“You should read into that as much as you possibly can,” showrunner Joe Pokaski tells TVLine. “What the writers and I wanted to create was a bit of a Rorschach test for the audience. It’s exciting in this day and age to work on a show for 20 episodes where holding hands is the thing that people will get excited about. The best we can say is that this is the opening of a door of a question that a lot of people have been asking.”
The big moment came in the episode’s final minutes, as Tandy and Tyrone were headed out of town on a bus, en route to some lives in need of saving.
“Season 3 is about Tandy and Tyrone running into danger and looking for trouble, instead of waiting for trouble to come to their front door,” Pokaski says, clarifying that a third season has not officially been ordered. “And when you’re telling a coming-of-age story, part of that is traveling, seeing yourself in a different context and getting a different perspective on who you are.”
And although Pokaski acknowledges that the characters’ struggles will continue (“Tyrone is still going to experience life as a young black man in America, which won’t be easy”), the goal was for Tandy and Tyrone to properly “process” the fears that have been holding them back.
