And so, I've heard a lot of well, we were thinking about doing this. I mean, Jason would occasionally tell me about storylines that they were batting around in the writers' room and depending on how things go, every character has a bunch of different journeys that they explore and I guess the writers kind of crunch over it and mull over it and see what makes sense and what supports what they need to do that season. How much of Echo's back story did you actually know beforehand to inform your performance over the past few years? This season has been so big and there's been so much new territory to cover that I was worried that we weren't going to get an opportunity to peek into her backstory but, lo and behold, we did. So, it was awesome and I was really looking forward to it and it was kind of going back and forth. We all hypothesized and I obviously didn't develop as much as I could, but I was so curious and so excited to see how the writers were going to elaborate on this and what they were going to bestow upon her and whether that lined up with what I had researched about traumas that made sense in terms of how she's developed as an adult. How exciting was it to finally get to tell Echo's backstory and see some of where she started? Tasya Teles: I think that's been a big part of what's missing in her storyline, you know? Everybody has a sense of history or at least some sort of story of where they came from, and she was the only one that nobody knew anything about. Tasya Teles, The 100 Diyah Pera, Diyah Pera/The CW
