’s murder mystery party have found themselves transformed almost beyond recognition. While this has included Chloë Sevigny as a metalhead, and Judith Light and S. Epartha Merkerson as radical hippies-turned-doubly-radical-senior citizens, one transmutation stands above the rest: Episode 8’s “The Orpheus Syndrome” and the makeover given to actress Cherry Jones.

Dagenais recalled that during Jones’ on-set time that she was a “no-muss, no-fuss” woman game to bring life to Lyonne’s idea of the character.
