Episode recap: The murder of a real life Indiana Jones leads the CSIs into the world of modern day archeologists; young, beautiful men and women who travel the world evading deadly obstacles in their search for treasures they hope will unlock mysteries of the past. As the investigation unfolds, our CSIs are shocked to learn that the life and reputation of a world-class archeologist need not be achieved through hard work and death-defying experiences. It can simply be purchased online. And buying this archeologist's adventurous life ultimately cost the victim his own. Also, the discovery of a rare and valuable Greek coin the archeologist was carrying, leads Stella down a dangerous road with the Greek Embassy and some consulate members who want the artifact.
