That was Vera, our writer. She found that song? No, at the very beginning of the show, I said, have you heard this song? And as soon as I heard it, I go, that's going to be what's playing as the house burns down. And then after I fell in love with it and after I edited it, someone said, you know, they use that very famously in Grey's Anatomy. And I was like, shit, I'm too attached.

We're just going with it. Did they?

We're just going with it. Did they?

We're just going with it. Did they?

Yeah. In all honesty, I probably would just because I don't, the 60 years I'd have remaining living with my wife when I let that dog burn would just not be worth it.

No.

No.

No.

In my mind's eye, I also always justified it. It's never said in the show, was like, if you were inside Jack's brain that night, it was the dog's barking. I'm looking at my little girl. She's begging me basically silently to get the dog. I can't let her down. But then as his brain starts thinking, can I make it downstairs? He goes, if I get down there, I can get the tapes.

And like, I, in my mind's eye, that's, it wasn't, it was like that, it got him thinking I could get down there and get the stuff. Like he's a vet, he's seen some shit as we'll learn. And he's like, I can get down there and get the tapes out of the house. And that was like, that was how I always justified it in my mind.

Also, I should say that lest anybody give us too much credit for having every single detail of the show mapped out, we did hit a point where we got up to the fire. And one of my writers came to me and was like, Dan, how did the whole family have childhood pictures all over the place? And we had a lot. And I was like, shit.
