I get what you mean, because what we’ve seen on screen of them is usually to serve plot, so it’s mostly there for exposition or to be ruined for drama, but, there have been some great moments throughout, I can believe that off screen and especially before the show started, they had what we’re mostly now told is a good friendship. And I did really like the start of the return to something in the latest ep.
And yeah, gosh, the way Maya sees things…please, just send her to therapy, show. How did what she dropped to Tracie Thoms’s character not ring loud ass alarm bells?? Of course if she sees Carina as perfect and her as undeserving she’s always going to rush to sabotage things. A different show would do a LOT differently! But this is the one we’re watching, heh.
