    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The location where Deborah and Ava get out of the bus and argue is where the 2017 Las Vegas shooting occurred.
    • Goofs
      When Debra and the writing team go to the race track, they are supposed to be at the "Las Vegas Speedway" in Las Vegas, Nevada. The sequence was actually filmed at the now-defunct Irwindale Speedway in Irwindale, California. While "Las Vegas Speedway" is painted on the wall in the opening shot, this was obviously added by the production crew. The actual name of the racetrack is ("Irwindale Speedway") is clearly visible in the background of several shots.
    • Quotes

      Rob: You know Stacey from HR.

      Stacey: Hi, ladies. Well, there were many reports about highly inappropriate behavior on your writers' retreat. Hired and fired a writer multiple times, offered a suitcase full of illegal substances, withheld food and water. You took the writers to a nude strip club.

      Deborah Vance: [screaming at Ava] Don't they know what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas?

      Stacey: Well, apparently not.

      Deborah Vance: Who told? I'm gonna beat their ass.
