00:00A lot of the characters have to really wrestle with their past this season including Frenchie. What was it like getting to do that?
00:06Challenging more than anything. I mean, you know Frenchie again. It's like he's the wild card if
00:13If the boys is a family so Frenchie is the troubled teenager, you know what I mean and
00:20To read the new scripts of season 4 and see the storyline for Frenchie so dark
00:26It was so dark and I went like oh, that's interesting. That's a challenge. That's something new and
00:33It wasn't always easy because
00:36just because the material is so
00:39just dark and hard but
00:42unfortunately, we
00:46We have such a beautiful and amazing people working on this show and everything kind of makes you it's a family
00:53So you feel like you're in a safe place?
00:55like you can't you're protected and
00:58You get the opportunity to explore
01:01It's a beautiful playground for an actor. So I was very very thankful for that. Yeah
01:06We get to see it Kimiko and Frenchie finally come together and share a kiss in season 4
01:11Do you ship them as a couple? Oh, yeah, of course. Of course. Come on. You have to get to Marseille at some point
01:17Come on, it's it's it's inevitable. Yeah, but actually that kiss, you know again being here five years ago

01:39and
01:40I feel like this kiss between friend Kimiko and Frenchie was something that the fans really wanted really asked for
01:48And it felt like a symbiotic relationship that we are
01:52Actually giving them what they want
01:55Hearing them and that's we're all just you know, it's like a family thing. It was so shooting that knowing this was very
02:04very very
02:06Emotional. Yeah
02:08Season 4 ends with the boys and probably the worst place we've ever seen them
02:12What do you think or hope happens for them in the final season season 5?
02:17Man oh look at that question. Did you ask everyone that question? What did they say? I mean, I'm dying to know
02:25What's the most amazing answer you got?
02:28Answers have been all over the place. But thinking of Frenchie. Is there one thing you'd like to see him do in season 5?
