“I’m actually really proud of this. We were done with production well before 2016. I am very aware of the trope from years past, and just my experience on other shows with heavy LGBT representation, but I didn’t know the trope would come to pass in such a horrible way in 2016. I didn’t think it’d be so front and center and an issue that we’d need to discuss given what was happening to other characters on other shows. So I’m just really proud because without being cynical about it, we had this planned since September. We knew we were going to shoot Nicole. We knew she was going to be wearing a bulletproof vest. We knew she was going to survive. It was a little bit of a play on the “Bury Your Gays” trope, but I feel like it’s taken on so much meaning given the year we’ve all had with television.

Since the very first time we introduced Nicole Haught I feel like fans have been tweeting at Kat Barrell, Dom and myself saying ‘please put Nicole in a bulletproof vest.’ I was like ‘did they get the script? How do they know that’s where we’re going?’ It’s been kind of funny in the background knowing that’s what we were going to do and people hopefully would see something like that.”

A couple of years before the news broke of the Flint water crisis, my husband and I went to Michigan for a friend’s wedding. We stayed with my brother in law and his family in Milan. Our nephew had a rare form of melanoma not caused by sun exposure removed from his finger when he was 3. And my brother in law and sister in law proceeded to tell us of several other people in their neighborhood who had various forms of cancer and other illnesses. It got weirder when after showering at my brother in law’s house, my husband and I both had rashes are showering. The water had a strong smell and after shaving my legs they felt like they were on fire. On the way to my friend’s wedding, my husband asked me if I thought there was something strange about the water in their town and if all the illnesses among their neighbors and them were connected. I agreed the quality of the water was not good and it was really strange how we both felt after showering there. But my brother in law kinda waved our concerns away when we tried to bring it up.
