When four Thailand's Buddhist monks are found shot in the forehead between their eyes, Grisson, Sara and Nick investigate the case. Grissom finds a gang symbol carved on the wall, but no golden piece stolen. Nick finds a rifle in the temple and Detective Ray O'Riley interviews the monk Ananda that survived the massacre because he was at the bank by the time of the murders. Then he interviews the cook David Suddahara that tells that the temple is open all the time. Grissom requests photos from the military satellite to identify who was in the area of the temple. The CSI finds a car that belongs to a Peter Hutchins, who owns a nearby diner that believes the temple has responsible for his drop of business. He and his son become prime suspects. Meanwhile, Catherine decides to reopen the case of her friend, the stripper Stephanie Watson, who was murdered when she was a dancer. Her former mentor Jimmy Tadero, incriminated the criminal Dwight Kelso that went to prison. But now that he is dying in the hospital, he admits killing a man in Reno, but denied killing Stephanie. Now Catherine summons Warrick to revisit the case together.
"Felonious Monk" is a good episode of "CSI" with two complicated cases. The main one is about the stupid murder of four monks and the monk that survived omitting information to the police and to the CSI, misleading the investigators. Catherine digging a case from the past after watching a dying criminal telling on TV that he was framed and did not kill her friend is a solid part of the development of her character. The conclusion of both cases is satisfactory, even with the unsolved case. My vote is seven.
