"The Class Visits A Bad Neighborhood" -- When Ethan's date confesses that she has always had a crush on Kat, he imagines one of his biggest fantasies coming true, on THE CLASS, Monday, Jan. 8 (8:30-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

Jaime King ("Sin City," "Pearl Harbor") guest stars in a recurring role as Palmer, a former art school classmate of Kat's, now living in her building. Two-time Emmy Award nominee Sara Gilbert guest stars in a recurring role as Fern, Richie's wife.

As his relationship with Palmer progresses, Ethan decides to send her a giant flower arrangement to show his affection. When Palmer seems turned off by the gesture, Kat takes credit for the flowers to help Ethan out, which prompts Palmer to profess that she's always had a crush on Kat. Meanwhile, Lina, Nicole and Duncan visit Richie's rough neighborhood to help him collect things from his apartment, and the group has an unfortunate run in with Fern and a gun.
