“A Deadly Secret” Plot: Documentary filmmakers interview the LAPD on a complicated missing person’s case connected to John. Ryan Bergara and Shane Madej guest star.

Executive producer Alexi Hawley spoke with TV Insider about episode 14 and that stunning death. “To be honest, for me, the Malvado storyline really was there to show the trauma that Bailey had been through,” said Hawley. “It was really an emotional storyline for her about with Jason’s escape and him coming for her and having her have to face some things that she actually hadn’t admitted to herself about what Jason had put her through. And Malvado being sort of this sort of primal fear-based action that she took and the impact that that had on her storyline and her relationship with Nolan was the thing that was the most interesting about that to me. We purposely tried to keep what she revealed to Malvado as being ultimately just peripheral. He did find Jason on his own and all that kind of stuff.”

Hawley continued, “So that being said, yes, I think at the end of the day, the spark of fear that comes from him being back around again was important. But honestly for me, the story really just was about Bailey and Nolan for the most part.”
