00:00 This is the last season.
00:01 What is the hardest thing to say goodbye to?
00:03 The people. It's always the people. It's always been the people.
00:06 I loved every single person who worked on this.
00:09 Not just the cast, but the crew as well.
00:12 Every single person who worked on this.
00:14 Season two and three, we shot in the middle of COVID.
00:17 Then we had nurses there giving us tests.
00:21 I thank them too.
00:22 It's just like everyone had a smile on the entire time we worked on that show.
00:26 I don't think that's normal.
00:29 I hope that one day it could be normal.
00:32 That's what I'm going to miss.
00:33 I'm just going to miss the camaraderie and the love.
00:36 The love. Yeah.
00:37 Fans are so excited to see everyone back.
00:40 What are you excited to hear from them? Their feedback?
00:44 I just can't wait for people to freak out over more love triangles.
00:49 Because you know what?
00:50 That's at the center of this show.
00:53 The kids are going to go crazy.
00:57 They're going to go crazy.
00:58 And let them go crazy.
01:00 Let them squirm for a bit.
01:02 But it is so worth it because the ending is perfect.
01:07 It's perfect.
01:09 And you have such a fun character.
01:10 What was your favorite part about bringing that to life?
01:13 Every time I got a script, I had no idea what Trent was going to say or do.
01:17 I just couldn't wait to read the scripts.
01:22 Truly.
01:26 Yeah, there were a lot of physical moments.
01:29 And there was a lot of eating that Trent had to do.
01:32 Which isn't the easiest thing to do when you're doing take after take.
01:36 But Trent was just fun to play.
01:40 He was a dream to play.
01:41 And he was earnest.
01:43 And he was genuine.
01:45 And who doesn't love to play that kind of character?
01:50 And we're just doing a little senior superlative thing.
01:55 And you brought up love triangles.
01:57 But I want to ask, of all the seasons, do you have a favorite kiss between two characters?
02:02 It doesn't have to be your own.
02:03 Anyone?
02:04 You know what?
02:07 I think my favorite kiss would have to be between Anissa and Fabiola.
02:12 Because it was really...
02:14 It took people by surprise.
02:15 And to me, that is high school.
02:19 People are figuring it out in high school as they should be.
02:24 As they should be.
02:25 Don't be afraid to figure it out in high school.
02:27 Because you have the rest of your lives to continue to construct who you are, right?
02:33 We're all figuring it out.
02:34 We are all figuring it out.
02:36 But when I read that, I was like, I cannot wait for people to see that.
02:40 And Lee and Megan did an unbelievable job playing that scene.
02:45 I mean, they played that scene to perfection.
02:48 And that was the best.
02:50 That was the best.
02:50 (upbeat music)
