Ahead of the finale, which was aired on August 23, Hauser talked with Esquire about his character's possible future with Beth.

"I think that world is starting to open up. That's absolutely something that could happen," Hauser told the outlet. "You're going to see how it shakes out at the end, but... we'll see where Taylor takes us."

"I don't sit with him and say, 'Hey, by year seven, are we here or there?' That relationship," he added. While their relationship could go many different ways, he said, there's a strong likelihood they'll manage to stay together.
