Soames plans on ending Morgana's contract, however it's too late, MI6's security is breached and Morgana tells Soames she's really a BND agent and then escapes. In Season 2, Adele meets Morgana and says they were successful. Adele tries to phone Charlie Bradshaw, her sister, however Morgana is adament it'll backfire.

## Trivia

* Camila Mendes' ties to Riverdale made shooting difficult and is partly why Morgana disappeared in Season 3.
* It was Mendes' idea to make Morgana Flavian Taylor's significant other in Season 4, despite it ultimately leading to her demise. She said she "didn't mind being a full baddie", despite wanting to originally play Charlie Bradshaw.
* Mendes auditioned for 3 other parts, Charlie, Adele and Lea, who they were already casting for in Season 1. Lea Klaus' role eventually was given to Robbie after initially being given to *Pretty Little Liars'* star, Shay Mitchell.
