With the ninth season finale of CSI bearing down on fans, many are wondering what sort of cliffhanger the drama will deliver.

To find out, TV Guide talked to actor Wallace Langham, who plays David Hodges on the series. He said the self-contained episode will feature Laurence Fishburne's Raymond Langston in danger:

"You see him put into some situations that are new for him, as far as being out in the field and having to deal with perpetrators."

What about Hodges? He gets to stay in the lab, as usual.
