A very jerky domino.
Yes, Mr.Jerky McJerkface himselfmet his gory and gruesome end.
As the tape played, a zombified maintenance crew entered the town square eating anything and anyone in sight.

It was a shocking end, made even more surprising because Sebastian actually doesnotperish in the original source material.
TEO RAPP-OLSSON:It was so, so much fun.
And then after a take everyone’s like, “Oh, great job!”

You had a good day at the office when that’s what you get to do for a living.
So it was the time of my life.
The big thing that I looked at wasAmerican Psycho.

And that’s what I felt Sebastian would do with just about anyone, except maybe his mother.
And then you go look at some other royal a-holes in the world.
Joffrey’s [fromGame of Thrones] a great one.

Yes, I know exactly who this guy is now."
And being from New York originally, I have obviously met some of these kind of preppy guys.
So there’s certainly some people in there from my own world as well.
When and how were you informed of Sebastian’s untimely demise?
[ShowrunnerAngela Kang] is amazing and does like to run around to everybody.
So I found out by reading through it and was like, “Oh my gosh!”
And Angela was mortified because she wanted more than anything to be the one to drop it to me.
So it was completely my bad.
Were you at all surprised, because Sebastian does not die in the comic?
I actually read through the entire comic book series once I had gotten the part.
So obviously I had some other ideas in mind.
And I think this is kind of along those same lines.
Tell me about filming the big death scene and what that day was like?
And he was not lying.
He was standing there with basically an upside-down fire extinguisher that pumps all this fake blood through.
It’s one of those weird things where obviously you don’t really have a lot of preparation.
So if for any reason we had to redo that, that’s another day at the very least.
What did that fake blood oozing out of your mouth taste like?
I’m happy you asked that because I’m gonna toot my own a horn here.
And Greg was like, “Oh, do you want blood?
We can get a blood.
Let’s get some blood.”
And so they take a cup and it’s very syrupy and sugary tasting.
Cause I’ve heard that it’s supposed to be sugary.
I’ve never had a mouthful of it before.
What was it like when they wrapped you and saying goodbye to everyone?
It’s so bittersweet.
But a lot of people showed up.
[Ross Marquand] was on set that day and ran up to me.
I believe he was the one who lifted me off the ground after we’ve finished shooting.
I didn’t even realize he was on set, but he was just there to congratulate me.
It was just a ton of hugs.
Greg was willing to hug me in all my blood.
Even the most villainous characters usually have some sort of redeeming quality.
Were you able to find one for Sebastian?
Those are really big shoes to fill.
Nobody ever tells him no.
And that’s something that obviously all of us need to hear once in a while.
And he was lacking that.
