That wasnt the only big event of the episode.

ANGELA KANG:I think it’s disappointing for all of us that work on the show.
Everything just takes longer.
And there’s certain processes that couldn’t be moved before California shutdown for business.

And it just couldn’t be done.
People did amazing work on it.
It will feel like there’s kind of an epic, wonderful end to it.

And even that one kind of came in really under the wire.
And so you sort of just alluded to that a little bit.
But hopefully it’ll be a really exciting kind of end to the season with these last couple episodes.
Speaking of exciting, let’s talk about this episode.
A lot of different stories happening here in this last episode, titled Look at the Flowers.
Why go with that title?
It felt like it was the right title.
She does go back to Alexandria after having her subconscious battle with Alpha.
And Daryl does wait for her out in the wild.
And then they have a moment at the gate, but dont say a word.
So where are these two now after everything?
They have one of the longest standing relationships and they’re in complicated places.
They don’t know yet Connie’s fate, if she has survived or if she hasn’t.
For Carol, she’s just in a space where she went through this very intense emotional experience.
Everything has taken its toll on both of them.
Yeah, it’s been a little uncomfortable at times.
I don’t know that he totally trusts him.
But at the same time, is he ready to call this guy his best friend?
I don’t think so.
Lets go through the Beta portion of the story.
Or should I call him Half Moon?
I think it was a little bit influenced by the image of him sort of in shadows.
I think he was the artist who had the alter ego for a second.
Yeah, Chris Gaines!
Maybe more of a football player, but is that the way we want to go?
Right, with the record cover that we saw inFear.
What does that mean in terms of him moving forward?
The thing that we talked about a lot with Beta is that he truly is a Beta.
He loved having the Alpha being the head of it all.
He wants to be the Beta, but he wants to carry her with him.
And then you have some folks on an actualphysicaljourney.
Eugene, Yumiko and Ezekiel are making their way to Charleston.
Comic book fans will recognize this character as the ebullientpersonality known as Princess.
What can you tell us about her and bringing her to the screen?
Yeah, for comic book readers, they know that this is Princess.
And she becomes an important catalyst for some of the things that are to happen.
But we love this actress we cast, Paolo Lazaro.
And so I’m excited for people to see what she brings to this mix going forward.
And so it’s a story that will just continue to unfold.
What else can you tell us about what to expect next week?
You’ll see our clever folks and their plans to finish out this conflict.
But it all crashes towards this epic conflict now that Beta has taken leadership of the Whisperers.
What does that mean for our people now?
And so it’ll be exciting.
I hope people will tune in and watch it.
