certain design principles to the university¶s talented mechanic,Peter Desaga, and asked him to construct a prototype. By thetime the building opened early in 1855, Desaga had made fifty of these devices for X¶s students. X published a description twoyears later, and many of his colleagues soon adopted the design.Identify X and his device.

` This is an excerpt of an episode from CSI, im not going to tell you when it was aired.

` It features the return of a very popular character, the synopsis is as such.

`

` The character ___X___, played by ___Y___, is a troubled teen worried about his brother.

`

` It begins with __Y__ warning Stokes nto toe enter his house as it may be booby trapped (the irony of this phrasechosen will come to light when you crack the question). Stokes enters either ways, finds out that its a bomb, gets

extracted by CSI squad, & is grateful to __Y__.

`

` Although Stokes tries to interrogate __Y__ about the attempted house bombing, the teen remains tight-lipped

about who the perpetrator is, and he's eventually picked up by his legal guardian. Soon after, the CSIs pay a visitto __Y__'s guardian, only to find him dead inside his work warehouse. Unfortunately, beneath his dead body is adevice that traps Stokes and his team inside the building as a bomb surrounded by lasers ticks away.

`

` Greg and Sara find a surveillance video of __Y__ buying bomb-making supplies with an accomplice: TimothyJohnson, an Explosive Ordnance Disposal Specialist who was dishonorably discharged from the Army severalyears ago. Nick realizes that __Y__ has been playing him, and Sara points out that he, Catherine and Vartannwere the ones who killed __Y__s brother²and they were the ones trapped in the booby-trapped building. Nick

and Greg work to track __Y__ by calling his cellphone, and they are able to locate his general area. The cops setup a roadblock and stop the van containing __Y__ and Johnson as they try to escape to California. Johnsonwould rather give up than die, but Jason has other ideas.

`

` He yells that Johnson has a bomb on his body, and during the momentary confusion, __Y__ pulls out a gun andshoots one of the cops . Nick and the others return fire, killing __Y__ in a hail of bullets, as his corpse floats like afeather before gracing the sweet ground.

` Released as it was in the height of the popularity of punk rock,the song was misinterpreted (as it is often is to this day) as asong about excess as its title and chorus would suggest.
