SOPHIE OKONEDO: I haven’t seen it, so actually I can just go by memories.
I haven’t seen the final thing at all.
When I first read it, I kept turning the page, like, This is still going on.

This is still going on now.
Oh my god, I’m in it.
Im in it a lot.
Oh my god, I haven’t done that sort of thing that much.
How am I going to manage?I think it took two weeks and it was actually quite exciting.
[Director] Ciaran [Donnelly] is brilliant doing those sequences.

I can’t wait to see it.
The last time we saw these two was at the Waygate, and that was a very emotional farewell.
OKONEDO:We’re the love of each other’s lives.
Of course she does that, as well.
All the circumstances that come in front of them just mean it can’t happen.
It can’t happen.
It can’t happen.
So, that’s always the challenge with those two, and it’s kind of heartbreaking.
How do you feel that moment informs his actions around her?
Because it does feel like from that point on, he’s a lot more protective of her.
DANIEL HENNEY: I remember shooting that day.It was pretty powerful.
The sets are amazing and it feels very real.
If you’ve read the books, you know what that entails.
There are plenty of great shows and movies to watch this weekend.
Was that your interpretation of that scene, or did you have another read of it?
HENNEY: That was my interpretation.
In the States in high school, you have promise rings.
I guess that’s the closest thing to it.
We couldn’t quite propose, butthat’s Lan promising her their future as much as you could.
The gesture is huge.
Its his mother’s ring.
In this season,you’re going to start to see his shift in thoughts toward his past more.
What was that like, getting a chance to really play off of more of the cast this season?
OKONEDO:That’s why this is my favorite season by far.
I got to do the thing I do, which is acting.
I had funny scenes and then scenes that were serious and then devastating scenes.
I think you just get to see the more human.
You do get to see that she’s fallible.
She’s all those things.
