The various CSI crime labs will be investigating a nightclub murder, the death of a DJ, and two plastic surgery mishaps this week.

Kicking off proceedings is CSI: Miami's "Legal", which CBS will air at 10:00 p.m. on Monday, October 18. Here's how the official network press release (available courtesy of The Futon Critic) describes the episode:

An 18-year-old girl is murdered at a hip Miami nightclub and the CSIs must find her killer. Horatio learns that the victim was an investigative aide working for Alcohol Beverage Control and was monitoring underage drinking. As Horatio interviews the club's owner, an unknown man drives by the club, sees that the police are there, and crashes his car while fleeing the scene. However, the case gets more complicated when they discover another murdered victim inside the car. DNA from the second victim's watch ultimately leads them to day spa where the services may not be entirely legal. Meanwhile, Calleigh and Ryan work together to determine whether an insecure and underage teenager at the club that night had anything to do with the murder.

The episode was directed by Duane Clark ("Witness to Murder", "Lost Son") from a script by co-producer Michael Ostrowski and executive story editor Ildy Modrovich.
