A few hours had passed and Catherine and Grissom watched the computer for any other clues. Warrick, Sara, and Nick were in the lab trying to piece together what the killer had told them so far.
"Ok so they showed us City Limits which was near the spot we thought Greg was. They showed us electrical wires which we thought symbolized electricity possibly for an electrical company." Sara said.

"I'll do a search on the computer on electrical departments near Brushy Fork Road." Warrick said.

"Thanks."
"How much time does he have left?" Nick asked.

"About an hour." Sara replied. "We're working as fast as we can." She added when she saw Nicks face fall. Meanwhile the kidnapper appeared on screen. They ripped off Greg's gag again.
"Would you like to say your goodbyes?" they asked.

"For what?" Greg asked.

"I've been recording you, you idiot. Your little CSI friends have been watching this all this time. So do you want to say goodbye to them?" Greg nodded. They left as Greg spoke to the camera that the kidnapper pointed to.

"Nick, don't blame yourself for what happened. You couldn't have prevented it. I'll miss you." Greg stifled back tears.

"Whoever's watching this tell my mom and dad I love them and that I'm sorry that I caused them so much trouble throughout their lives. Sara, I'll miss you more than words can say. You're a wonderful person. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Catherine, I can't begin to describe how great you've been to me all these years. Warrick, thanks for straightening me out and teaching me the basics of being a CSI. Grissom, I can't tell you how much I appreciate the fact that you gave me such a wonderful opportunity. I'm sorry for ever disappointing you." Greg began to openly cry now and Catherine couldn't stop the tears from falling down her face.

"You never disappointed me Greg." Grissom said out loud. He noticed that the kidnapper had written something on a piece of paper. It read Sherman's Electricity.

"Catherine, keep watching the tape."
"Ok Griss." She said quietly. Grissom ran to the lab to Warrick, Sara, and Nick.

"Warrick do a background check on Sherman's Electricity."
"I just did. I typed in electrical companies near Brushy Fork Road and this was the only one that came up."

"What do you know about it?"

"A man named Sherman Bradford owned it and it was pretty successful until the 90s when they went out of business. The building still exists. The address is..Oh my God!"

"What?" Grissom asked. Everyone stared at Warrick.

"It's right across the street from where the trace led us."

"We've got him." Grissom said.

"But wait what if it's a trap like last time?" Nick asked.

"We'll have Archie keep an eye out for us again. We can be back in plenty of time if it's not the right building. I'll tell Catherine." Grissom rushed back to the AV lab to tell her what they found. All the CSIs rushed to their cars.
"Ok the kidnapper is not going to be happy if they hear us near the scene again. So everyone turn off your lights and sirens when I say so." They all nodded. Brass led the cars to the familiar scene. Halfway there Grissom gave the signal and they shut off their lights. But continued going faster and faster. Greg laid on the table waiting for death to take him. The CSIs finally arrived at the scene.

"I'll look in that window." Warrick said.

"Be careful." Grissom warned him. Warrick looked in and immediately saw Greg. Greg happened to turn toward the window and saw Warrick. Warrick put his fingers to his lips warning the young CSI to be quiet. He mouthed "You'll be ok." And returned to the CSIs. The kidnapper noticed Greg staring at the window. They came in with a knife.

"What are you staring at?"
"Nothing." Greg said clearly despite the fact the gag was over his mouth. The kidnapper ripped off the gag.

"What are you staring at?"

"Nothing."

"Don't lie to me."

"I'm not."

"I have ways of getting answers out of you." They pulled a roll of duct tape out of their pocket and ripped off a piece. As they were getting ready to put it over Greg's mouth he bit their hand as hard as he could. He broke the skin and caused the hand to bleed. The kidnapper screamed and hit Greg with their free hand.

"You stupid bastard!" they screamed as they placed the duct tape over his mouth. They took the knife and pierced his stomach. Greg groaned in pain.

"You gonna tell me what you saw?" Greg didn't respond. They took the knife and dragged it across the stomach. Greg screamed as the knife cut him.

"Do I need to do it again?" they asked. Suddenly the door burst open.

"Las Vegas Police Department!" Brass screamed. Greg sighed with relief as tears fell down his face.
"Put the weapon down, put the knife down you fucking psycho!" Brass yelled. The kidnapper kneeled down but quickly stood up and placed the knife over Greg's stomach.

"Take one more goddamn step toward me and I'll stab him. Don't believe me, try it." Greg screamed "No, No!" Grissom could hear despite the gag over his mouth.
"Don't worry Greg." Grissom said. His teammates huddled together.

"Ok guys. Put your guns down." Grissom whispered. Nick interrupted

"And give this psycho what they want? No fucking way!"

"We're just going to put them down for a second Nick then you all lean down like you're going to pick yours up. Brass you actually pick it up and shoot them." Brass nodded. Grissom stood and faced the kidnapper. He put his gun down.

"Ok you win." Greg began to scream again but he caught look at Grissom's face and knew they had a plan. One by one the CSIs put their guns down.
"That's better." The kidnapper said as they lowered the knife. All the CSIs bent down like they were getting ready to pick the gun up. They held the knife over Greg's stomach but didn't realize Brass had grabbed his weapon and quickly shot it. The kidnapper started to fall but the team realized in horror that they still held the knife. The scene seemed to play in slow motion as the knife stabbed Greg in the abdomen. The gag couldn't muffle the piercing scream the hit the CSIs like they had been stabbed with the knife. Brass went over to check the kidnapper and the CSIs hurdled around their friend. Greg wouldn't stop screaming and crying.
"Greg" Grissom said trying to calm him.

"Greg, Greggo!" Greg stopped screaming. Grissom grabbed onto Greg's hand.

"I know you're in a lot of pain right now. And we're getting an ambulance here right now. But listen to me. We're going to remove these cuffs. While we're getting these off and afterwards you need to stay as still as you can. Ok?" Greg nodded.
"Squeeze my hand if you understand." Greg squeezed as hard as he could.

"Good, we're going to get this gag off." Nick came over to his side and placed his fingers on the gag.
"Do it fast Nick. Like a band aid." Nick nodded and ripped off the gag as fast as he could. Greg sobbed and repeated

"Thank you, thank you." Nick held back tears in his eyes as he held onto Greg's hand.
"You're ok now. You're ok."

Grissom found a small key near the table and inserted it into the lock that was locking the cuffs. The lock fell off.
"Warrick place your hands over the wound. Stop it from bleeding." Warrick went over and placed his hands tenderly on the spot where the knife was sticking out. Greg hissed in pain.

"I'm sorry Greg." Warrick said. Sara came over and held onto Greg's other hand. Catherine gently rubbed his arm. Grissom removed the lock from the other cuff.
"Ok lower his arms slowly." Nick and Sara lowered them carefully. Grissom moved on to Greg's feet. Something alarmed Warrick.

"Grissom, his breathing's labored."

"Talk to him. Make sure he doesn't pass out." Grissom said calmly but deep down he was very concerned.

"Hey, Greggo? Talk to me ok? Do you feel ok?"

"Yeah, fine just a little bit of pain. I want to go to sleep."

"No Greg, don't fall asleep ok? Talk to us."

"What about?" Greg asked wheezing.
"Anything."

Greg wheezed again and something caught Nick's eye, blood out of the corner of his mouth.
"He's swallowing blood!" Nick yelled.

"Put his head up let him spit out any of the blood." Nick lifted his head gently. What seemed like a sea of blood came slowly out of Greg's mouth. Nick look horrified as he laid Greg's head back down. After Grissom removed the final lock from the cuff they noticed something alarming.

Greg wasn't breathing.

Grissom moved beside Greg. Nick moved out of the way but continued holding his hand. Grissom blew air into Greg's fragile body. He began chest impressions. "Come on Greg, breathe." Grissom continued to blow air into his body and began more compressions.
"Damn it Greg, come on, come on." He blew more air into his body and tried more compressions but Greg didn't respond. Catherine walked away and began sobbing. They lost him. Sara had tears falling down her face.
"Grissom." She said lost for words.

Grissom pounded on Greg chest with his fist.
"Come on Greg, come on!" he screamed. Sara let go of his hand and hugged Catherine. Both sobbing in each others arms. Warrick pulled his hands off Greg's stomach and went over to Sara and Catherine. He put an arm around both of them he held back his own tears. Brass stood outside waiting for the ambulance. He'd seen quite a few things in his years of a police officer but couldn't handle watching the older man beat Greg's chest and beg for a response. Inside Grissom continued blowing air into Greg's body and pounding on his chest. Nick couldn't handle it anymore.

"Grissom, Grissom stop he's not going to come back he's…he's". Grissom finally stopped and stared at Greg.
"It's ok you did what you could." Nick said gently. Grissom shook his head.
"No, No." he said as he leaned down to blow more air into Greg's body.

"Grissom, no."

"Come on!" Grissom yelled as he performed more compressions.
"Stop!" Nick yelled.

"Come on!" Grissom yelled as he pounded on his chest. After a few more minutes of compressions Grissom stopped. Being as stubborn as he was he blew one last breath of air into Greg's body and preformed 4 more compressions. He pounded his chest one final time but this time they heard a loud gasp. Greg was gasping and coughing. Grissom moved his head to the side. Nick, Sara, Catherine, and Warrick quickly huddled around him. All of them were crying with happiness.

"Just breathe deep." Grissom said gently to Greg.

"Good job man." Nick said to Greg. Brass came back in to see what happened. He saw all the CSIs around Greg and feared the worst.
"He's ok Brass. He's breathing." Grissom said.

"Thank god, don't scare us again like that Sanders." Greg managed to smile weakly. They heard sirens. The paramedics arrived and placed the kidnapper on a stretcher. The next paramedics put Greg on a stretcher and put him into the ambulance.

"I'm going with him." Nick said.

"Ok, go ahead. Call us when you get there." Grissom said. Nick followed Greg and the ambulance doors shut behind them.

"Thanks Grissom." Sara said.
"For what?" Grissom asked.
"For not giving up on him."

"I know Greg and I knew he wouldn't go down without a fight."
"Let's get back to the lab and let everyone know we got him. The lab techs are going to be happy." Catherine said. The CSIs walked back to their cars together.
