This post contains details from the two-part Season 3 finale ofFoxsThe Cleaning Lady.
It appears Thony De La Rosa has escaped the clutches of the Sin Cara cartel.
For now, at least.
The Cleaning LadyLewis Jacobs/FOX
Well, that plan is quickly foiled when Ramona intercepts Thony and Nadia, finishing the job herself.
With Nadia gone, Thony is convinced that shes next, but Ramona has other plans.
You know what they say about keeping your enemies closer.
Little does she know (or does she?
), Thony only doubles down on feeding information to the FBI.
After being saved by Chris, Camila joins Thonys family in assisting the FBI with their investigation.
At first, it seems Jorge may have changed his mind about playing nice with the FBI.
It is his sister hes betraying, after all.
And with that, all is set right.
Jorge assures Thony that the cartel will leave her be.
So why does she receive a burner phone call from her contact Derek along with another job offer?
Do you think shes out for good?
ELODIE YUNG:I think theres a pattern with Thony there.
She always fights her way out of tricky situations…working with the mob, working with the cartel.
So I really cant tell you what they have in store for me in Season 4.
I cant wait to see which direction were gonna go with Thony next season.
Shes very human, which I love, by the way, about this character.
Theres nothing perfect about Thony.
So I really dont know.
I cant tell you where its going to head.
But Im sure theyll have interesting things for us in Season 4.
DEADLINE: What do you think keeps sucking her back in?
I feel like theres been a few opportunities for her to just wipe her hands clean of it.
YUNG:In Season 2, I felt like she was in kind of autopilot mode.
Things were overwhelming, and she was just trying to react as things were coming her way.
So she was kind of drowning in a way, emotionally drowning.
I think forces us in times to make mistakes.
I think its a mixture of this.
Also, in the writers room, they take pleasure in throwing her in really difficult situations.
So he has to be reactive.
DEADLINE: Im glad you mentioned all that she was juggling with.
How was it as an actor to unravel all of that?
YUNG:I dont see things ahead.
I received those scripts, and then this is the story that unfolds for me as well.
This is not what she knew.
Im very adamant to keep Thony very human.
I dont know if it translates well, but I really want to relate to her.
So then we can have real reactions from her.
What am I going to unfold and face this episode?
Every step she does, it needs to feel real to me.
I need to keep things grounded.
DEADLINE: Ramona is arrested at the end, but something tells me this isnt over.
How was working with Kate del Castillo?
Would you want to see her back?
YUNG:I absolutely loved working with Kate.
Shes just the best.
I know everyone has been very excited by her character.
I wouldnt be surprised that they would bring her back.
I would love for it to be the case.
Its just been great.
Shes huge in Mexico as well.
Shes just so down to earth and humble.
Throughout this season, we see the cracks, and we see the vulnerability.
How do you feel about the way that story ultimately ended?
YUNG:It started with the data pipe and the studio.
As a scene partner, as a friend, I think I was a shock.
I went through the pain of losing someone I absolutely adored and loved working with.
As I received the script, it was really hard.
He was a great man.
He was truly loved by everyone on set.
So theres like this energy part of me thats losing someone that I loved.
DEADLINE: When you heard the news about Season 4, what were your thoughts?
YUNG:My gosh, I jumped up and down in the air.
I mean, what a wonderful gift.
I am so grateful.
There are so little series that go to Season 4.
So that in itself just feels unreal.
Im so grateful for that.
Im so happy that they see the potential of this specific story.
Were talking about a single woman.
They embrace my roots, the Cambodian roots.
This is a great character.
The family around her, all of that needs to be put out there more.
To carry on being part of this project just feels…Im so happy.
I dont have words for that.
I cant believe it.
DEADLINE: Any hopes for Thony in Season 4?
YUNG:I need a minute to go camping…and spend time with my family.
Im very confident that theyll write something that will resonate with us and for the audience.
