A big bang rocks Brooklyn.

According to CSI Files sources, the seventeenth episode of CSI: New York's fifth season will be called "Green Piece". Adam Ross is on a street in Brooklyn, a white van parked nearby. A group of people are playing street hockey. Suddenly, the white van explodes, rocking the street and destroying a nearby house. Adam is close enough to lose his senses temporarily. As he stumbles, a friend rushes toward him, trying to figure out if he's alright.

Adam is still stunned, but he regains the ability to hear. People are screaming, and sirens blare in the distance. Much closer, Adam hears someone yelling for help. The voice is coming from inside the house. Adam doesn't stop to think. He rushes toward the burning building and finds the man trapped inside, pulling him to safety.

Mac and Hawkes arrive quickly. They were at a courthouse in Brooklyn when the explosion occurred. Mac goes to Adam as Hawkes jumps into the back of the ambulance with the man Adam rescued. Adam starts to tell Mac it was stupid to rush into the house, but Mac cuts him off. What he did showed courage. Adam thanks Mac as an EMT comes to look at a wound on his head.

In the ambulance, Hawkes speaks to the man as the EMTs do their job. His name is Felix Redman, and it was his house that got destroyed. He doesn't know anything about the white van and says it wasn't in front of the house when he got home. Felix tells Hawkes that his wife was out of town and his daughter was not home. He says he's lucky that the house is all he lost.

The scene is soon swarming with people: police, the fire department, the FBI, Homeland Security--they can't take any chances. This might be a terrorist attack, and people are already panicking. An FBI agent meets up with Flack as news crews gather at the crime scene. The agent says the FBI is working with the NYPD on this one--Flack is skeptical, but he's more than willing to cooperate. This situation needs to be dealt with quickly.

While processing the scene, the CSIs discover that the bomb claimed a victim. A young woman's body is found in the rubble of the house. Sid determines that the bomb killed her, but Felix is adamant that nobody else was with him when the van exploded. Stella takes him to the morgue to look at the body, and Felix is shocked when Sid pulls back the sheet. Tears well up in his eyes when he recognizes the victim: it's his daughter, Allison.

The team works to piece together what caused the explosion and who might be behind it. Meanwhile, Lindsay prepares for some much needed time off as she gets farther along in her pregnancy. Danny surprises her with a trip to the clerk's office to take care of some personal business--all she has to do is say, "Yes".
