Rachel might be headed for a major nervous breakdown in the upcoming episode of "Unreal" season 2.

Fans expect episode 6 to be a huge one for Rachel Goldberg, especially after she got struck by her ex-boyfriend Jeremy Caner in the previous episode. It may be recalled that the end of episode 5 saw Jeremy letting all the rage in his heart towards Rachel. As a result, Chet came in and fired him from the show.

Titled "Casualty," the upcoming episode marks the directorial debut of Shiri Appleby, who plays the role of Rachel. Appleby was happy to end up having a big story in the popular dating show. She is also looking forward to the challenge of acting and directing at the same time.

A recent interview with the actress revealed that what Jeremy did to her in the previous episode will have a great impact on Rachel's entire being. 

"She's kind of knocked over in a certain direction, and subsequent things continue to happen to her," the actress explained.

Appleby noted that the second half of the season will address questions about how far a person can go and how one gains control over his or her own life. All things considered, the actress said Rachel has to make up her mind as to how much of her true self she is going to show to Coleman Wasserman.

According to the actress, while Rachel is siding with Coleman's camp as a means of escape, she makes herself vulnerable to him.
