“It’s so big to show this relationship that’s just as normal as any other relationship.”
ALEX NEWELL:There’s always stress with all of that, and Mo really is feeling it.
Because this is Mo growing up and venturing into something different than the normal that Mo has been doing.

We see Mo and Max arguing of what work is and who’s doing what.
Mo is just so perfectly made for the front of house role.
[Laughs] Whenever you walk in, you just see Mo with the decor.
Perry is kind of the older version of Mo, in a different light.
They have the same ideologies, and I love seeing how they bounce off of each other.
That comes with its own trials and tribulations at the end of the day.
I treat it as if I would in my own relationship.
[Laughs] It’s nice to have this breath of fresh air.
There’s a familiarity about it all and a comfortability with it.
What was it like exploring that in this episode?
It’s not a new kind of relationship for them.
You’re not the only one that can sit here and have a bad day.
That is the dynamic shift that most friendships should have to go through in life.
you’ve got the option to only pour so much water into stuff until it overflows.
The friendship between Zoey and Mo, there’s a lot to figure out there.
What can you tell us about the musical performance we get to see from you in this episode?
“Let’s Get Loud” might be one of the best of the season so far.
It’s great and super-fun.
I’ve always been a fan of that number.
Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlistreturns Sunday at 9 p.m. ET/PT on NBC.
