Oh so the publisher – 23 times – scene was not how they first met? Was that explained to the audience because I just watched it and I could only see glimpses of their past? Or did I miss it?

No, I think that’s how she tracked her down after, but the first time they met was what we saw that first flashback, at the concert. The 23 times would have been after they already had broken up and it wasn’t referenced at any other time, no. The timeline would have been:

Meeting at the concert -> other little flashbacks like in the car, by the lake, on the bed, and so on -> breaking up -> the 23 times search -> Vera sending Frank to Alice -> Vera going to Frank and Alice -> decades of happiness -> Vera finally telling Alice she looked for her in 23 different shops

Finally watched Danielle’s lives and was totally surprised at how adorable she was. I don’t really know what I expected, actually I hadn’t thought about it? Don’t have social media so I only know her as Maya. Seeing her all smiley and sweet was different. I guess that’s the whole point ha, acting but she’s very talented and she really sells Maya the asshole(hot btw)/rage so well. Her and Vic are so natural in their roles, I want to see them in more, after Station19 ends.

Haha, that must have been such a surprise! It was for me. She really is so bubbly and friendly and nice and then is SUCH a hardass as Maya, even when you say it’s acting, which, it is, of course, but for a lot of actors, when their characters are normal people there’s a lot of overlap. Not really here at all, heh. It will be interesting to see her (and Barrett) in other roles, after the amount of time they’ve put into growing these ones.
