SPOILER ALERT: This interview contains spoilers from “Poker Face” Episode 8, titled “The Orpheus Syndrome,” now streaming on Peacock. “Poker Face” took on a &#8220…

The Thursday episode of Rian Johnson’s hit Peacock howdunit followed Lyonne’s human lie-detector Charlie Cale in her latest murder mystery, guest starring Nick Nolte,, Luis Guzmán, Tim Russ and Rowan Blanchard. This case, which ended up being a double homicide, hit her particularly hard after she grew very close to the second victim, a monster-movie maker named Arthur whom she began working for in his creature-feature shop at the top of the episode.

Jones agrees with her co-star and director on this one: “I do think she could have stayed there in that barn with Nick Nolte until the end of time and she would have taught the next generation. She would have become a master. And I mean, anyone who could enjoy fake blood sandwiches that much, it’s gotta be in her blood.”

Based on that scene alone, Jones understood a great deal about her character and what other crimes she could have committed to get ahead — the crimes that haunted her before she jumped to her death at the end of the episode. “We had fun marrying the style of particular episode as very heightened aesthetically, while still playing all the games that Rian established in the pilot,” Lyonne said. “So it feels like ‘Poker Face,’ but from inside the warped minds of Cherry Jones and Nick Nolte.”
