“We performed with the concept in a single season the place he takes extra of a command within the HAVOC [control] room and attempting to really feel what that may really feel like. Personally, for me to place the character in that state of affairs, I didn’t really feel that it made sense. I believe it might be extra awkward and a little bit bit extra fish out of water,” David advised Selection. “I imply, Grasp Chief wouldn’t actually be a fish out of water, however for that state of affairs it’d be boring. The actual essence of the man is, he would considerably break the principles. Within the open sequence of the pilot, he’d go to the opposite room, get the information, leap off and virtually be killed. He at all times put himself in that state of affairs and made a narrowing escape. That’s who he’s, and I’m glad that we caught with that.”
“So far as discussing if he would really be killed, it crossed my thoughts on the finish of Season 4, the place I used to be similar to, ‘Possibly we must always simply kill him off, and finish it,’” he continued. “As a result of it made sense to not full that different traumatic occasion that these guys endure from, I believe I’d be doing the position an injustice [if we had killed him].”

“Going into the season, earlier than the writers strike, I had proclaimed that this may be it for me. It wasn’t one thing that was thrown upon us,” he stated. “For me, it was fairly well-known, and due to this storyline and analyzing that third form of trauma [after post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury], I knew I used to be doing the character justice.”
