So everything isn't tears. There's definitely some comedy in this show. Which brings me to Jay Duplass because how did you feel about working with him? He plays Molly's husband in the show and there are some amazing scenes that are just so layered and good. What was it like?

He's a gem. One of my favorite scenes is when Molly attempts to seduce him and give him a blowjob and he bursts into tears. And it is all so wrong, but so right at the same time. How did the two of you figure out that balance?

Were there any other scenes with Jay that felt particularly special to you? Or difficult?

Good partner in crime, huh? Oh, yeah.

Oh, I agree. One of my favorite characters in this whole show is Neighbor Guy, which I think is hilarious that Rob Delaney, being the actor that he is, is playing someone named Neighbor Guy. It's so amazing. He is kind of a combination of a few of the men that were in Molly's life sort of lumped into one, which I love that we did that.

And there's such a vulnerability that's required out of him and also like a really cool strength that And you have a literal sub-dom, like, relationship over time with him. Like, you guys figure out that, you know, you're the dom, he's the sub. And I love that it takes a turn from the sub-dom into this really accidental, emotional relationship where you actually fall in love.

I want to know about your on-set experiences with him and working with him in that way. Wow.

The scene that I just love so much is you're kind of taking charge and you realize that you really love shaming him and he really loves the sexual shaming and then it turns into you kicking him in the dick. I know it was a very serious scene because you guys were really in it. Like, they weren't laughing during the scene, but I could not stop laughing. How do you root yourself in a scene...

It's kicking someone in the dick. How do you stay in that and stay focused on like what's really happening there?
