Avery Kristen Pohl (Lexi) would later portray the villainous Esme Prince on the long-running soap opera Hôpital central (1963), arguably her most well-known role. Like Lexi, Esme was a troubled girl who slipped drugs into people's drinks at parties, and attempted to frame another girl at her school for a serious crime. Pohl has acknowledged the similarities between the two characters in various interviews.
