Melinda Clarke is about to mess with Texas.

The former OC and Nikita star has booked a two-episode stint on Dallas Season 3, coming on board as Tracey McKay, one of Bobby Ewing’s girlfriends from the original version of this hit series.

Tracey was portrayed by Beth Toussaint during Seasons 12 and 13 of the show back in the 1980s.

Dallas returns on August 18 and Dallas Decoder broke this fun piece of casting news.

No word yet on what, exactly, brings Tracey back into the fold. But we’ve gotta imagine she’ll create some trouble for Bobby and Ann.
