In the CSI episode “Kiss kiss, bye bye,” investigators look into a homicide in the ritzy setting of Las Vegas. The victim murdered was a waiter of Lois O’Neal, a woman who was once a Vegas showgirl and a girlfriend of one of the founding fathers of the city. The man has been shot through the heart, and bullet fragments are found in the carpet. The man’s autopsy showed that the bullet penetrated his right ventricle and entered his spine; therefore he would have been paralyzed instantly. Ms. O’Neal claims to have gotten away from the shooter and was found hiding in her safe after the incident. There are bullet marks on the safe door that would support her claim. The victim is searched and determined to have a crack file, and his body is found with a thousand dollars in cash. This drug habit links him to the popstar Ms. Cherry. She is questioned as a suspect because she had a crack pipe in her purse and had been at the same party that night where he was serving. Sam, the father of a CSI investigator, is also questioned as a suspect. He was the dancing partner of Ms. O’Neal the night of the murder, and it is determined that one of his monogrammed handkerchiefs has been used to wipe the gun used. He, as well as Ms. Cherry though, is found to be innocent. Ms. O’Neal, on the other hand becomes more suspicious as she tries to sway the CSIs with fancy foods, and is discovered to have been wearing different outfits from when before the man was shot to when she is found in the fault. Her first outfit is checked for blood or gun residue, and it is proven that The waiter had been stealing from her. Ms. O’Neal is described by an acquaintance as being one to “frequently give out cookies, but punish the one who sticks their hand in the cookie jar.” As the CSIs are closing in on her as the prime suspect, more evidence comes to light about her company paying for plane tickets for another couple involved in homicide. When the CSIs come to her house the next time, they find her shot on her bed. She looks “perfect” besides the smudge marks on her eyelids indicating she was murdered. Her bodyguard Tony finally admits to having killed her as a request. O’Neal most likely knowing she would be convicted asked her loyal friend and body guard to shoot her. She had said she wanted to be with her past boyfriend in the next life. Her bodyguard did as he was told, and O’Neal had promised to give her fortune to his family. It is further determined by CSIs that she was in fact guilty, and had set up the crime to look like someone else had murdered the waiter.
