Plot
Dr. Raymond Langston's first day on the job turns into an adventure when he and Nick investigate a robbery case. Just before entering the house, an explosion occurs somewhere across town and they see fireball and smoke on the horizon. After getting fingerprints and interviewing the owner of the house, Langston and Nick drive to the explosion site where Brass tells them that the LVPD had received an emergency call from the house. The evidence collected seem to suggest that the arson and robbery cases are connected. Now they have to track down the masterminds behind it.
