A Young Sheldon season 7 set image confirms Lance Barber and Zoe Perry’s last filmed scene as George and Mary. With only four episodes left until it officially ends, everything is starting to come together for The Big Bang Theory prequel. While Young Sheldon season 7, episode 10 was a disappointment, the next couple of double-headers are expected to deliver a satisfying conclusion not just to Sheldon’s arc in Medford, Texas, but also to the Coopers’ collective story.
As shared by director Alex Reid on his official Instagram account, Barber and Perry pose after they filmed their last couple scene as George and Mary in Young Sheldon. Check out the image below:
The image shows Barber and Perry in George and Mary’s bedroom. Reid doesn’t share, however, any additional context as to what the Young Sheldon season 7 scene is about. He also doesn’t reveal when this sequence will air.
What George & Mary’s Final Filmed Scene Reveals About Young Sheldon’s Finale
George & Mary’s Scene May Have Clues About The Coopers’ Future.
YoungSheldon will end with a special one-hour finale on May 16. It’s unlikely, however, that the scene that Barber and Perry filmed will be part of those last two episodes for a few reasons. Firstly, the sequence has already been revealed in the Young Sheldon season 7, episode 11 and 12 trailer, where the pair appears to have finished a heart-to-heart talk. Based on what’s known about their arc, Mary will be once again hit with baby fever, prompting George to go behind her back to get a vasectomy.
Secondly, it has already been confirmed that George’s funeral will take place in Young Sheldon‘s penultimate episode. It doesn’t seem like the writers will delay the Cooper patriarch’s death towards the end of the outing since it will sabotage Young Sheldon‘s chances of a happy ending. This means that George will likely die at the end of episode 12 or the very beginning of episode 13. Regardless, there’s no time left for this scene to play out. It would be a disservice to the actors and their respective characters if their last scene together is rushed.
After seven seasons, Young Sheldon officially solves its oldest The Big Bang Theory plot hole concerning Lance Barber’s role in the franchise.
It’s no secret that George and Mary’s married life has been tumultuous in Young Sheldon. However, recent episodes have shown how far they’ve come after they almost split up because of their respective borderline affairs. Seeing their final scene to be loving and happy is the ideal way to cap off their story, although it will make George’s death more heartbreaking.
