Grissom and his team look into the hanging death of a young man whose corpse originally appeared to be that of a woman.

Liz gets surgery to look better for her girlfriend (ALANIS MORISSETTE). James uses Christian to lure Michelle into stealing another kidney. Marlowe wants his legs lengthened.

Sean drinks to a great extent as he spends a depressing Christmas without his family; Christian gets an surprising gift when a 3-year old Wilber comes back into his life; and James pressures Michelle to help as she takes forceful measures to fill her holiday kidney quota.

Sean considers selling his shares of the practice to Christian and Michelle, although Michelle's past starts to threaten her future with Christian. Meanwhile, Escobar's wife needs cosmetic surgery.
