Read ‘The Penguin’ Finale Script By Lauren LeFranc

Historically, a half -Mexican woman is not the first to write a story about violently ambitious gangs, and it is most enthusiastic about it. I had the opportunity to investigate a personality like this through a different lens. But when I dug, I kept the same question to start in my face … Why does anyone want to see a man like this? A white middle -aged man, who wants power? Did we not see enough of these? But then I looked at my young boys – these two young and flexible minds – and I thought, what could they become? Are bad men born? Or is it made …? Thus, I began to think about this series less as a traditional story “height to power”, more as the origin of the monster, and an opportunity – over eight episodes – to explore the psychology of the Oz Coeb, and the display of its region and its harmful history, without glorifying it. Without moving away from the brutal and perceived cost that comes with the desire of a man who is not shaken in power … this, for me, is what made this story deserve to be narrated.

However, in order to have a deeper understanding, not tights of geese, I knew that we could not only try the world through his eyes. After all, if there is one uninterrupted thing, then this is his perspective that we tell stories of things. That is why I wanted to be exposed to a series with complex people – especially women. When I was a child, I was a reader of the thirsty comic book, and I remember that I am trying to imagine myself as characters I loved, but it seems that the most men. In the crime drama that I liked, the women were either the “wife” or “encryption” that died in the service of the man's story (sometimes in the man's same man). I did not want our female characters to suffer from this fate. I didn't want any of our characters to feel like a later idea.

Sofia Fallon is the female personality that I hope to have arisen. A defective woman, strange, sarcastic, interesting fight against those who want to silence her. There is no one who perfectly envelops this character from Christine Milioti. Oz's mother, Francis CoB, is partially inspired by my late grandmother Ovilia – a single, and stubborn mother, who arrived in the United States with a little money, but a great hell of ambition. Fortunately, the amazing Derdari Ocunel brought Francis to life with vitality, humor and gravel. Victor Aguar, whom Renzi Velez played beautifully, is the audience's way to the strange and wonderful world of Oz. He is a child with better intentions than the world provides, and the true heart of our story. And lest we forget the Penguin itself, Oz Cobb – one of the most challenging and magic characters that was my pleasure to write. Wonderfully made better than Kulne Farrell. I approached Uz with sympathy, but I never wanted to make excuses for him. I wanted to photograph a violent charming narcissist, without becoming a caricature. In the end, I wanted the audience to feel betrayal and amazement from the actions of Oz, but I also feel that what it does is inevitable; The man Oz reveals himself in the end, it is always.

Before I write the first episode, I knew where all of our characters will end. I knew that Oz would force Sofia to Arkham, and that he would kill Victor. I knew that Oz would achieve the strength she missed, but his mother Francis will never tell him that she was proud of him. The final image of our chain – Oz in the dilapidated Benthaus, dances with his sex -working girlfriend wearing his mother's clothes, convinced himself that he got everything he wanted. A true love relationship!

Of course, there is a difference in knowing what I was seeking, putting the pen on paper and landing on the plane, if it is permissible to speak. I wanted to do correctly through our story, by our crew, crew, and fans. I really don't want the plane crash. There were many scenes in our program, which was a challenge to writing, but there are two in our ring that stands in particular-the 10-page sequence with OZ, Sofia and Francis in Al Jaz Club (Al-Mashhad 9), and the last moms of Oz and Victor together by the River (Al-Mashhad 36). The scene of the jazz club was a monster in everything. The huge emotional confrontation that turned into a twisted treatment session turned a violent fight that turned the work sequence. I was almost broken, but fortunately, I was supported by a few amazing writers who gave me notes and pushed me to dig deeper (Thank you Vladimir, John, Brena, and Nick). The last scene has broken Victor in a different way. I didn't want his story to end. I was mistaken, because it was. The sympathy is the greatest tool for the writer, although there is a personality like Oz, he could have sought his heart and mind. Especially in this episode. After all, we offered a tragedy.

In the end, I can only hope that despite the very comic book title, Penguin People have given an opportunity to think about the world in which we live, and specifically whoever we take care of and who we condemn it … Thank you for reading.
