I was having dinner here; was on my way out. It'd gone off a couple of seconds later, you'd be picking my badge up off the ground." Gil: "Thank God you're all right. Sheriff, did they, uh, sweep the area for secondaries?" picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller Sheriff Atwater: "Bomb squad says it's all clear." Catherine: "We'll photo-document the scene. Overalls from all angles. Aerials as well." Gunfire erupts out of no where. picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller Gil grabs Catherine and pushes her forward, heading for a nearby vehicle. picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller He covers her body with his own, protecting her from the gunfire. The gunfire stops and Gil lifts his head looking around to make sure it's safe, still covering Catherine. picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller Gil and Atwater look in an open trunk. Sherriff Atwater: "Guess it wasn't a sniper." Gil: "Fixed ammunition in the trunk. The gunpowder must have heated up, and the, uh, rounds cooked off." Catherine: "I'm going to start marking the evidence." Officer: "Clear." Brass: "Stand down." The officers leave the apartment. Brass: "Good job, guys." Gil and Catherine walk into the apartment. Brass: "Okay, well. This guy was obviously on a week-to-week lease." Gil and Catherine look around the apartment. There is very little there. Catherine: "Left some clothes behind ... and a paper shredder. I'll bag it." Gil goes into the bathroom to check it out and Brass turns to Catherine. Brass: "No sign of any bomb-making material. I'll go check the garage." Brass leaves. Gil searches the bathroom while Catherine continues to look around in the living room. Catherine dusts a magazine cover as Gil comes back out of the bathroom. Catherine: "'Dr. Amerian, 4:00 P.M.' Oh, today. I'll make an appointment." picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller Timmy Dunbar: "Mom, what's going on?" Beth Dunbar: "I don't understand." Catherine: "Mrs. Dunbar, could you and your son wait outside, please?" picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller Officer: "Ma'am, come with me. I'll fill you in." She follows the officer and Gil and Catherine enter her house. Catherine puts her kit down and picks up a family photo. Gil looks around the house. picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller Gil: "Catherine, there is a volcano on the table." Catherine walks over to Gil and looks at the volcano with him. Gil: "Aluminum powder. Polyvinylbutadiene. Ammonium perchlorate." picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller Catherine: "The three ingredients to make lava flow. In fifth grade, I built one of these as my science fair project. It was awesome. First place should've been mine. But they ended up giving it to this kid with some lame red ant colony." Gil smirks at Catherine's memory and Catherine looks over at him. picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller Catherine: "That was you." picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller Gil: "Yeah, only my ants were Black Argentinians." Catherine: "Uh-huh." Gil: "I learned at a very early age that the bugs always win." picture courtesy of CSI Storyteller Catherine: "Right." Debbie Dunbar: "Can I help you?" Catherine: "Good evening. We're with the Las Vegas Crime Lab." Debbie: "Oh, god. Did something happen to my husband? He was supposed to be home on Monday night. I've been calling his cell. He's not at work." Catherine: "Is this your husband?" Debbie: "Yes." Catherine: "You're currently married to him?" Debbie: "Yes. What is going on?" Catherine: "Well, your husband is a suspect in a criminal investigation. Currently, he's in police custody." Gil: "Mrs. Dunbar? Do you have a daughter?" Debbie: "Amy." Gil: "Is she entered in the science fair?" Amy Dunbar: "You can't take it." Gil: "Amy, did you use this the tool to work on the inside of your volcano?" Amy: "Yeah, my dad did." Catherine: "He helped you build it?" Amy: "Yeah." Debbie: "I teach yoga. I have no idea how this works. It was all Roger." Gil: "When's your science fair?" Amy: "Friday." Gil: "Well, we'll do our best to get this back to you by Friday, okay?" Amy: "Okay." Catherine: "We found these pliers in your car's glove box. You used them to fix the hose bib. And to ... make a bomb." Gil: "Mrs. Dunbar ... how long have you known about Roger's double life?" Beth: "His other wife's name is Debbie. Once or twice a year he'd call me by that name. I ignored it." Gil: "It's very difficult for two people to live a lie, let alone three." Beth: "Look, when Roger and I were together, he was a good husband. Terrific father. It was almost like being in a state of suspended honeymoon." Gil: "Really? So what changed?" Beth: "He asked me to get his dirty laundry out of the trunk of his car. There was a plastic bag with all the makings of a volcano. Including the stars I had hand-cut for my son. I'd always suspected there was another woman, but never ... another family. So. Two weeks ago Sunday, I followed him. He, uh, dropped off his rental car and walked to some apartment building. Then he changed his clothes, and got into a nicer car, and drove out to Henderson." Catherine: "Why didn't you just leave him? Turn him in?" Beth: "He made a fool out of me. A mockery of our life." Catherine: "Mrs. Dunbar, you killed three innocent people." Beth: "That was never my intention. That bomb was supposed to go off at 8:30 on his way to the airport." Gil: "Why a bomb?" Beth: "It, it's not much harder to make a bomb than a volcano."
