'Hart of Dixie' Season 4 Premiere Synopsis & Photos Are All About Zade

Say it with me, people — Hart of Dixie Season 4 is premiering early. Which is really the greatest gift any of us Bluebell fans could've hoped for from The CW this holiday season. The Rachel Bilson-starring series was originally supposed to premiere in January 2015, but it's been confirmed that Hart of Dixie Season 4 will premiere on Dec. 15. If you were thinking that this news couldn't possibly get any better, it just did. The CW has released the Season 4 premiere synopsis and episode stills and it looks like Zade will get a reunion on Hart of Dixie .

The CW released nine photos from the Season 4 premiere, titled "Kablang," and, unsurprisingly, seven of them feature Zoe and Wade at various points of reunion. The synopsis reveals that Wade, obviously, decided to stay in Bluebell, but Zoe's not having an easy time getting him to embrace her love. So, how will it go? Based on the photos, we've got some predictions.

Grandma Betty is Back

The premiere’s synopsis, surprisingly, mentions Brick. Of all characters, I feel like Brick is the least important, but someone from his past is returning in the premiere. And, no, it won’t be Grandma Betty — she’s a part of the present and she’s probably overseeing the repairs on Fancies. It seems possible that maybe Brick’s ex-wife, Lemon and Magnolia’s mother, might return. Mostly because there’s really no one else from Brick’s past that the series has mentioned before.

Lemon's Also Back From Her Cruise

And it doesn’t look like she had a great time. Or, perhaps, her look of disgust is directed at Lavon or George both of whom, according to the synopsis, are still at odds because they both believe they’re in love with her. I mean, neither one is right for her — but whoever brought her that basket with a bunch of pickles seriously needs to reevaluate their life.

Zade Domestic Bliss?

So, Zoe’s all about the romantic gestures and apparently during hiatus, she learned to cook. (Remember the gumbo disaster?) Zoe’s clearly trying to capture all of that Zade magic that happened over breakfasts in Lavon’s kitchen during Season 1.

Just Kidding, Things Are Still Kind of Weird

They’re still going to have to have THAT talk though and considering Wade’s uncomfortable look here, it’s just going to weird. Even if Zoe’s learned how to fry bacon.

Possibly Really Weird

And Zoe will obviously tell him again how much she loves him and assure him that she’s going to fight for Zade for the remaining nine episodes in Season 4.

But They'll Work It Out

Well, sort of. Zoe might be pushing this way too hard. Any time Zade tried to go on a “real” date during their relationship, it got all screwed up. Wade can’t handle that kind of pressure and this photo clearly shows that he hasn’t grown out of that.

Even If They're Interrupted

It’s not going to take long for Lavon and George’s tension to spill over onto everyone else in Bluebell. If they’re not friends, they’re both going to be running to Wade and Zoe, respectively, to complain about their fight. And, judging by Zoe and Wade’s expressions, someone’s about to admit out loud that they think they’re still in love with Lemon.

And Then 'HoD' Fans Will Have Major Deja Vu

If Season 4 is just an homage to the glory days of Zade, I will be absolutely satisfied. And, clearly, Zoe is trying to remind Wade of the crazy chemistry that brought them together in the first place.

Like, Very Major Deja Vu

Does anyone else feel like they’ve seen this scene before? Well, this scene has happened before, many times, over the course of Dixie’s three seasons. And the great thing about that is that Hart of Dixie obviously knows what we all love about it and, even if this is a farewell season, they’re not changing a thing.
