Promo & Post Mortem Interview
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Let’s start with the last scene of the premiere, in which the First Lady is beheaded. That might have been the most morbid scene ever shown on Quantico. What were the discussions about it in the writers’ room like, and how did you come up with this early death?
JOSH SAFRAN: We believed in looking at a more global view of terrorism this season, and to also try and be more mature and therefore more accurate and less silly [in our storytelling]. In looking at terrorism, we really had to take a step and say, “Okay, what are the most emotionally violent acts of terrorism?” We now live in a world where it’s no longer a car backfire that you automatically assume you’re hearing outside the window, but maybe a bomb. In that world, just looking at, say, ISIS, what they do is they destabilize us and disrupt us by taking down things that we think of as places that are safe. They destroy art and architectural ruins. The new world of terrorism is such that things are attacked for their symbolic nature, not just for revenge or retribution. So the conversation became, “If a terrorist event happened, and these people were all there, what would be the thing that unsettles the world, not just America, immediately?” The conversation progressed from there.
So the point is to show the audience how ruthless this terrorist group is.
The moment shows the audience that with these terrorists, the plan that they say is not the plan that they really have. This is not an isolated moment that is never spoken of again. There is a reason that will be uncovered, and there is a connection that will be made.
