News broke last week that Heather Locklear will be returning to Melrose Place this fall, but if having to wait until August to see the bitch return has gotten you down, never fear, this week's Melrose Place has something for you. Original cast member Josie Bissett will reprise her role as Jane Andrews Mancini, the sister to the now dead Sydney. And it seems that Jane is quite the spunky little one these days as she'll take control of the building that she has inherited from Sydney. She'll also use her super-bitch status to convince Ella (Katie Cassidy) to allow her to dress one of her up-and-coming clients in a Jane Mancini original design for an upcoming movie premiere. And if you think that sounds exciting, its only the beginning. You can read all of the details below in the official press release from The CW.
ORIGINAL CAST MEMBER JOSIE BISSETT REPRISES HER ROLE AS JANE ANDREWS MANCINI — Jane Mancini (guest star Josie Bissett), Sydney’s (Laura Leighton) sister, comes to Melrose Place and announces that she inherited the building from Sydney. Jane threatens to show incriminating emails Ella (Katie Cassidy) sent to Sydney to the police unless Ella allows her to dress one of her up-and-coming clients for a movie premiere in a Jane Mancini original design. Desperate, Ella turns to David (Shaun Sipos) for help. Detective Rodriguez (guest star Nicholas Gonzalez) shows up at Violet’s (Ashlee Simpson-Wentz) apartment asking questions about her connection to Sydney, but she flees though the window. Lauren (Stephanie Jacobsen) meets a John (guest star Sam Page) at the hotel bar after being stood up by Toby (guest star Adam Kaufman) and decides to take her new side job to the next level. However, upon leaving the hotel, Lauren is stopped by Wendi (guest star Kelly Carlson, “Nip/Tuck”), a madam who has a deal with the hotel, who threatens Lauren if she ever sees her in there again. Fred Toye directed the episode written by Daniel Thomsen Dries.
