The Shamless vet directed the episode starring Julia Garner titled, “So He Looked Like Dad. It Was Just Dinner, Right?” “All the directors actually wrote their episodes except mine,” said Rossum, referring to writer Audrey Wells, who died in October 2018 at age 58. “The writer got sick and sadly passed away before we started shooting, so I was kind of the fill-in, and it was the greatest honor of my life.”
