Correction: He doesn't call her Anne; he calls her "Em," short for Emily. He does this consistently throughout the series.

The Interrogation - S1-E6

Corrected entry: Emily is entering the office to pick up Tom and Aaron for the dinner, she's wearing a black dress and her hair is pinned up. In a following scene, when Emily and Aaron are talking to MacLeish, Emily is suddenly wearing a blazer and her hairstyle is completely different. (00:02:10 - 00:04:35)

Correction: Her hairstyle is exactly the same, pinned up. And she's not wearing a blazer, just a thin shrug, which would be easy to put on given the time they had.

Answer: It's a recurring theme on the show. Characters come and go depending on the storyline. General Cochrane, Tyler Richmond, Abe Leonard, etc.

Answer: Apparently the characters were eliminated due to cost-cutting measures by Netflix and after salary negotiations with the actors failed.

Oh. That makes the most sense. I also forgot to mention Kirkman's brother.
