Under The Dome - Season 1 - Brian K. Vaughan Interview

Share on Reddit

The Hollywood Reporter: Barbie learns about the missile by revealing his military status as part of a unit believed to be war heroes. How will that come into play once the military leadership learns of his being inside the dome?
Brian K. Vaughan:
That's a very interesting question. Is the solder going to tell his superiors who he ran into? It doesn't seem like it matters too much right now. Since the missile failed, the military is not going be getting inside the dome anytime soon.

THR: The butterflies' attraction to the dome is explained by the fact that bugs use magnetic fields to navigate. However, at the end, the butterfly is seen landing on -- and then leaving -- the dome. If the missile didn't destroy the dome, what impact did it have?
Vaughan:
Hmm, that's very interesting. We'll have to see next week. The dome is going to start doing some new things in response to having been attacked this way.

THR: Does the missile also explain why Joe and Norrie didn't have a seizure again when they kissed?
Vaughan:
Yeah, it certainly seems to be [that way], doesn’t it? There will be a really specific answer next week; I can say someone in the town going to find out about Joe and Norrie's seizures. To this point, they've kept it to themselves. Now, one of the grown-ups finds out.

THR: We see a glimpse of the mass destruction on the outside, will we see more of the missile's effect outside the dome?
Vaughan:
Sure, a little bit. It looks pretty bad what we've seen so far. There's a huge area of devastation where the missile hit, and it doesn’t quite go 360 degrees around the dome. But for half of the dome, as far as the eye can see, there is complete devastation. It was a non-nuclear missile, so there is no radioactive fallout or anything. The fallout is really going to be one of fear. The town realizes that if that thing can't knock [the dome] down, that it's never going away. They are going to be trapped here the rest of their lives.

THR: It is safe to assume panic begins to set in?
Vaughan:
No panic, they're going to sit in circles singing campfire songs (Laughs). Some people keep their cool … but next week we see society begin to fray at the edges. How much water do they have in there exactly? How much food? It's going to get scary.
