You just can't kill those Homeland villains.
With Navid Negahban headed to CSI, TV Line now confirms that Zuleikha Robinson - who has also appeared on Lost and Rome - will stop by an episode of The Mentalist Season 5.
The actress will portray a scientist named Sonia Kidd, someone who specializes in the biological roots of murder and who interacts with Jane, Lisbon and company when one of her best students turns up dead.
Look for her to be especially intrigued by Patrick Jane and his methods. But, then again, who isn't it?!?
