Behind the Scenes
- Tormé wrote in Arturo's illness, as he knew Davies was unhappy with the direction of the show and could thus be used to write his character out if he wanted to leave, noting that they would find a means of curing it if Davies's situation changed. While the character was indeed written out, the illness story arc, despite being carried for several episodes, never came to fruition.
