Warning: May contain spoilers.


“Going Ballistic,” the 21st episode of the season, kicks off with the death of a man named Manny Ortega, who appears to have committed suicide by jumping through a glass window.  Horatio arrives at the scene, and after much investigation, concludes that the case is a homicide.  The new medical examiner Shannon approaches the scene as the rest of the forensic crew welcomes her. She inspects the cuts all over the victim's body and gets the shock of her life as she hears a gasp. It appears that the victim may not be dead after all.

Before everyone else can react, Shannon gets marked by an unseen shooter who plants three bullets in her chest.  With the death of Shannon, a new medical examiner eventually joins the team in the form of the not so friendly Thomas Wellner, who isn't pleased with the team's constant comparison with Alexx.

In the course of the investigation, the Miami forensic team discovers that victim Manny was supposed to reveal some dangerous ammunition that might hit the streets of Miami.  Beyond the pressure of finding the killer and the ammunition, Horatio also has to deal with the return of Ron Saris.

“Going Ballistic” is written by Corey Miller and directed by Sam Hill.
