[edit] Summary

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

The Cadillac of an infamous 1970s mob boss, Mickey Dunn, is found in a lake after he disappeared years ago. Shortly afterwards, a string of murders occur in which the killers almost eagerly leave evidence of their appearance for witnesses and the CSIs. Furthermore, an old picture of the victims standing next to Dunn outside the Desert Inn is planted on their bodies. The team must then find out what the connection is between the murders and Dunn. Guest stars Roger Daltrey from The Who.

[edit] Trivia

Mickey Dunn uses the names of famous horror movie killers (Michael Myers, Pamela Voorhees and Freddy Kreuger) as his aliases.
Mickey Dunn is quoted saying "He was a real good looking boy" which is a title of a the who song which the actor Roger Daltrey sings in.

Long before 'CSI' about the time The Who were at their peak "Mickey Dunn" was also a well known BBC Television series about a sleazy 'private eye' in the U.K. in the late 1960's who got most of his tips from the racetrack with a catchy theme song, "Mickey Dunn, knew a horse that never won, broke the jockey's heart.."
