Vangsness was already preparing for for the end of filming on April 18.

“My goodness. What a joy and a privilege I’ve had to sit at this desk,” she wrote in the caption of a photo of her character’s desk. “I’m not crying, because I will mess up Garcia’s make-up if I do but I am becoming exquisitely aware I am entering good bye time.”
