Post Mortem Interviews
What can you tease about the finale?
KITSIS: All killer, no filler.
HOROWITZ: In the finale, we’ve suffered a lot of loss over the season, a lot of death—
KITSIS: More to come.
HOROWITZ: But just because of that doesn’t mean you can’t see them again. There might be some ghost curtain calls to come.
What’s going to surprise us about the finale?
KITSIS: I think what’s going to surprise us about the culmination of the season is that everything we thought we knew in the pilot was wrong. We were warned by the Tall Man. We really were interested in creating the first few episodes to make it feel like we were hitting all the tropes of these movies, and then we wanted to turn it on its head, because at its core, the show is about identity.

TVLINE | Who’s going to have the strongest reaction to Deb’s death?
KITSIS | [Laughs] I have a feeling there’s not going to be a lot of time for reacting. They’re all going to be running for their lives, so as much as one might want to stop and mourn, they’ve just got to keep going.
GOLDBERG | Next week, we pick up right after. It’s full-throttle. There’s the aftermath of the events of Episode 9 to contend with; we’re still in the middle of a very scary, intense situation.
TVLINE | Given the ghostly nature of the show, what are the odds we’ll see Deb — and maybe a few other dead characters — next week?
KITSIS | I would be really disappointed if I spent all this time with these characters, and we didn’t get to see at least some of them as ghosts.
GOLDBERG | I think there are some ghost curtain calls coming.
KITSIS | Yes. They come out, we clap and then they all sing a song from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
