FAQ -

Q - Will anyone die in the Prodigal Son Universe?

A - Bad guys will die. I did kill Lee's Grandfather but he was 92 and died of old age and an original character but he is
the only good guy death in the whole story. All characters from the original series that are not evil will be safe.
That includes Joe & Carrie. Even those two are protected by the power of tv magic. Dotty will even still be alive in
Prodigal Son III. I plan on having her still picking up men at the checkout line of the grocery store at 98.

Q - Why did you name him Alex instead of Matthew as his first name?

A - Because I am a dork and the Hamilton soundtrack may have been in my playlist when I was writing some of this.
Originally I had Matty's name switched. When he was in hiding with Lee his name was Alex. But I thought the whole
story just read better when I switched it up. Leann's name was originally going to be Jenny. Would have saved me so
many typos if I had just gone with Jenny. But I think if Amanda thought Lee was dead she really would have named their
child after him.

Q. Who should play Matty in the movie of this that will never happen?

A. Look up the actor Charlie Rowe. He has the saddest most expressive brown eyes. I think he would be a good casting choice for Matty. He looks like he could be the son of Kate Jackson and Bruce Boxleitner but looks more like Kate Jackson as a boy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dk1oJrzqgug
