An upcoming episode of CBS's CSI will delve into the past of Greg Sanders (Eric Szmanda) and introduce an influential man from his childhood.
"It turns out that as a young boy, Greg was into chess and had a mentor," reveals executive producer Carol Mendelsohn. Filling the mentor role is Emmy nominee Ron Glass, who played Det. Ron Harris on Mendelsohn's favorite '70s comedy, Barney Miller.
"A murder at a chess tournament will reunite Greg with his old mentor," Mendelsohn says. "And we'll learn that Greg was a chess wonder kid and could have been a champion, but for some reason gave it up."
