Lila looking serious next to Five looking worried in The Umbrella Academy
Summary The Umbrella Academy showrunner Steve Blackman has explained why season 4 contained a divisive storyline between Lila and Five, defending why it happened. During The Umbrella Academy season 4, episode 5, Lila and Five end up stranded for multiple years in a waypoint between time, forced to grow closer to each other because of no one else being around. This results in an unexpected romance, despite the former being married to Five's brother, Diego.
Well, you know, I sat with the writers and we said, 'What would happen if you spent seven years with someone and we're starting to give up ever coming home?' I mean, some of it speaks to the domestic problems between Lila and Diego. And part of it has to do with that, as much as Five and Lila would hate to say it, they're very similar. They've been fighting so hard all the seasons, but alone, they realised they have a lot in common. They're very similar people.
However, what makes the romantic connection between the two so divisive is that it happens over the course of a single episode, despite so much buildup between Lila and Diego in previous seasons. Even though the passage of time can justify the new romantic subplot, it doesn't feel as justified because of how quickly it happens through the lens of the audience. It's also made even more controversial because it happens in the show's second-to-last episode.
