Activity Overview
When an ATF officer apparently commits suicide in her house, the sound of the gunshot was recorded from multiple sources, creating an "acoustic fingerprint" of the room and its contents. Charlie recreates this acoustic fingerprint, and by understanding how bats "see" using sonar, he is able to determine that something is missing from the room.
