Zimbardo (1973) had intended that the experiment should run for a fortnight, but on the sixth day it was terminated. Christina Maslach, a recent Stanford Ph.D. brought in to conduct interviews with the guards and prisoners, strongly objected when she saw the prisoners being abused by the guards.
After a year in the role, Engen announced his exit from The Young and the Restless because of objections over his storyline, and Michael Muhney was recast in the role. Controversy arose two weeks after Muhney's debut when Adam seduced male character Rafe Torres (Yani Gellman).
Rafe sings two traditional folk songs, Look Down That Lonesome Road and New River Train. The episode marks the final appearances of Mayor Stoner, played by Parley Baer and Rafe Hollister played by Jack Prince. Rafe's kitchen is actually the same set used for Aunt Bee's.
