Promo & Post Mortem Interview
How did you land on Sheila?
Most of their staff wanted it to be Logan Sanders (Brendan Hines) to get back at Mike, or there was a thought of Robert Zane (Wendell Pierce) or Laura Zane (Megan Gallagher), which didn’t seem feasible. If they found out Mike was a fraud they would threaten to expose him if he didn’t break up with their daughter rather than just expose him. But the big thing was that in the past, everyone who has found out (with slight exceptions), used the information for some sort of personal gain or they let him off the hook for some reason. I wanted there to be somebody that found out and handed him in because it was the right thing to do. Sheila works at Harvard, found out there was a guy pretending he went to Harvard Law and sent it in. That was the main reason; she wasn’t doing it out of malice or to get back at Mike or revenge. It was just like, this is her job and she did it. That’s why I wanted it to be Sheila.
Did you have a contingency plan for the episode if Rachael Harris wasn’t available?
No. When we first got the idea we checked into her availability and she was available. Had she not been we would have come up with a backup plan. Rachael, D.B. Woodside, who is on the same show [Lucifer] as Rachael -- a lot of these people have limited availability but they’re usually allowed to do at least one episode for us. They ended up being generous with us and giving us an extra episode with Rachael so that was nice.
She’ll be back?
Yes.
