The eighth season of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation opens with the team searching for one of their own.

"Dead Doll" begins where season seven left off: with Sara Sidle (Jorja Fox) trapped beneath a car in the desert. The team must rescue her before it's too late. "Dead Doll" was written by Dustin Lee Abraham and Allen MacDonald.

The first of two promos can be seen below, followed by a full transcript.
