>>>Have you ever noticed when a major character is not written into a storyline they are mysteriously missing from important events?<<<
I am assuming this was a matter of practicality. If a major character is not written into an episode, why pay him/her for what is essentially a bit or walk-on part? Or perhaps their contracts specified a certain number of episodes per season. Maybe someone else on the digest has more definite knowledge.
