4x4.jpg

4x4
Premiered: April 14, 2005
 The CSIs often work multiple cases simultaneously, but they're rarely stretched as thin as they are here when they divide up to cover four investigations. The crimes are fairly routine: a near-fatal hit-and-run accident; the murder of a model at an auto show; the death of a bodybuilder; and the discovery of a 12-year-old boy's lifeless body on a city bench. But the intriguing way they are presented is not. The opening scene touches on all of the cases, but after that, there is no cutting back and forth between investigations. Instead, each story plays out uninterrupted.
