Hilarie Burton Accuses One Tree Hill Boss of This “Creepy”

Hilarie Burton is reflecting on a particularly uncomfortable One Tree Hill scene.

While recapping the season five episode “Echoes, Silence, Patience and Grace,” the actress accused an unnamed boss—who she only referred to as “the worst” and “Voldemort,” the villain from the Harry Potter series—of purposefully inserting himself into a scene when the two were no longer talking to each other outside of work.

“I wasn’t speaking to him in real life,” Burton recounted on the Aug. 20 installment Drama Queens podcast, which she co-hosts with former castmates Sophia Bush and Bethany Joy Lenz, “and so he wrote himself into the episode of me hugging him.”

Lenz immediately called the behavior “so psychotic,” while a flabbergasted Bush asked, “Can you guys imagine Shonda Rhimes or Aaron Sorkin casting themselves on their own show?”

Though Burton did not identify the boss by name, the episode in question was written by One Tree Hill creator Mark Schwahn, who also appeared in a scene with the star as record store owner Max.

In the scene, Hilarie’s character embraces Max before a heart-to-heart conversation, which ends with her warmly holding his hand.
