Kutner was found dead after a self-inflicted gunshot wound in his apartment. Thirteen and Foreman found his body in the “Simple Explanation” episode. Kutner didn’t provide any goodbye ticket or anything explaining his suicide. Although the producers confirmed that Kutner’s death was indeed a suicide, there are still questions left unanswered.

Actor Kal Penn revealed that he decided to leave the series of his own accord. The reason wasn’t any of the usual ones actors abandon top series. He did not have any conflicts with another actor.
