The CW has released a dozen promotional photos from the April 2 spring premiere of Gossip Girl, titled "Con Heir." When the show returns, so does Chuck's uncle Jack (Desmond Harrington).

His trip, following the revelation that he helped save Chuck's life, doesn’t go exactly as planned, however. Elsewhere, Ivy finds an unlikely ally in William (Billy Baldwin) in her quest to be accepted on the UES.

Dan and Blair, as we know, attempt to consummate their relationship, but hit a roadblock, while Nate is hopeful a new investor will save his newspaper ... and cozies up to Lola, as we can see in the image below.

Will Dan and Blair overcome their bout of awkward sex and make their romantic connection last?

What really brings Jack back to the UES? Will Ivy succeed in strongarming her way to the top?

Will the secret of Lola's lineage leak? Do she and Nate make the hottest couple ever?

So many unanswered questions. Click to enlarge more photos from "Con Heir", then hit the comments to share your thoughts on them, as well as your predictions for April 2 and the rest of the fifth season!
