What did you want to dive into more with a this time?
STEVE YOCKEY:Yeah, of course.
Natalie’s new this season, so she was fresh eyes.

And then Natalie came in and had this idea for doubles.
YOCKEY:I do tend to take very good ideas and just shred them into weird things.
So there’s a lot of Cassie in this season.
How would you say Cassie is fairing after the first two episodes?
Is Cassie getting better at handling any of this?
YOCKEY:I guess it depends if you listen to Cassie.
In the first two episodes, she sure is telling everyone that she’s better at handling it.
I think part of the ride of the season is finding out exactly how true that is.
CHAIDEZ:Megan has been on the run since the end of season 1.
YOCKEY:Yeah, you’re not going to have to wait very long at all.
Episode 3 is particularly bananas, in a good way.
You all mentioned Grace earlier.
We love that and we will revisit it.
YOCKEY:Also we introduced a character that has some really fascinating hobbies.
So much of the first two episodes are about Cassie’s sobriety.
Will that continue to play a major role as the mystery ramps up?
YOCKEY:Yeah, we’re tracking it.
The real question: Can we trust Marco (Santiago Cabrera)?
How do you feel the season 2 mystery compares to season 1?
YOCKEY:It’s a very different pop in of mystery.
We’ve got some fun surprises in store.
We don’t just want to shock people to do it.
Characters acting out of character is the quickest way to make people turn off their TV.
We want them to be able to trust us, just not any of our characters.
What can you say about Esteban (Joseph Julian Soria) and Gabrielle (Callie Hernandez)?
CHAIDEZ:They are a very happy couple.
YOCKEY:And they like designer labels.
They love matching in designer labels.
What’s your favorite episode of season 2?
It goes to such a great emotional place, and Kaley’s just so incredible in it.
That’s definitely my favorite episode.
New episodes ofThe Flight Attendantdrop Thursdays on HBO Max.
