Taylor Dearden's character Dr. Mel performs a spinal tap on a child with measles in the season finale of The Pitt .

Dearden says she's "anxious" about the making of season one.

She hopes to return to the hospital for season two , which starts June 1 .

The actress says she hopes there will be more obvious stimming in season two .

She says she's not sure if the writers or producers know what happens from episode-to-episode scripts.

"It would be great if we knew everything, actually!" she says of her experience with neurodivergence.

Viewers have connected with Mel in a pretty profound way.

Mel and Dr. Langdon don’t get a final moment together in the finale, but their bond has been one of the sweetest parts of the show.

I think Mel thinks that next season she thinks that she’ll see him next, and the audience won't see him.
