Key Highlights

  • Landry immediately comes to Tyra’s defense and smashes the guy’s head with a pipe.
  • The stalker dies on the way to the hospital and Landry and Tyra, in a panic, then dump his body into the river.
  • In an appearance on Entertainment Weekly’s The Awardist podcast, Plemons said he was “pretty shocked” when the storyline was revealed.“They didn’t tell me that something bad was gonna happen or I was going to be killed off or something, so I wasn’t worried about that,” he said.
  • “But it was kind of a double-edged sword because on the one hand, I was as shocked as everyone to read that script where the comedic relief kills for love in high school.
  • But at the same time, I don’t think I could allow myself to question it too much, because it was happening.” Related Stories News 'Bugonia' Gets Post-Christmas Streaming Date On Peacock Below The Line Cinematography Oscar Shortlist: 'Frankenstein', 'Bugonia' & 'Marty Supreme' With Familiar Names; 'Sinners', 'Train Dreams' & Others Bring Fresh Faces Plemons also noted that the series had a high “level of realism,” making it even harder to pull off a “really extreme storyline that does not seem too rooted in something realistic”.
