Thanks to Jess for the heads up on another interview.

JJJ: And poor Jasper! He’s grown so much this season and now he’s lost Maya. How will he cope with the loss? Will we see a different Jasper when we come back?

JR: He has grown so much. This season has been a coming of age for Jasper. It’s cost us on some level as fans – you know, I’m a fan of Devin [Bostick] and the character just like the audience is – and he was so fun-loving and happy-go-lucky, and obviously in some ways he’s been forced to lose that. I hope he can get it back. I think he probably will, but his heart is broken. Everything he’s had to do, he’s become a hero in his own right. He kept those people together, almost single-handedly. Monty was huge also, of course. But Jasper was sort of the driving force in keeping together when they lost Clarke this season inside Mount Weather, giving them a reason to continue. And yet, at the end, he feels betrayed. I don’t think that will be something he gets over very quickly. So it will certainly make for good material between him and Monty, and he and Bellamy, and he and Clarke in fact.

JJJ: As for the end of the episode, Jaha finds that robot woman who has nuclear missiles and Murphy finds a bunker that once belonged to a man who killed himself because of those missiles. We are so confused! What can you tell us about that?

JR: It’s hard to say whether that’s a good development or a bad development. It’s safe to say it’s probably not a good one. But I don’t want to definitively say that yet. What they found was the cause for the end of the world. There are enough bread crumbs there to lead you to the conclusion that Allie, this AI, is responsible for launching the bombs that ended the world. Of course, that’s not the way it looked for the people on the Ark who were watching their world get blown up – or I just say for the people on various space stations 97 years ago. I hope to tell the story of how all that went down in more detail in season three. And that guy in the bunker is in some ways related to that AI and in some ways he blames himself, and the guilt that leads to his suicide in the video Murphy was watching. He says, “She did it, but it was my fault.” He feels guilty about the end of the world. And then we meet her, who is unlike anything we’ve seen in the world of the show. And that’s what we try to do. I love the fact that season three now promises to be different from season two, like season two was from season one. The story of Allie, and what she is? And what does she want. And how is she there still? All of these questions will be answered.

TVLINE | Fans are still reeling from Lexa’s betrayal. Have you thought about where they might see each other again?
First of all, I hope they see each other someday. Second of all, I do think it was a betrayal and Clarke felt broken on multiple levels. Here was a woman she came to respect and count on and she was completely abandoned by her. It’s not something she’ll get over anytime soon, but as the dust clears and she wraps her head around what happened, she’ll probably be able to understand why Lexa did what she did. Lexa never lied; from the first time they spoke, Lexa said, “Love is weakness.” In that moment, she proved herself to be a woman of her word. She lives by what she preaches, so as hard as it was, I think Clarke will be able to understand it. That doesn’t mean she’ll forgive her, but she’ll understand her.

TVLINE | Does Cage’s death signify the end of the Mount Weather storyline?
Yes, the Mount Weather story has definitely been told. Emerson is alive, though. He’s the one person who survived Mount Weather, and he’ll probably factor into our plans as a threat that’s out there somewhere looking for revenge. But the Mount Weather story was Season 2. We turned the ship towards Mount Weather with the white room at the end of the Season 1 finale, and now, we’ve turned the ship again towards the über story of Season 3 with the City of Light — or, as it turns out, the Woman of Light.

TVLINE | Yeah, let’s talk about that. Will next season have a more futuristic vibe?
Futuristic, yes, but in a weird way, it’s also going to go back to the past. 2052 is when the world ended, and it’s 97 years after that that the show began, so one of the things we’re doing with this ending is getting back to how it all began. It’s a totally new element for the show. It’s a more technological thing, for sure. We’re going to play with how the world ended in the first place, and hopefully, we’ll upend some expectations.
