Karen Murphy

She's playing fast and loose, with 1930s period accuracy, of course, on purpose, in service of this theatrical heightened world.

Production design is Karen Murphy, who previously did Elvis and The Star is Born.

Together with Cher, they built a world that sits somewhere between a fever dream and a pulp paperback cover.

smoky 1930s noir glamour, constantly winking at its own artificiality.

But it's a spin, but there's still a lab.

So what happens when the lab belongs to someone else? This is why I really wanted the film in the episode is because Karen Murphy, the designer, starts with an old Gothic revival house.

And then imposes that she has this house and this is where she works.

So she makes a lab in there.
