Russell is assigned to interrogate Jacob Baker, who has stolen a BMW from an important politician. Meanwhile, Lt. Debra Hughes assigns her husband, Officer Blake Hughes, to work at the reception desk. Out of the blue, a teenager pulls out a pistol and shoots the officer at the desk, and then she shoots other officers. He runs to the interrogation room, shots Jacob Baker and points a pistol to the head of Russell. He locks the door and does not talk to Russell. Jacob is bleeding and Russell convinces him that he needs medical support, and Greg brings a kit to Russell. He asks the teenager to give some water to give to Jacob and he leaves his fingerprint on the bottle that Russell turns to the surveillance camera. Hodges identifies the fingerprint as the sixteen-year-old Mark Powell. He checks the notebook all the time and Russell believes he wants to see the news about his rampage in the police station. When the LVPD bring his mother to the station, they learn why Mark has hatred for the police officers. But soon Greg learns that someone in the station was exchanging emails with Mark for six months. Now they want to find his accomplice.
"The Fallen" is a great episode of "CSI", with the story of a disturbed teenager that kills and wounds police officers. I like the fate of cop killers in United States, since they are not spared by the police forces. The plot shows a confused teenager manipulated by a police officer for personal reasons, and she should have the same fate of Mark Powell. My vote is eight.
