Here’s the thing, you’re absolutely right.
But I’m definitely excited about the idea that we’ve left that territory for a while.

But I feel like this final episode ends on a high and hopeful note, looking into the future.
And the fact that I got to even play her is a separate fact.
It feelsDickinsonintroduced Emily to a new generation.
