Marlowe Viccellio

Marlowe Viccellio (later Marlowe Lassiter) is a recurring character from USA Network's Psych series. She originally debuted as a villainess in episode 6.03, "This Episode Sucks."

She was played by Kristy Swanson.

Episode 6.03
Marlowe Viccellio appeared in the beginning of the episode at a bar frequented by Carlton Lassiter, who notices Marlowe and becomes smitten by him. After engaging in a conversation that included Marlowe suddenly knowing Carlton's name and the subject of Clint Eastwood movies, Marlowe walks off, leaving Lassie waiting for her.

Unbeknownst to Lassie, Marlowe was on a villainous mission with her brother, Adrian, to abduct people with a rare O-negative blood type. Adrian suffered from a rare blood disorder that required constant transfusions, and after he was declared a liability by his health insurance company, the siblings decided to go on their mission. Lassie was Marlowe's first mark, as she was supposed to drug him and abduct him, but she backed out due to falling for him. Marlowe was encountered by Lassie at her home after Adrian attacked and killed a victim, as an Eternal Life necklace matching hers was at the scene. However, Marlowe still had her necklace, clearing her of the murder, and regarding her whereabouts, she stated to Lassie that she watched him wait for her.

Later on, though, the evil Marlowe robbed a blood bank along with her brother, with both of them donning black cloaks as part of their disguises. One of her black false nails was left at the scene and discovered by Shawn, Gus, and Jules, and it was Shawn finding a packet of O-negative blood in the villainess' freezer that revealed Marlowe as a participant in the robbery. A heartbroken Lassie handcuffed and arrested Marlowe, but during her incarceration, Adrian attacked another victim and nearly killed him. In the episode's climax, Marlowe phoned Lassie from prison and warned him about Adrian coming for him, which he does during the phone conversation. Lassie broke free from Adrian's capture and subdued him, and the episode ended with Lassie visiting Marlowe in prison, with Lassie telling his now-girlfriend that he would wait for her.

Aftermath
Marlowe served her time in prison, during which she helped out Lassie on a case later in the season in "Let's Doo Wop It Again." She was released in Season Seven's "Cirque Du Soul," and the couple became engaged later in the episode. Marlowe and Lassie got married later in that season in "Deez Nups," and she gave birth to their daughter, Lilly Nora Lassiter, in the eighth and final season.
