Ghosts
Currently in its fourth season, CBS’Ghostshas already been renewed for seasons 5 and 6.
New episodes air Thursdays at 8:30 p.m. At the end of season 2, Sam assumes Flower has found peace when she goes missing.
ScreenRant: I love that Flower pulled one over on Trevor and Hetty in Episode 18.
How did it feel for you to have that moment?
Sheila Carrasco: So good.
As you were reading the script, did you expect that’s where the story may be going?

Sheila Carrasco: I really didn’t have any idea.
So that being said, as I was reading it, I did not see it coming.
It was so satisfying when I did.
Ghosts (2019) follows a financially struggling young couple who inherit a dilapidated country house, only to discover it is inhabited by the spirits of its former residents.
A few episodes ago, we found out Flower was conned by Bruce about the apocalypse.
Do you feel this story served as a redemption for her?
Sheila Carrasco: I think so.
If anything, it’s the beginning of a redemption for her.
Not that she hasn’t always been capable of it, but we haven’t always seen it.
She just doesn’t choose to manipulate.
She doesn’t want to, but in this case, she needed to because Trevor overstepped.
Sheila Carrasco: Yes.
I think that she’s definitely happy.
I think that she needs more closure with her actual family.
I want to know more about her family.
I want to know who she ran away from.
I’d like to find out what that reason is.
I think she feels part of the family even though she’s a bit of a screw-up sometimes.
But I also think that there’s more that she needs to find out for her own self-love.
I think she needs to love herself more and forgive herself more.
I also think that there’s more apologizing she can do to Jay for the restaurant.
I think that real growth for her would be to remember these lessons and to make amends for that.
So I hope that for her.
Sam was pretty angry at Flower, which doesn’t happen often.
Did Flower expect that reaction?
I would totally get it if you didn’t want to."
She’s not fighting for herself in this situation.
She’s not saying, “Hey guys, come on.
I thought I was trying to do the best.
She knew she messed up.
She was like, “Listen, we’ve been working so hard to open this restaurant.
And so I think that’s real.
I think that’s real life.
We see this happening over and over again.
And so she’s really upset about that too.
She truly is the mom.
Sheila Carrasco: She really will.
I mean, she also just wants to belong.
I think that Sam and Flower have a lot in common.
She’s just that really reliable, great friend that’s really easy to take advantage of.
They’re not experiencing everything new together all the time.
And what I really love about Flower and Thor is they’re not entirely codependent.
They’re not in every single storyline arm in arm.
They go through things separately, which also makes a lot of sense.
I mean, they’ve basically been roommates for 50, 60 years.
When they have fights, how do they cope?
And when they experience new highs?
It’s going to be interesting.
Sheila Carrasco: I’ve always said it would be to talk to animals and communicate with them.
I don’t know how that works as a ghost.
I don’t think that that’s even a ghost thing.
It’s just what Sheila wants in life.
But also, you know how Pete can travel?
I think it would be really cool if there was a ghost phone of some kind.
