In the episode, Soldier Boy arrives at the Crimson Countess' trailer (following a hilarious cameo by Seth Rogan) to get answers as to why he was tortured in Russia for so many years. It's revealed to the audience that it was his former girlfriend who betrayed him and disclosed his weakness to the Russians so that they could take him away and throw him in a cell for torture and testing. She reveals that she never loved him, and everyone else on the Payback team hated him. In response, he kills her with an energy blast. «We come to find out what happened in later episodes. But he wants to find out from her first why he ended up where he ended up,» Ackles said to press outlets. «To be honest, when we filmed that scene, it was a lot longer. I think they had to cut it down for time or whatever. But it got pretty heated, that conversation, and Soldier Boy gets really verbally explosive. They cut that out. And I think it probably serviced the scene better, because he does stay calm now, throughout the whole thing. And then it's just boom. I think it works just great the way they cut it together.»

Ackles went on to share how this scene will help shape Soldier Boy as a character down the line and his relationships with other
