It's oftentimes something that we really explore on Betrayal when people are saying, how did you not know?
Or why did this person make that decision?
People really come at the decision making's
of these subjects and I feel like what's more important is to understand that these decisions are being made in survival mode.
She doesn't really understand what her options are.
She feels like there's very little options and so it's less about meaning making but more about
It's in those moments of decisions that I think you can really see a human and it feels like a human story as opposed to something that's like kind of watered down.
or distilled for the sake of like the audience right like let's make this digestible for somebody else to understand but the reality is is that people make decisions all the time that we don't understand and unfortunately she got in a situation where she was with someone who um was really mentally ill and then ended up taking people's lives
How did you hold space for both Margo's perspective, Tanya's perspective, and the victims and the victims' families of this case?
Because that must have been really hard.
Um, that's tragic.
One of the things that feels really important to me when we were really exploring the story, and maybe this is just the feminist in me, but it became very clear, very early on based on the set of circumstances that Tanya was under and how sick Glenn Nash was that this is actually like, it's not, not a betrayal story, Cooper.
In some ways.
Yeah.
And for me, what felt like the first one, the first big one, right, was when they both get arrested and Nash, you know, he gets he's it's decided that he's, you know, criminally insane.
He can't he can't stand trial.
He's
goes to a mental institution, he's committed.
And now Margo has to face justice.
She has the justice system on behalf of something that he did.
