Skip navigation! Story from Best of Netflix. The homecoming queen chooses the life of apocalypse royalty over a quiet eternity with Josh. It is a problem that flairs up as Sam takes her Daybreak crown. It is not — and emotional chaos ensues.
The Cheesecake Factory is more involved than you think. Refinery Daybreak drops a few hints that the Josh-Sam relationship may be doomed. Were you expecting that finale twist?
We were receiving the episodes while we were filming. I think the producers kind of held off on those last couple scripts until closer to the time we were going to be shooting.
It added to the shock on our faces. I, in the back of my head, always thought Josh would find Sam. But things are not always the way they seem in the apocalypse. What do you think Sam taking that crown means for the future? That is the Daybreakers, formed behind Josh, and, I guess, the Jocks. Girls are so often accused of being a villain when they claim their power like Sam does in that scene. Do you think she become an antagonist in that moment? Sam is closing the door on a relationship with Josh.
But not only is she closing the door on the relationship — she essentially invites Josh to join her. I think with the rejection of the offer to join her, there is an opportunity for some sort of competitiveness between Josh and Sam. Josh calls Sam a slut. He just wants to say something that he knows will directly affect or hurt Sam. His zero sex count in comparison to the fact that Sam has had a couple partners? That makes him uncomfortable. Why did we need that conversation?
