Justine Lupe is reflecting on one of her crappier moments on set.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the Succession star recalled an unfortunate incident on set as her Nobody Wants This costars Timothy Simons and Jackie Tohn egged her on. “I told a story about me s—tting my pants on set and s—tting into my dress and then pulling it up onto my body. And that’s when I realized I had pooped in my dress,” Lupe recalled or a previous interview.

Simons prompted an important piece of context. “And we found out after — tell them who it was with,” he said.

Lupe responded, “Kathy Bates,” thus revealing that the incident must have occurred on the set of the short-lived legal drama Harry’s Law, on which she starred alongside the Misery actress in 2012. “After they called cut on the last interview. She looked over at us and she goes ‘And that was with Kathy Bates’ and I’m like, ‘You didn’t mention that?!’,” Tohn added.

Lupe didn’t care for Tohn’s misrepresentation of the facts. “It wasn’t in front of Kathy, it was in my trailer,” she said.

Tohn dug in deeper, joking, “If Kathy Bates was holding my hand, while I s— my pants, I have to say, I’d be embarrassed!”

Nobody Wants This stars Kristen Bell as sex-positive podcaster Joanne and Adam Brody as hot rabbi Noah, who fall in love as they grapple with their cultural and familial differences. Lupe plays Joanna’s disapproving sister and pod cohost Morgan, while Simons plays Noah’s goofy brother Sasha, and Tohn plays Sasha’s stern wife Esther.

Series creator Erin Foster, who based the show on her real-life conversion to Judaism, told EW that her actual sister actually got along with her real future husband. To enhance the tension at the show’s core, she added a layer of disagreement between the fictionalized sisters. “I loved the idea that Morgan feels threatened by Joanne getting into a serious relationship,” she said. “I do think that in real life when two people are stunted or unable to find love, and then one person does find a healthy relationship, then the other person feels really left behind by that. And I’ve had that in friendships before — when people settled down before me, it felt really threatening when they could figure it out before I could.”

Nobody Wants This is now streaming on Netflix.
