CBS Monday premiered the promo video for next week Miami's new episode "Recoil."

In this episode, shots are fired outside the courthouse after a custody battle and the CSIs must find the shooter. Bullets fly and the target is the little girl's mother. Horatio goes after the father, who he suspects may not be the girl's biological father after all. However, when the mother's shady past is uncovered, the team finds that she has a lot of enemies who would like to take a shot at her. Meanwhile, Calleigh's father returns to the crime lab for her guidance but for an unexpected reason. "Recoil" was written by Steven Maeda and Marc Dube, and directed by Joe Chapelle.

The 30-second trailer for the episode is now available on the official CBS site. For those of you with slower connections, here's a transcript:
