"Sabrina the Teenage Witch" alum Caroline Rhea will pop up on "The Grinder" in the show within the show, but this time instead of it being "The Grinder", the hit legal drama starring Dean Sanderson (Lowe), she’ll appear in a series from early in Dean’s career: the multi-camera sitcom "Fran of the House".

In this episode of "Fran of the House", Fran calls the “hot mechanic” (played by Dean) to fix the heater in her home, as her house has gotten so cold, her wine has frozen. Her reasoning for calling a car mechanic for a home problem is simple: He’s hot, and cars have heaters as well, so he should be able to fix it.

The flashback-heavy episode — which is slated to air March 15 on Fox — features "The Office's" Jenna Fischer as Dean’s (now ex-)fiancée, Kelly, and American Pie star Chris Klein as Dean’s acting buddy Benji.
