She’s taking control of and responsibility for her own future.

He’s been the one who has stood by her and been the nonjudgmental, platonic friend.

It’s what pushed her over the edge.

CHESSLER:Very simply, Matty is the one person that Sadie respects the most.

And that’s been the closest friendship.

Anybody else, she could kind of blow off.

[Laughs] Not well.

CHESSLER:We wanted Sadie to have a big awakening.

We talked about ways that Sadie could end up hurting herself.

This is the one that felt right.

ALBERGHINI:And also to shine a light on how utterly annoying most voice recognition software is.

[Laughs]

Luke and Jenna have a falling out.

Those things you once found charming and cute, you now find maybe a little bit annoying.

Matty and Jenna return to the closet where it all began.

CHESSLER:We made that decision pretty early on when we sat down and talked about season 5.

We felt it was important to go back to that place.

Go have your own life.

Don’t be determining your future based on who your boyfriend is going to be."

That just felt very right for the show and for Jenna and where she is.
