Sunday's episode opened with a graphic remembering Dane; and later displayed the names of the three men who died in the four years since the end of the show's second season in early 2022.
Dane's death was the most recent, as he passed away at 53 this past February 19 after battling amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (which is also referred to as Lou Gehrig’s disease).
The actor - who played the role of Cal Jacobs on 21 episodes of the popular series - publicly spoke about his diagnosis for the first time in April of 2025.
Dane had already completed production on the HBO show's third season at the time he died.
'I'm heartbroken by the loss of our dear friend Eric,' the show's creator Sam Levinson said in a statement following Dane's passing. 'Working with him was an honor. Being his friend was a gift.'

'He and his wife, Evelina, were resolved that their children grow up with great values and ensured they make a difference in the broader world. Our collective heart breaks for them, and we all feel such a profound sense of loss.
