When Armand Assante returns to Chuck on this fall's fourth episode, he won't come back alone.

As Premier Alejandro Goya, Assante will be lucky enough to have Tia Texada on his arm. The 38-year-old actress, who recurs as Shay on ABC Family's Huge, will portray Goya's wife on the NBC hit, a woman named Hortencia.

The character will be in possession of a key secret and we'll meet her when Chuck and company visit the Premier's island in his native Costa Gravas.
