A source has said, "The producers are still going back and forth on what they want to do and clearing music for his tribute," according to ShowBizSpy.

"The meetings are lengthy and Lea is a part of them to make sure everything is just right. When they start filming the PSAs and the third episode, that is going to be a mess. After they film that episode they are going to go on a break to recharge."
"It's still touch and go for all involved. Tears can and will happen at anytime."
