NEW YORK - August 2, 2012 - Brian J. Smith (Stargate Universe) and Dee Wallace-Stone (E.T.) will heat up the Warehouse when they guest star in the upcoming Monday, August 6 episode of Syfy's hit series Warehouse 13.

In the episode, Smith plays "Jesse," a small-time thief who accidentally comes into possession of a dangerous weather-controlling artifact after robbing a safe house belonging to the late Walter Sykes.

Wallace's character is "Mrs. Garner," a hospital administrator who gets in the way of Jesse's plans.

Smith and Wallace join season four guest stars Laura Innes, Jeri Ryan, Brent Spiner, Sam Huntington, Lindsay Wagner, Kate Mulgrew, and Rene Auberjonois, among others.

Warehouse 13 follows a team of government agents who work at a massive, top-secret storage facility in windswept South Dakota which houses every strange artifact, mysterious relic, fantastical object and preternatural souvenir ever collected by the U.S. government. The Warehouse's caretaker Artie Nielsen (Saul Rubinek) charges Pete Lattimer (Eddie McClintock), Myka Bering (Joanne Kelly), Claudia Donovan (Allison Scagliotti) and Steve Jinks (Aaron Ashmore) with chasing down reports of supernatural and paranormal activity in search of new objects to cache at the Warehouse, as well as helping him to control the Warehouse itself.
