Nick is back on The Secret Circle. Viewers learned this shocking fact at the conclusion of last week's "Traitor."

But what will that actually mean for the coven, specifically brother Jake?

"Jake's going to go on an emotional roller coaster in this next episode," Chris Zylka tells TV Guide of this evening's "Prom." "Typical Jake, he tries to cover up his real emotions. I mean, what would you do if your dead brother came back?"

Good question. We'll need to get back to you on it.

Zylka adds that Nick is now "a lot more powerful" than before his death at the hands of Charles. How come? That's a "surprise," the actor teases.

Fair enough. What about The Secret Circle season finale?

"There's tons of death," Zylka says of the May 10 installment, titled "Family. "It's a pretty epic episode... with how strong the cliffhangers are, I think people are going to be more in awe of what happens next, then in awe of who just died."

How... intriguing. Read the full interview with Zylka now at TV Guide.
