It's been far too long, but Hart of Dixie finally returns with a new episode on January 23. How will The CW dramedy make the wait worthwhile for fans?

By introducing us to a whole new side of Zoe Hart, as Rachel Bilson's character does some digging on the winter premiere and learns she's a member of the Bluebell Belles via her father's legacy. As you try to imagine what sort of initiation Zoe will be put through at the hands of Lemon, check out the doctor in some very un-doctor-like attire below:

Meanwhile, Wade will try to get Lavon back on the dating scene during the episode, while George fights back against a chain store wanting to set up shop in town.
