TheResort showrunner Andy Siara breaks down the most pivotal moments of Episode 5, 'El Espejo,' and why Baltasar is the Captain America of both timelines.

Editor's note: The below interview contains spoilers for Episode 5 of The Resort.From showrunner and executive producer Andy Siara , The Resort is a comedy-mystery series unlike no other. The premise may start off in a familiar place: married couple Noah and Emma decide to vacation in the Mayan Riviera at the Oceana Vista Resort for their anniversary. The two have clearly been out of touch for some time, and the trip itself may or may not make all the difference.

ANDY SIARA: The mural has the answer to everything, but we don't really, necessarily, revisit it. Similar to the phone, I felt by the end of Episode 3, "We've seen this phone enough. Let's just throw it down an elevator shaft." [After] 3, 4, and 5? Okay, enough of the mural. We don't need to revisit it. If anyone wants to study it, they can go back and pause it and take a look. It's a very significant thing for sure that...

Captain American is the center of that universe in many ways, and so too, Baltasar became this center of the resort. Luis has talked about this too, where when we offered this part to him, I wrote him this letter, and I was like "This is a very, very important character to me on a very deep level. He's one of the main characters of the show. Truly a lead of the show." And I sent him the first two episodes where he's barely in it at all.

SIARA: Another thing I would say in the room is that we can look at these episodes and especially this episode, but in this turning point after Episode 4 and Baltasar's entry into it all through this metaphorical lens of a couple who needs therapy, and here's a bad therapist that comes into play. [He's] a therapist that maybe is not asking necessarily the right questions, because Baltasar is a very flawed character as well. He's not this perfect therapist coming in.

To your point, we see it happen in a literal way in the jungle at the end of the episode, because Noah is telling Luna about what happened, with them and losing the baby, and Emma is completely retreating into herself. What does that point signify about the relationship? How might it change?
