The Mentalist's Patrick Jane and Teresa Lisbon better watch their backs; sociopath Erika Flynn is back and looking to drive a wedge into the newly created Jisbon relationship.

Played by Firefly's Morena Baccarin, Entertainment Weekly reports that Flynn will reappear in episode 3 of season 7. Guilty of murdering her husband, Flynn first appeared in season 3's "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" and later escaped custody in Season 4's "War of the Roses."

When fans next see Erika, she will be overseas.

"Jane teams up with Erika Flynn in Beirut, Lebanon, where he and Lisbon have gone at the request of the CIA to take down an international weapons dealer," Entertainment Weekly reports. "Erika has agreed to help Jane and the CIA in exchange for a pardon on the murder charges she's still facing and the chance to return to the U.S. But as always Erika has agendas of her own, one of which may, or may not, be inserting herself between Jane and Lisbon."

Will this wily seductress wreck Jane (Simon Baker) and Lisbon's (Robin Tunney) relationship, or will the two investigators be wise enough to steer clear of her traps? Find out more when The Mentalist returns in 2015.
