        My dad worked in the art department for ‘In the Heat of the Night’. I was an extra on one of the extra long season finales. My dad took me to the police station set and he was there being a racist/mysogynistic fuck.

            I mean it could have been a momentary thing. Could have just been pissed at something. This was in the south though. So who knows.
