“I tried to figure out these ways to get out of it with like, medical excuses,”She spoke. “I was just trying to think of something that sounded believable, like I had partial hip problems where I couldn’t turn. I came up with all these weird things but then [show creator Mike White] just said in [a] text, ‘Are you afraid?’ I was like, ‘Oh, Jesus, he’s onto me!'”
