To start with that long walk where we get to see all of the different masks she needs to wear and skins she needs to inhabit and the different people she needs to be for everybody she might interact with at any given moment, and then to build toward a, like, shocking – a shocking dropping of the mask. Like I will be free and let the hair loose and drink and dance.

And like the burden has become so crushing that I have to, for just a second, like shake it off. Um, You do that not because you need it in the moment. Yeah. Yeah, but because you know there's not going to be a lot of other moments for it moving forward. Like, it's just, like, so keen.

Do it with the room. We go on this hike. It's part of the tradition. We get a little, like, I don't remember how this works, some exposition, but mostly the purpose of that scene, we move from Perrin to Perrin and Davo to... the young bride and groom-to-be. But really, it's about this moment with Mon and Vel where Mon asks about Cinta, her friend.

You know? Yeah, yeah. Your friend, Cinta? Yeah, that was handy. I loved the idea here because we learned from Vel that she hasn't actually seen Cinta in a while. And she says, like, if she wanted to see me, she would. It was never going to be perfect or good, really. That killed me. Or good, really. Bad timing. Mon says she's sorry and Vel says there's work to be done.

But then Mon says, we have to live to do it, though, don't we? And this felt like such a crucial counterweight to actually a conversation that Cinta and Vel had on Ferex in season one, in episode eight, when Cinta said the struggle will always come first. We take what's left. And Vel was so shaken by that and hurt by it. And also in some ways, like,
