Scott Storms The CASTLE!

THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS’ Melody Thomas Scott (Nikki) has a new role to play: The Emmy nominee will guest star on the January 3 episode of ABC’s hit crime drama, CASTLE. In the episode titled “Nikki Heat” — which is, coincidentally, the name of the main character in Rick Castle’s novel — Scott appears as Tonya Wellington, a wealthy former client of the murder victim, a well-known matchmaker. Although she found her husband through the yenta, Mrs. Wellington is now divorcing the man she’s accused of cheating on her — and is one of the suspects who gets interrogated about the killing! CASTLE airs Mondays at 10 p.m. EST on ABC.
