The Hunger Artist is the twenty-third (and last) episode from the second series of the popular American crime drama CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, which is set in Las Vegas, Nevada.
[edit] Plot Summary
A mutilated woman is found dead in a shopping trolley in a part of town usually associated with homeless people. However, the victim does not seem to be homeless herself and the team must figure out who she is and how she came to be where she was found.
[edit] Trivia
- The title is a reference to Franz Kafka's A Hunger Artist, which is also thematically similar.
- Unlike most CSI episodes, this only focused on a single crime.
- This episode starred two actors who would later go on to star in cult science fiction shows: Mark Sheppard (Rod Darling) would go on to play Badger in Firefly, and Tricia Helfer (Ashleigh James) would go on to play Number Six in Battlestar Galactica. Sheppard would later play a recurring role at the end of the third season of Battlestar Galactica, including a scene opposite Helfer in the episode The Son Also Rises.
