Cultural/Economic/Romantic Tensions
Hitchcoc26 March 2021
When the sister of a touring Cuban singer (a sort of Gloria Estefan type) is brutally murdered, signs go back to the murder and torture implemented by the Cuban government in the past. One explanation is that people who resent big money going to Cuba may be responsible. But as layers are removed there is much more to it. There is some good forensic work here. Hodges' engagement to the Italian woman continues to be an interesting subplot. Most consider the voluptuous woman to be involved with Hodges so she can get a green card.

Family Feud and Love

The Cuban singer Silvana Cuerto is in American tour and now she is rehearsing at a Las Vegas club owned by Estefan Meha for a show in Las Vegas. When Silvana and her manager Antonio Ficha go to her dressing room, they find her sister Marta Cuerto dead, after being beaten and tortured. There is no blood in the dressing room, indicating that Marta was killed somewhere else. Russell finds on the back of a poster the message "Silvana, you're the next" written in blood. Silvana tells Russel that Marta was responsible for the wardrobe of her shows and has never received any threats. But Antonio tells to Det. Crawford that Silvana has received many threats from the group Los Gusanos, formed by people exiled from Cuba led by Eddie Santos that wants Silvana back to Cuba. Dr. Robbins find that Marta was poisoned and that was the cause of death. Greg researches the Santos family tree and finds a feud between the Santos and Cuerto families. Further he discovers that Estefan is Eddie's nephew. Now the number of suspects to be investigated increases. Meanwhile, Hodges gets cold feet with the marriage with Elisabetta and thanks Morgan for her recommendation that helped immigration to approve Elisabetta's application.

"Exile" is an episode of "CSI" with the death of the sister of a famous Cuban singer that may be related to political issues. The leader of the exiled group becomes the prime suspect but along the investigation, the CSIs find a feud between families that might have caused the murder. However, when the case is solved, the reason is found and is absolutely unexpected by the viewers. My vote is seven.
