As you may recall, earlier this month I reported that episode 5.02 would be entitled, “The Beyond of the Bubble Gum.” However that title has now changed to “Authority Always Wins.”
There is a casting call included with this change and includes the following roles, reoccurring and episode specific:
[KIBWE] Early 40s to early 60s. A slender African gentleman vampire, he’s an Authority council member who believes rehabilitation for prisoners over stricter punishment…STRONG RECURRING
[ROSALYN HARRIS] 40s to 60s. A Texas vampire with “hair high enough to interfere with air traffic,” she’s an Authority council member with a homespun wisdom-spouting mouth and a firm hand…RECURRING
[ALEXANDER] 9 years old. An impetuous young vampire who was turned at the age of 9, he’s an Authority council member who loves cigarettes and razzing his fellow council members…RECURRING
[DIETER BRAUN] 40s to 50s. Mature and self-possessed, calm and authoritative, with a piercing gaze, this vampire of average build is nevertheless extremely intimidating, and he uses innovative methods to torture a prisoner during an interrogation…
[CHRISTINE VAN HEUSEN] Late 20s to 30s. Seen on TV, she’s a cute brunette newscaster for a CNN-type program who conducts a high-profile, in-depth interview…1 speech & 5 lines, 2 scenes
[CLERK] 30s to 40s. The kind of guy who buys pork rinds, he lives in a trailer and works at the Stake House, a home protection store that sells weapons designed to hurt vampires…3 speeches & 3 lines, 1 scene
[BOY] 14, determined, hurt, and angry, he punches Jason in the face for sleeping with his mom and breaking up his parents…6 lines, 1 scene

[MAN] 30s to 40s. Seen in flashback to 1905 in San Francisco, this pleasant, well-dressed, seemingly non-threatening man is actually quite dangerous…2 lines, 1 scene
In this we can see that we’ll be meeting members of the omonous Authority we’ve heard about throughout the series including a boy vampire who was turned at the age of nine. It also reveals that there will be a flashback to San Francisco in 1905! My hometown!
