Spoiler Room: Scoop on Bates Motel, Chicago PD, Vampire Diaries, and more – EW.com (blog)

Welcome to the Spoiler Room, a safe place for spoiler addicts to come on a weekly basis to learn whats coming next on their favorite shows and, hopefully, get a few of their own questions answered. If you want scoop on a specific show, send your questions to spoilerroom@ew.com.

Thanks for all the Rihanna scoop about Bates Motel. Do you have anything else about the final season? Gary As I recently mentioned, the new season picks up about 18 months after Normas death though not everyone is aware of her demise. Dylan still doesnt know that Norma has died, EP Kerry Ehrin tells me. Despite his role in her death, Norman is unsurprisingly living in denial and doesnt recognize that Norma is gone. For the most part, no. Its too painful of an admission to look at, Ehrin says. Norman is living in multiple realities and functioning at the moment.

Anything fun coming up for Linstead on Chicago P.D.? Faima Sorry to break it to you, but theres trouble brewing for Linstead. A past undisclosed relationship of Halsteads comes back into the picture, putting his relationship with Lindsay on the rocks, EP Matt Olmstead teases.

Got anything on Kais return to The Vampire Diaries? Jamie Lets not forget that Damon was the one who killed Kai so you can imagine there will be some tension there. Wait, just kidding. According to Chris Wood, Kai and Damon will find themselves on the same team. I dont think he really thinks too hard about what Damon did to him. Thats because he, in some ways, knows that he deserved it, Wood says. And Kais sharp enough and witty enough to talk himself out of a corner and, at least for the time being, gain an ally in Damon. However, the Kai-Damon dynamic is one were familiar with the two of them did share a prison world, after all so this time around, it sounds like Kai might get to interact with other characters. Theres some nice little surprise encounters, Wood teases. Also, did you see this and this?

Is there any chance you could get some Blue Bloods scoop? Helia I can exclusively reveal that Isaiah Washington has just signed on to guest star on Blue Bloods for the upcoming 150th episode, which is slated to air at the end of March. The 100 star will play ESU Deputy Chief Travis Jackson, who, on the eve of his mandatory retirement, goes up against Frank with an age-discrimination suit against the department.

Are we going to learn more about Maggie outside of her relationship with Alex on Supergirl? Jana Youll get a tidbit about Maggies background during the Valentines Day episode, but theres more to come down the line. Theres a storyline coming up where its not really about Alex and Maggies relationship, its more about Maggie as a cop getting caught up in an art heist, EP Andrew Kreisberg tells me.

When are Arizona and Eliza just going to go for it on Greys Anatomy? Katie It sounds like there will be some movement soon, but its certainly slow going, especially when Arizona tries to distance herself from Eliza in the wake of Thursdays episode. Eliza has a crazy uphill battle at Greys, Marika Dominczyk says. What happens this week rattles her and she has to pick herself up back again and decide how shes going to be moving forward.

Chicago Fire? Mary It sounds like theres also trouble ahead for Dawson and Casey! Dawsons dad, last seen drunkenly announcing his divorce, will soon be back. Dawson is going to invite him to live with Casey and her until he gets back on his feet, which will not be good for their young marriage.

Wheres that Thea scoop for Arrow that you promised on Superhero Insider? Kelsey Thea may have been MIA for quite a while, but Arrow will shine a light on her in a big way in the back half of the season. Shes headed in a direction thats very similar to where her mother was before she was killed in season 2, EP Wendy Mericle says. Im actually really excited about her storyline, because were taking her to a place where shes been dealing with all of these issues the same way Oliver has, with her bloodlust and with other elements of her past, and this seasons going to find her in a similar place, but for very different reasons. Theres gonna be a great scene coming up between Oliver and Thea thats one of my favorites on the show.

Just tell me: Is Rufus okay after getting shot in Chicago on Timeless?! Patricia If you mean still alive, then yes, dont worry! If you mean perfectly healthy, well Listen, hes one of our main characters and hes incredibly popular, EP Shawn Ryan says. I dont think were trying to seriously convince the audience that were about to kill him. Really what were trying to do is show the obstacles that he faces and that the team faces. Well address pretty quickly what his fate is. Feel better now?

Will we ever find out Sandstorms real name on Blindspot? Caroline Thats a negative, Caroline. Were a little nervous that theyre just so many names to keep straight already youve got the FBI, Zero division, Sandstorm, Jane Doe and now Alice Kruger, EP Martin Gero says. We felt like adding another name on top of Sandstorm was gilding the lily. Youre going to find out what they stand for and what they believe in, but I dont know that they have a name for themselves.

This week in TV: Dear Martin Gero, please make a Rich Dotcom spinoff. Thanks, Nat.
