The team is trying to locate Delko, who (in the previous season finale) was in a car accident in the Everglades and is now walking around covered in blood not knowing where he should go. After a big search, they finally manage to find him and get him to a hospital, where he goes in a coma. Meanwhile, Horatio flashes back 12 years to 1997 to recall how his team first met. He didn't have his sunglasses, Delko wasn't working as a CSI, "CSI" was called Special Investigations Unit, Calleigh was an intern and Frank had hair.
