The subplot in this episode in which a racist white woman calls the police on Lucca after first assuming that Lucca was her son's nanny and then deciding that Lucca had kidnapped him actually mirrored some experiences of Cush Jumbo. During an April 2019 interview in The Advocate, Jumbo told reporter Tracy E. Gilchrist, "All the stuff with Lucca being mistaken for the nanny happened to me a couple of times when I had my son. These are real things that happen to people.... I had no idea that the Kings were going to write that into the season, and they had no idea that it had happened to me."
