And with those closing moments,Quanticohas come full circle.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Lets start at the end.
She finally learned to do bad to do good.
And once that decision was made, that scene just wrote itself.
Why did it make sense for Alex to become a fugitive again?
Quanticois still waiting for the news of whether itll be renewed for a season 3.
If it does get another season, have you and the writers talked about where Alex would end up?
I would have also liked to bring Sebastian back but David [Lim] got cast in another show.
I also wish we would not have restructured episodes 9 through 13 as much as we did.
I think it actually made it more confusing, so thats my only regret, even thoughIdid this.
I think we should have just stuck to what we had shot.
We reset in [episode] 14, but that was 14, not 9.
And I would have loved to have done a little more with Nimah and Raina this year.
[Laughs]
Instead of Owen and Alex, you ended this potential series finale on Ryan and Alex.
That means Ryan and Alex were always the romantic endgame, right?Oh yeah.
Then to talk specifically about this finale, Roarke is absolutely dead, right?Hes dead, yeah.
We based it on like two generals meeting on a battlefield after one side has lost.
Its like shooting the horse thats been injured.
That was Clays moment to speak his truth and walk out.
We actually shot in that room, but I just didnt want to see it.
I wanted to stay in Clays head.
Speaking of Clay, why was it important for he and Shelby to reach this decision to stay apart?
We wrote a kiss for them at some point that we ended up not shooting.
I know that it came out in the pitching of the story.
I mean, we were all feeling it, you know?…
It was cathartic to write that.
There has to be checks and balances and theyhaveto listen to us, they have to hear us out.
That is what Priyanka is saying, so that was very important.
But sadly, yes, its wishful thinking.
Now, really quickly, you mentioned a while back thatwed see a Henley again.
I dont remember seeing one did I miss it?Oh, it was in [episode 20]!
Ryan was in the Henley in the scene with him and Shelby on the couch watchingNotting Hilland13 Days.
Ididmiss it.That was his pajamas!
It was a rollercoaster ride, and Im just really glad that the showwasthat.
It was what I set out for in the very beginning.
When I pitched it, I said it was a Trojan horse.
If theres more to the journey, theyre all set up in the right places [to continue].
