‘CSI’ Season 12 Episode 18 Preview: ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and a Surprise Visit

“CSI: Crime Scene Investigation” will have its own take on one famous fairytale in next week’s episode. Russell can’t help reciting a line from “Alice in Wonderland” when he and his team are called to investigate a robbery-homicide at a wedding, which picks the story written by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson as its theme.

While the CSI team has little to work with to find a killer, Hodges is surprised by his mother’s visit to the town and his workplace. To get his meddlesome mom off his back, he wants her to believe that he is engaged to Morgan.

Hodges’ lie leads to him and Olivia heading to a jewelry store to shop for engagement rings. Things get worse when they are kidnapped by robbers and tossed into the back of an ambulance. Dishing on the scene, Wallace Langham said, “There are guns, kidnapping, car chases and a police rescue. I’m stuck in a ’70s TV show!”

“Malice in Wonderland” will air Wednesday, March 21 at 10/9c on CBS. Jaclyn Smith will guest star as Hodges’ mother.

In related news, it has been announced that “CSI” will return with a new season since it’s included in 15 series which got renewal for 2012-2013 season.
