'Revenge' Season 4 Episode 12 Spoilers: 'Madness' Brings Back Ben's Wife

'Revenge' Season 4 returned to the air on January fourth for its mid-season premiere with an episode entitled "Epitaph." Within the episode, viewers got the chance to see the new Hamptons' villain, Malcolm Black.

For those that don't know, Malcolm is a revenge-thirsty man, and he wants to hunt down every person involved in his daughter "disappearance." In Episode 11, Malcolm disguised himself as an agent looking for his colleague, Kate Taylor. When Chief Alvarez became suspicious of the fake FBI agent, Malcolm revealed himself and killed him.

As it stands, fans of the show are looking to find out what's going to happen in the next episode, Episode 12, entitled "Madness."

On that note, Sunil Nayar, the soap opera showrunner, revealed that in the upcoming episode, "You'll see what Emily and the others have to do to avoid [Malcolm's] threat'-- and it's not going to pretty."

Beyond that, David will finally "settle his debt." Remember in the premiere, when David told his daughter that he would kill Victoria? It looks like he will finally get the chance to exact his plan of vengeance.

In the meantime, Emily is helping Nolan get some revenge of his own. We don't know what Nolan plans to do yet, but it may have something to do with Victoria, Emily's arch-nemesis. Since last season, Victoria and Emily have been arguing over "who's to blame for what happened to Daniel," according to Nayar.

It's worth mentioning that showrunners promised that Nolan and Louise's friendship will take a "wonderful turn" in Season 4. Could there be a romance in the future of the hapless pair?

Also, Ben's mysterious ex-wife won't be abstract for much longer. She is rumored to return in the later episodes of Season 4 to join the rest of the vengeance-obsessed cast. "Madness" will air next Sunday, January 11th, at 10 pm EST.
