In an interview with Screen Rant, Bailey talked about the background of his character and how he and his family came to land in the town of no exit: “Yeah. We’re at a literal crossroads in our life and our marriage. We had suffered a family tragedy that would be impossible for any family to ever truly get over the best one could hope for is to heal in some way and forgive and not hold blame for oneself or your partner. And we’re on a last trip that it’s inferred that maybe this is the last trip we’ll ever go on as a family, because we don’t know if we’ll make it.”
