    Unfortunately his behavior continued on set. Creepy dude.

    But his character wasn’t meant to be creepy, and I need to remember that from time to time.

        Context fwiw:

        My opinions: Was he called out for exposing himself and being incredibly inappropriate? Yes.

        Has he apologized and faced consequences? Yes, multiple times, but maybe not enough for some.

        Is he a sexual predator? Probably Not.
