This is really another one of these bizarre stories, but certainly a very interesting one. Even the "characters" in here - "Stella," "Mac," and the CSI group - admit things are a bit too weird because of all the strange occurrences that seem to connect with deadly consequences.
In fact, that's the overlying theme of this episode: the fact that life is often unexplainable. The question a victim asked here is "Why? Why are all my friends dead and not me? Hey, you have to realize some answers will be never be explained this side of heaven....and that's tough for many people to deal with, especially the main character here, "James Roberts," played effectively by Joe Reegan.
"James," for most of the show, is under the influence of LSD, an hallucinogen that was slipped into this drink earlier in the night, so he's as mystified at what's going on as the cops.
CSI boss "Mac Taylor" (Gary Sinise) also is good in here and shows, once again, his compassionate side as he tries to help James through that LSD trip.
