'CSI' Says 'Goodbye And Hello'

For the CSI: Crime Scene Investigation team, it's business as usual even as they say goodbye to a long-time friend.

As Ausiello recently reported, "Goodbye and Hello" is rumoured to be Jorja Fox's (Sara Sidle) last episode with CSI. According to CSI Files sources, "Goodbye and Hello" begins at night on the campus of W.L.V.U. In the dorms, students are engaging in some very different activities. On the first floor, a party is in full swing involving a couple of freshman fraternity pledges and a beer keg. One of the young men is upside down on a table, guzzling beer and stomping his foot against the ceiling.

In the room above the fraternity pledges, several students are doing biology homework. The pounding from the fraternity pledges below isn't the only sound coming through the walls. One of the students stands on his desk to press a stethoscope to the ceiling. In the room above their own, a young woman wears sexy lingerie in a room dimly lit by candles. She and her lover have just had sex, and as she tries to get him to go for round two, a shape speeds past outside of the window.

The body of a young woman hurtles downward, obeying gravity. After falling past all three dormitory windows, she hits the ground with a sickening crunch. She is face down, her limbs bent at unnatural angles with blood on the ground around her head. The young woman is eighteen and brunette, her face shattered by the fall. The crowd begins to swarm.

When the CSIs arrive, Catherine takes pictures of the young woman as David Phillips examines the body. He cannot find any identification, but they think they might know who she is when a young woman hurries out of the crowd, screaming for her best friend Lanie. Catherine starts to let the girl come closer, but it turns out to be a false alarm. Lanie is in the crowd, and the two young women share a tearful hug. David tells Catherine that this is the third person on campus to jump this year. Catherine does not offer her opinion on this as she takes pictures of some bloody teeth near the body.

Nick and Greg are also on the case. When the young woman is positively identified as Kira Dellinger, they go through her dorm room and find a tube of sexual lubricant with a fingerprint on it. Later, in another part of town, Catherine and Ronnie Lake are on-scene when a woman returns to her home after a domestic incident. She says that she and her husband got into an argument and she went for a walk. Ronnie notices blood dripping onto the floor and walks around the woman to find that she has a knife sticking out of her back.

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. The above information comes from early script drafts and the details of the episodes are liable to change before the episodes are shown.

"Goodbye and Hello" is expected to air November 8.
