In the Sept. 26 premiere, Joel and Julia invite Mer over for dinner and she inadvertently makes Julia feel self-conscious about being a stay-at-home mom. Julia views her as a bit of a threat, even though she isn’t consciously trying to be.
In addition to playing Penny on Lost, Walger’s credits include ABC’s FlashForward and USA Network’s Common Law.
