I’m sure many of us “Under the Dome” fans remember Junior’s (Alexander Koch) last words after the “four hands” unlocked the mini-done. If you don’t, here’s a reminder below:
Well Junior, we don’t know. However, according to an interview executive producer Neal Baer recently did with TVGuide.com, it may not be long till we find out.
"The last three episodes dive deeply into exploring that question," Baer told the website. "The power of the four hands will soon be revealed."
There’s still that little issue about the Monarch that “will be crowned.”
"All we know is that the caterpillar has the potential to turn into a Monarch butterfly," the executive producer said. "So the question is how this Monarch butterfly, trapped under the mini-dome, will lead to the crowning of 'The Monarch.'"
If the Monarch is one of the children, let’s hope its Joe (Colin Ford). It was nice to see him try to defend his sister last week and it appears he is the smartest and kindest of the group.
However, it seems like all signs are pointing to Junior. His mother somehow knew about the Dome way before it came down. Also if we’re going on the order of people who had seizures, Junior had his years before Angie (Britt Robertsone), Joe and Norrie. If Junior does turn out to be the Monarch let’s hope his crazy streak has ended.
Baer also said there will be life changing events that affect the older love birds of the show, Barbie (Mike Vogel) and Julia (Rachelle Lefevre). Although it seems as if things are on an uptick in their relationship—seeing as Julia all but forgave him for killing her husband—Baer said things won’t be peachy for long.
"Something shocking happens in [Monday's] episode that puts [their trust] to a test," he hints. "A storm of emotions and a storm of unseen power is about to descend on Chester's Mill.
In other Dome news Sherriff Linda (Christina Martinez) and Big Jim (Dean Norris) will probably be at odds next episode. Although he agreed to come down to the station at the end of last week’s episode, Baer said things are going to be complicated when it comes to dealing with Big Jim.
"Does Big Jim ever fully cooperate with anyone? In a word, no," Bear said.
