicked the button, it would activate a bright light and a webcam to Nick's plexi glass coffin!

You were left to wonder throughout the entire episode if poor Nick would survive or not. Knowing bolth how CSI and Tarantino work... either ending was quite plausible. Situations seemed grim throughout most the ep.
