Can we trust the past-Jane video saying that Jane did this to herself?
Or could that have been done under duress?
I think shes going to trust it.
Is it more meant to infer that she volunteered?
I cant imagine she actually planned all this.
Well, wait and see.
[Laughs]
Jane says in the video that she wanted to be in the vicinity of Weller.
What does that say about Weller?
Can we trust him?
I think we can.
Obviously, the Taylor Shaw of it all is a very important part of the puzzle here.
There was a reason that she wanted to be near to him.
Is Jane going to be able to question Oscar about whats really going on?
Certainly, its just a question of how much Oscars going to tell her.
As uneasy as she feels about the whole thing, she suddenly has a direct line to some truth.
Also, she remembers being engaged to him.
She remembers the feelings she had toward him.
Will she struggle with keeping this a secret from Weller and the team?
It was one of the big turns in the pitch.
There was a lot of discussion about where it should go.
I really always felt like this was the exact right place.
This adds a layer of tension and intrigue to the show augmenting it without breaking it, basically.
It gives her so much more to do.
Were really excited about it.
Episode 11 has been the hardest episode to write for all sorts of reasons.
Its basically another pilot.
That one took me over a month just to get the tone and balance right.
Were really excited about the direction the show takes in the second part of the season.
Can you talk about some of the themes well be seeing in the second half?
Were so excited about what we have in store the whole way through.
You take risks that dont work, you take risks that do.
Even on a production standpoint, youre finding the boundaries of the show.
How does Oscars reappearance in Janes life complicate things with Weller?
She knows she can trust Weller.
Its a balancing act that she has to go through.
How does the big kiss between Jane and Weller change their dynamic?
At the end of episode 9, she was hanging out and just eating pizza in a casual way.
It was the first time weve seen a lot of them just laugh and smile together.
Then she kisses Weller, which shes wanted to do probably since episode 5.
In a lot of ways, for just a moment, shes on solid ground for the first time.
Then Oscar shows up and the floor falls out from underneath her.
Will we get more flashbacks to the time when Jane and Carter briefly crossed paths?
That time is a real important time, so yes, we eventually will.
And Orion is whats happening with her, right?
Thats a difficult no comment.
We still dont know definitively that Jane is Taylor Shaw, correct?
When will you dive back into that story line?
We get into it pretty seriously in episode 11.
How will Carters death shake things up?
Its a huge deal.
We had been setting him up properly as the big bad of the season.
Will Jane come clean that she was there when it happened?
I dont think so.
Without the knowledge of how exactly Carter died, whats Mayfairs reaction?
I have to imagine she feels everything closing in on her at that point?
Yeah, I think thats right.
That would be a good guess.
But also, shes powerless to do anything.
Really, her only ally as much as she detested Carter was Carter.
Theres not a lot of people she can go to and talk about this stuff with.
Its put her in a weird position.
Now that Carter is dead, what does that mean for Zapatas resignation?
Hopefully she finds out about it before she hands it in.
Whats Zapatas mindset when she finds out Carter is dead?
Its not over for them.
They dont get out of it that easy.
Are we going to get into Reades personal life?
Yes, we will.
Its a big part of the next part of the season.
So he does have a girlfriend?
Yeah, he does.
