"The Rise & Fall of Joan Girardi" -- After Joan saves a fellow student's life, she becomes uncomfortable when that formerly mean-spirited student -- and the rest of Arcadia -- embraces her as a hero, on JOAN OF ARCADIA, Friday, Jan. 28 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Martha Mitchell directed the episode written by Lindsay Sturman.

Actress and pop music star Hilary Duff ("Cinderella Story," "Raise Your Voice") guest stars.

After Joan pulls catty classmate Dylan (Duff) from the path of a speeding SUV, a seemingly changed Dylan ditches her popular friends and makes attempts to befriend Joan. Meanwhile, after writing a widely read article on Joan's act of heroism, Kevin convinces Joan to let him interview her for their local television station.
