Helfer will play Naomi, who's attracted to Lightman (Tim Roth) despite being frustrated by the inability to hide anything from him. But when she calls on Lightman for protection from a violent ex-boyfriend, it's Lightman who begins to wonder if her beauty has impaired his lie-detecting skills.

Best known as Cylon Number Six on Battlestar, Helfer, 36, currently stars opposite Dylan McDermott on TNT's Dark Blue. She also recently guest-starred on USA's Burn Notice and the series premiere of Fox's Human Target.
