The episode is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), sharing continuity with the films of the franchise. It was written and directed by showrunner Jac Schaeffer.
The episode follows Harkness (Kathryn Hahn) as she regains her identity after the events of WandaVision (2021), crosses paths with a mysterious Teen (Joe Locke), and confronts an old enemy. Apart from Hahn and Locke, Debra Jo Rupp and Aubrey Plaza also star in the episode. Filming took place in the Atlanta metropolitan area and in Los Angeles.
