But at what cost?
This is clearly not accidental timing.
And it seemed like the toothache served as the perfect way to do that.

So we see John Dorie starting to doubt himself and doubt what he believes in.
IAN GOLDBERG:No, I don’t think he does.
And that was something that his dad believed.
And I think that Dorie’s dad is very much… Where morality exists and law and order and civility and goodness toward everyone.
And it’s one that I don’t even think he knows if he can live in it.
And perhaps he’s starting to look back on his father in a different way.
And it’s only in acting that out when it all falls apart that he starts to question everything.
I love the fact that at one point the episode feels almost likeZombie Apocalypse CSI.
Are we going to get an answer as to who killed Cameron and why?
IAN GOLDBERG: Yes.
I won’t tell you when, but, but you will find out.
Last week’s episode wasDie Hardin the zombie apocalypse.
And the genesis of this one from the beginning is we really wanted to tell John Dorie’sChinatown.
To be like, “wouldn’t it be cool to tellChinatownwith John Dorie?”
And everything kind of extrapolates from there.
Like, how would you do all of this?
So why does Janis ultimately confess to the crime?
ANDREW CHAMBLISS:I think it’s several things.
But, Janis is someone who has lived under Virginia for much longer than John has.
She lost her brother in an attempt to escape.
She knows that Virginia is going to have this rigged.
So, she is well aware that anything Dorie does is just going to not work.
It’s going to get her hurt, it’s going to get Dorie hurt.
So, her deciding to take the fall is really her trying to spare Dorie.
And as she tells him, she doesn’t have anyone.
So, it’s really kind of a noble sacrifice she’s making there.
But do you think he does the right thing in essentially killing Janis to save John?
Is that a good trade off?
IAN GOLDBERG:I thinkhebelieves it’s the right thing.
And it goes back to what he says to Alicia in episode 602.
Morgan gets in this car crash with the graffiti artists.
ANDREW CHAMBLISS:Correct.
They’re the only people we’ve seen from this group so far.
Will we meet more of their kind?
And, if so, when?
They’ve got something they want done and they’re not going to stop until it happens.
Okay, what can you say about whats coming up next?
IAN GOLDBERG:Episode 605 is a Dwight and Sherry episode, which we are really excited about.
And, I think what people can look forward to is seeing who Sherry has become now.
