Episode Story: A Fallen Supermodel’s Return Turns Deadly
This episode centers on a glamorous but treacherous reunion of former supermodels. The plot begins when a fallen supermodel makes her dramatic return to New York, a move that stirs up old memories and long-hidden resentments among her peers.
Elsbeth must step into this unfamiliar world of 1990s fashion to investigate a shocking murder linked to the supermodels’ gathering. She has to navigate a complicated web of old grudges, lies, and deceit to find the truth. The case explores themes of aging, public reputation, and the intense rivalries that can last for decades. The episode will follow the show’s familiar “howcatchem” format, focusing on how Elsbeth catches the killer rather than just who did it.
Meet the Guest Star: Jaime Pressly Joins the Case
A key part of this episode is the introduction of a major guest star. Jaime Pressly will appear in “Glamazons,” playing the central role of the fallen supermodel whose return to New York sparks the unfolding mystery.
Pressly’s character reconnects with former friends and enemies during a reunion event, which sets off the chain of events leading to murder.
Her character is described as being at the heart of the dangerous mystery, forcing Elsbeth to untangle a complicated past. This casting continues the show’s tradition of featuring well-known actors in memorable guest roles, which has included names like Stephen Colbert, Lana Condor, and Jane Krakowski in past episodes.

Wagner, Elsbeth’s police precinct contact. The main supporting cast also includes Daniel K. Isaac as Lieutenant Steve Connor and Britne Oldford as Detective Nina Taylor.

What Happened in the Previous Episode (Season 3, Episode 8)?
The previous episode, titled “Basket Case,” saw Elsbeth investigating the murder of a high school athletic director named Dave Coppins. The case involved a high-profile basketball coach, played by Sam McMurray, and his much younger girlfriend, played by Lana Condor.
Elsbeth used her sharp eye for detail to notice that the victim had frostbite, indicating he was in an ice bath when killed. Despite initial suspicions pointing to the girlfriend, Elsbeth discovered a wiretapping device in the locker room. She ultimately proved the coach was the murderer, using the device to eavesdrop and learning the victim was spreading damaging rumors about him. This case mirrored real-life tabloid stories, which fans noted on social media.
