00:52:32,776 --> 00:52:36,867 and we liked this idea of showing this mural. 531 00:52:36,910 --> 00:52:40,523 We wanted to touch on these themes of high and low class, 532 00:52:40,566 --> 00:52:42,916 which go throughout the season. 533 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:46,529 At the top of the mural, you'll see this family wearing crowns 534 00:52:46,572 --> 00:52:50,185 and then Daryl scans his flashlight down and you see, 535 00:52:50,228 --> 00:52:52,752 it's the same family and they're still wearing the crowns, 536 00:52:52,796 --> 00:52:55,059 but they're now homeless and they're looking for food. 537 00:52:55,102 --> 00:52:56,930 And you see people who are in crowns 538 00:52:56,974 --> 00:52:58,541 that are being torn apart, 539 00:52:58,584 --> 00:53:00,456 not by zombies, but by other humans, 540 00:53:00,499 --> 00:53:03,763 and so we were trying to tell the story of what happened 541 00:53:03,807 --> 00:53:07,332 in these subway tunnels, and the backstory of it is that 542 00:53:07,376 --> 00:53:09,900 there was this massive class struggle that happened. 543 00:53:09,943 --> 00:53:13,469 People wound up being murdered and stuffed in bags, 544 00:53:13,512 --> 00:53:16,950 and so you see a mixing of people who are homeless 545 00:53:16,994 --> 00:53:19,388 along with people who had a lot of money. 546 00:53:19,431 --> 00:53:22,565 You know, there's a guy in a suit with just a suitcase 547 00:53:22,608 --> 00:53:24,697 full of cash that he tried to run away with, 548 00:53:24,741 --> 00:53:26,960 but you now think, like, "Well, that was useless." 549 00:53:27,004 --> 00:53:29,485 And then you even see a different context for money, 550 00:53:29,528 --> 00:53:32,531 because he finds this bag of things left behind 551 00:53:32,575 --> 00:53:34,664 by children who were forced to be 552 00:53:34,707 --> 00:53:36,492 almost adults in their own right 553 00:53:36,535 --> 00:53:40,626 and you see something that was a bill that became just note paper 554 00:53:40,670 --> 00:53:43,325 for this child to leave a message to parents, 555 00:53:43,368 --> 00:53:45,762 and clearly, they never found each other. 556 00:53:45,805 --> 00:53:48,504 You know, there was a bunny that Maggie saw on the tracks, 557 00:53:48,547 --> 00:53:51,507 and then you see the photo of these two beautiful children, 558 00:53:51,550 --> 00:53:53,726 and the daughter had the stuffed bunny, 559 00:53:53,770 --> 00:53:56,729 so they either didn't make it or at the very least, 560 00:53:56,773 --> 00:53:58,818 they had to run and leave that toy behind. 561 00:53:58,862 --> 00:54:01,386 So, for Daryl as he's kind of going through, 562 00:54:01,430 --> 00:54:05,347 it's a reminder for him that the mission they're on 563 00:54:05,390 --> 00:54:10,656 is to prevent their people from winding up in a place like this. 564 00:54:10,700 --> 00:54:14,312 Keeping them afloat is worth the sacrifice for our heroes. 565 00:54:18,490 --> 00:54:20,579 Some of the things that we love about Princess 566 00:54:20,623 --> 00:54:23,974 is that she is just this bright, shining light 567 00:54:24,017 --> 00:54:26,803 in the middle of this dark world. 568 00:54:26,846 --> 00:54:29,414 She is authentically who she is. 569 00:54:29,458 --> 00:54:33,723 She has been through so much trauma, but is looking to 570 00:54:33,766 --> 00:54:35,290 connect with people. 571 00:54:35,333 --> 00:54:38,031 You know, we claim this character as having ADHD, 572 00:54:38,075 --> 00:54:40,251 and we've tried to kind of be true to some of 573 00:54:40,295 --> 00:54:43,385 the mental health struggles that sometimes accompany that, 574 00:54:43,428 --> 00:54:45,517 because you just think in a different way, 575 00:54:45,561 --> 00:54:48,041 and sometimes, people don't accept that. 576 00:54:48,085 --> 00:54:50,783 But, you know, we've seen that she's incredibly observant, 577 00:54:50,827 --> 00:54:54,004 and that because she can sort of hyper-focus on things, 578 00:54:54,047 --> 00:54:56,702 she notices things that a lot of people miss, 579 00:54:56,746 --> 00:54:59,879 and so that in and of itself becomes this thing 580 00:54:59,923 --> 00:55:04,057 that helps our people almost escape in the first episode. 581 00:55:04,101 --> 00:55:06,799 I also think, like, you know, she's not shy. 582 00:55:06,843 --> 00:55:08,323 She just kind of was like, 583 00:55:08,366 --> 00:55:09,585 "Well, I gotta go to the bathroom, 584 00:55:09,628 --> 00:55:11,282 so I'm just going to talk to this guy." 585 00:55:11,326 --> 00:55:14,372 Do you have toilet paper? 586 00:55:14,416 --> 00:55:16,069 I'm excited. 587 00:55:16,113 --> 00:55:19,899 The fact that she is somebody that is not afraid to 588 00:55:19,943 --> 00:55:22,685 try to connect with people is something that's going to 589 00:55:22,728 --> 00:55:25,296 take her really, really far, at the end of the day. 590 00:55:25,340 --> 00:55:26,863 You want to speak to my supervisor? 591 00:55:26,906 --> 00:55:29,213 That's right! We wanna talk to the manager. 592 00:55:31,607 --> 00:55:33,652 When Maggie comes back in the train car 593 00:55:33,696 --> 00:55:37,003 and says, "I slipped and he saw me do it 594 00:55:37,047 --> 00:55:39,266 and he left me to die." And he's like... 595 00:55:39,310 --> 00:55:41,921 Okay. So what? 596 00:55:41,965 --> 00:55:44,924 That's just Negan. I don't think he feels a lot of shame 597 00:55:44,968 --> 00:55:49,320 about, like, the things that he does as a survivor, 598 00:55:49,364 --> 00:55:52,845 and I think he's always been oddly a straight shooter. 599 00:55:52,889 --> 00:55:55,718 He pretty much tells you who he is and what he thinks, 600 00:55:55,761 --> 00:55:58,764 and he tells every person what he thinks about them. 601 00:55:58,808 --> 00:56:02,028 Like, a lot of times -- he can be a real bully at times, 602 00:56:02,072 --> 00:56:03,552 like, to people and just kind of 603 00:56:03,595 --> 00:56:04,814 call them names and things like that. 604 00:56:04,857 --> 00:56:06,729 I'll tell you why I'm here, man-tits. 605 00:56:06,772 --> 00:56:10,515 I'm real close to shoving a gag in your mouth. 606 00:56:10,559 --> 00:56:12,082 Well, why don't you get up 607 00:56:12,125 --> 00:56:14,171 on your little tippy toes and try. 608 00:56:14,214 --> 00:56:16,956 There's definitely no not knowing 609 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:18,915 where you stand with Negan. 610 00:56:18,958 --> 00:56:20,351 Hey, this one seems a bit looser! 611 00:56:20,395 --> 00:56:22,571 Sasquatch, gimme a hand! 612 00:56:22,614 --> 00:56:26,096 In the scene with Gage, we felt that it was 613 00:56:26,139 --> 00:56:29,621 really important to come to a point in this story 614 00:56:29,665 --> 00:56:33,146 where a horrible decision had to be made. 615 00:56:33,190 --> 00:56:34,931 Gage is so young. 616 00:56:34,974 --> 00:56:37,499 I mean, the guy is kind of a jerk. 617 00:56:37,542 --> 00:56:39,936 He was part of the group that was bullying Lydia 618 00:56:39,979 --> 00:56:42,547 at Alexandria. He was sort of complicit 619 00:56:42,591 --> 00:56:44,854 in this attack on her. 620 00:56:44,897 --> 00:56:47,683 But we thought like, you know, somebody like that, 621 00:56:47,726 --> 00:56:50,337 who's still kind of young and growing -- 622 00:56:50,381 --> 00:56:52,905 he's out on this mission because he wants to try to 623 00:56:52,949 --> 00:56:54,951 help and try to redeem something, 624 00:56:54,994 --> 00:56:58,520 but he made some bad choices, once again. 625 00:56:58,563 --> 00:57:00,260 Gage. 626 00:57:00,304 --> 00:57:02,088 He took our supplies. 627 00:57:02,132 --> 00:57:04,177 He runs off at the first opportunity 628 00:57:04,221 --> 00:57:06,092 and he takes supplies with him. 629 00:57:06,136 --> 00:57:09,182 When he comes back, our people would have let him 630 00:57:09,226 --> 00:57:13,491 back in if they could have, but I think when they look at 631 00:57:13,535 --> 00:57:16,581 the math of, like, you've got a herd of zombies 632 00:57:16,625 --> 00:57:18,757 coming after you, you were a coward, 633 00:57:18,801 --> 00:57:21,978 if we let you in, now we're going to use our ammo, 634 00:57:22,021 --> 00:57:26,025 we're going to use our energy. You might die anyway 635 00:57:26,069 --> 00:57:29,028 and we might all die. I think that Maggie kind of 636 00:57:29,072 --> 00:57:31,466 looks at that and she thinks like a general and goes, 637 00:57:31,509 --> 00:57:33,250 like, "You're an acceptable loss 638 00:57:33,293 --> 00:57:35,470 in order for the rest of us to go on." 639 00:57:35,513 --> 00:57:39,256 But that doesn't make the decision any nicer 640 00:57:39,299 --> 00:57:43,216 or easier, because he also takes his moment to kind of say, 641 00:57:43,260 --> 00:57:46,350 "'F' you. Like, if you're going to do this, then you're going to 642 00:57:46,393 --> 00:57:48,439 watch me turn in front of you. 643 00:57:48,483 --> 00:57:49,701 Like, that's what's going to happen." 644 00:57:56,447 --> 00:58:01,583 An important moment in the arc between Maggie and Negan is, 645 00:58:01,626 --> 00:58:04,542 there's this moment where they feel like 646 00:58:04,586 --> 00:58:06,283 they're just in real trouble, 647 00:58:06,326 --> 00:58:08,024 and maybe they're all going to die, 648 00:58:08,067 --> 00:58:12,245 and Maggie hands Negan a gun that she has on her. 649 00:58:12,289 --> 00:58:16,641 Maggie really is just kind of, like, cold, hard leader 650 00:58:16,685 --> 00:58:20,079 at that point. Right then, he's just an asset. 651 00:58:20,123 --> 00:58:22,429 The mission has become more important 652 00:58:22,473 --> 00:58:26,129 than any one individual or any one dynamic 653 00:58:26,172 --> 00:58:29,698 that exists between them, and that is true even for her. 654 00:58:29,741 --> 00:58:33,397 And so, when he gives it back, maybe there is at least 655 00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:37,619 this tiny, tiny bit of trust that has passed back and forth 656 00:58:37,662 --> 00:58:40,404 between them, and that's going to just be part of 657 00:58:40,447 --> 00:58:43,276 the shifting sands that they're on as they're going through 658 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:45,844 this mission together. 659 00:58:45,888 --> 00:58:48,673 The final scene with the Reapers shows, like, 660 00:58:48,717 --> 00:58:52,285 "A", they've got the hanging bodies and all kinds of 661 00:58:52,329 --> 00:58:54,113 things -- like, there is definitely sort of 662 00:58:54,157 --> 00:58:57,726 this "Apocalypse Now" type of vibe to them. 663 00:58:57,769 --> 00:59:00,816 This element of, "Don't mess with us. 664 00:59:00,859 --> 00:59:02,818 Our territory is our territory. 665 00:59:02,861 --> 00:59:06,822 Don't cross, but if you do, there's going to be a problem." 666 00:59:06,865 --> 00:59:09,564 And just the way that they're marching forward, 667 00:59:09,607 --> 00:59:11,914 you see this sort of boldness of, like, 668 00:59:11,957 --> 00:59:14,699 "We're not afraid of coming to meet you." 669 00:59:14,743 --> 00:59:17,833 They are very, very, very formidable and they know it.
