Man: That was good. Yeah.
Zabel: The number one thing I was excited about
was the Louvre flashback story for Genet.
Woman: The Mona Lisa is
the most valuable painting in history,
insured at £1 billion in today's currency.
Zabel: When we created the character of Genet
in the writers' room, we had this idea
that I always wanted to get to.
There just wasn't room in season one.
We had a lot of fish to fry.
But also it took about a year to plan
and be able to shoot at the Louvre.
Charrier: You always see the Louvre full of people,
and we had the Louvre for ourselves.
That was completely mad.
[Speaking French]
Nicotero: The idea was having the opportunity
to tell another perspective of the breakout
of the zombie apocalypse through the eyes of a character.
Charrier: She doesn't know about zombie at that time.
They wake up in a nightmare. They don't know what's going on.
So they kind of see that people are going mad,
but they don't know exactly what the danger is.
Nicotero: And I think what's most important
about this sequence is it's the genesis of Genet's
transformation into the character that she is now.
Genet is this simple woman in love with her husband,
planning to have a family,
and that is taken away from her.
[Growling]
[Screaming]
Zabel: It's part of the reason she holds the baby
in season one the way she holds the baby.
A lot of people had questions about that.
It's because she's thinking of the baby
she never had with her husband.
[Sobbing]
Charrier: The worst in her comes from that pain that she had,
and I had to build it,
even not knowing exactly where the traumatize was.
I had to build her around something
that was really painful for her.
Zabel: The Mona Lisa is a figure who --
she's hiding something.
You don't know exactly what she's thinking,
but she's watching.
And obviously that became very symbolic
to Genet as a character.
She relates to it.
Charrier: It's one of the greatest memory of work I have.
Having the Louvre for ourselves
and having that tête-à-tête with the Mona Lisa,
who can experience that, you know?
That's a very special memory.

are characters who have been underestimated
and misunderstood in the past,
but are very powerful, each in their own way.
So we thought that was very fascinating
to put those two characters together
because of some of the similarities that they have,
but also the differences.
McBride: Carol absolutely relates to Genet
in how this world has affected her.
The losses. The forgiveness.
The guilt. The forgiveness again.
Nicotero: It's really a great opportunity
to see these two women sort of eye each other up
and figure out how they can get
what they need out of each other.
Charrier: Those scenes in the Maison Mère

Scigliuzzi: Wow, that was a great day shooting the ceremony.
It was hard 'cause I had to have my eyes like this.

'cause I had to walk kind of like a walker.
The real twist is Sylvie's part of the ceremony,
and I gasped [Gasps] when I read that.
[Man shouting in French]
Aaah! Sylvie!
[Indistinct conversations]
Zabel: We always wanted Sylvie to have a heroic story
where she gets killed trying to save Laurent.
And at the same time,
we were figuring out this story about the ceremony and the test.
And I said to the room, "It would be a special walker."
So if Sylvie happens to have died at the right time,
then she would be the right one to use as the walker.
[Growling] [People gasping]
Richman: All the time we sort of fretted about
telling an actress that she's going to die.
But the real hardest part was how, for us,
because her reaction was she was really excited.
Blanc-Francard: The fact that Sylvie died trying to save Laurent,
I think it's the best way for her to die, honestly.
And I was really excited to play a zombie.
