But what happens when his hands are literally tied?
He’s in an extremely vulnerable situation where he is in front of death.
From the very first scene, Carlos understands what kind of situation this is.
He sees a dead woman inside of the closet and he knows he’s in big trouble.
He knows what all of this means.
He’s going to be the one in the closet dead.
It was just awesome to get to play like that.
That had to be physically difficult as well.
Those zip ties are real, so my hands were hurting like hell at the end of those days.
We’re constantly on the move shooting this show, pumping out scenes.
The actress [who played the mom holding Carlos captive], Bonita Friedericy, was awesome.
The actor as well, [Adam O’Byrne,] was super cool.
The episode ends with Carlos losing his pulse and TK injecting him with NARCAN.
Having survived this crisis, where does Tarlos go from here?
I think in that moment, for Carlos and TK, there isn’t so much to process.
Essentially, everything goes out the window, and what stays is love is the unity between them.
There is a line at the end where TK says, “You almost lost your life.”
And Carlos just looks at him and says, “Well, it’s yours.
My life is yours.”
