Im like, Oh no, Ive lost one of my best friends in Vancouver when Im up there.

Because we want to be around Steven, hes so good.

And now we made our bed and now we have to lie in it.

NICKERSON:That scene just came out so well as far as I know we were concerned.

And she feels in that moment it is absolutely the right thing to do.

Its something that, as Bart said, I think really affects her character.

DEADLINE:Well, the back half has been really fun so far.

Tell me about writing that twist and bringing it to fruition.

I was like, You just have to see the last 10 seconds of this episode.

It is my favorite thing thats ever happened.

And I showed it to him.

And I mean, Nelson nailed it.

And so to have finally gotten there and get to introduce the world to our vision is very satisfying.
