That's fair.

My thing with the co-workers is that they start off as cartoons.

As we go along, it gets better.

But in the first few episodes, they felt totally inhuman and

shticky cartoon characters and particularly as Paula is this like really interesting dynamic human lived in person they really stood out to me as like they could have been animated drawn in there like they look so so silly at the beginning yeah it does get better but I think that this show one of the things that it does really well is it like misdirects right so you think maybe it's going to be a standoff between Paula and

one of the bad guys.

And then, you know, it goes in sort of all these different directions.

And in that route, those characters are able to grow.

I don't actually think they fully surpass, like fully outgrow their cartoonishness, but they do get less silly.

She's so good.

Yeah.

She feels like a real person.

And one of the things I like about her, and you mentioned this earlier, Aisha, was like,

The show really plays with our understanding of reality and how you can tell, particularly with what's happening online, with what is true and what is not true.

Paula really believes that her relationship with Trevor is genuine, that they have this real emotional connection, and then is thrown in this tailspin when it's not.

And that's one of the ways, but it's throughout the show, right?

It's her as a fact checker.

It's as the characters move through and talk to each other.

It's the annoying coworker friends and what they hide from each other and what they don't.

And it's also in how the show is constructed with all of its multiple redirections.
