Terry has paranoid schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
David Wayne Young had originally written the short a few years prior. Tyler W. Moore later approached him about directing a short film of his choice after the completion of Another Day Colder (2017). Moore was asked to do a re-write that streamlined the story and it was put in production as a secondary project.
The voice recordings were done entirely in the makeshift studio in the apartment most of the members of Illumination Cinema were living in at the time. This was the first time all of the characters were recorded in the same place.
