The four people on the right departed the show by Season 5. The woman next to Ruth is former co-showrunner Ryan Kate Selzer.

Bullshit. Ruth can't speak or defend herself due to the NDA.

Oh, let's not forget co-creator Hagi Levi and co-showrunner Ryan Kate Selzer also left the show under Sarah's watch. Toxic environment alright.

She wanted Alison brutally raped then murdered? Damn. Feminist my ass.

I'm sure Alison was a decent nurse before the Gabriel tragedy.

Just watched His Dark Materials Episode 1. Ruth Wilson was damn good in it.

Well, Martin did work at the Lockhart Ranch in summer of the first season and nearly lost one of the horses in Episode 6.

I think you missed the context. She said nobody pays for THEIR crimes. Noah didn't kill Scotty. So no, Helen didn't serve prison time.

I don't know if it was forshawing or intentional or not, but remember the Episode in Season 4 where Alison goes to LA, she's on the plane, and that guy sitting next to her harrassed her? He started caressing her knee and everything, it was creepy. And of course Alison is the one getting arrested for throwing wine on him.

Sarah Treem said nobody on the show pays for their crimes. Which is actually true when you think about it. Cole/drug dealing, Helen/Scotty murder, Luisa/undocumented, Cole/arson, Ben/Alison's murder....all didn't get arrested or brought to justice.

This really sounds similar to Sarah's PR answer "Alison's character ran it's course" comment regarding Ruth's exit. https://tvline.com/2019/11/04/the-affair-series-finale-joshua-jackson-cole-lockhart-season-5/

I thought Det. Jefferies said Ben's alibi was that he was drinking at a bar then went to a AA meeting?

Just read Deadline's interview with Sarah Treem. What she said regarding Ben getting away with murder is actually true. She said nobody pays for their crimes on this show. - Cole and his brothers were never arrested for dealing coke. - Helen/Alison were never arrested for taking part in Scotty's death. - Ben was never arrested for Alison's murder. - Luisa was never deported for being undocumented.

Ruth wanted to leave the show (before Season 4 was written) for unspecified reasons (Showtime made her sign a NDA), so they wrote her off accordingly.

Eddie told Joanie that he worked in construction while in high school and he helped renovate and restore The Lobster Roll.
