He doesn’t know at the time, but she’s sixteen. She’s also the daughter of the man that his ex-girlfriend Karen [Natascha McElhone] is living with. So it’s just wrong on every level. When we started the show, I said, “I don’t think this guy lies about anything.” He usually tells the truth because he doesn’t care about what people think of him. But there is this one lie that he’s been telling, and he’s been withholding this truth for three years. During the last episode of Season 3 the s**t hits the fan. He’s got to tell Karen the truth that he was with this under aged woman, Mia. The cops come to break up a fight after the big revelation. He ends up taking a swing at a police officer and he’s put in jail overnight.

But we always come back to the fact that it’s a show with a sentimental heart. It’s about this relationship between Hank and Karen and their daughter. Not that you should watch it with your family, but Californication is a show about a family. So in Season 4 we are taking it to this new level. We are in a high-risk legal situation, which we’ve never been in before.

And you didn’t panic because you thought, there’s twenty-five of them, they can’t all be winners; it’s just not humanly possible. But when there are twelve, you really want them all to be winners; you don’t want to go easy on one of them. And it’s tough when you’re writing an arc to the season, some shows have to set stuff up, and some shows deliver on that stuff. Obviously the shows that deliver on it are going to have the advantage because s**t happens in them. S**t is just being set up in the other ones. So you want all twelve to be stand-alone and be really good, and that’s a trick. And that’s something we do.

Every year we’ve had great guest stars and their characters have led us into amazing stories. This year we’re let into the world of Hollywood with the movie being made of Hank’s book, whereas last year we were in the world of academia.
