00:00So you got to revisit your character on Grey's Anatomy and throughout the years, you know,
00:04plane crash, custody battle, do you have like one storyline like, like Arizona specifically,
00:11but also on the show as a whole, that was just the most outrageous, for sure.
00:17I don't know why it's the first time I'm saying this, um, the hardest for me to shoot was
00:23the car accident and the musical episode, people have thoughts on the musical episode.
00:29They should.
00:30They should have thoughts.
00:31They should share them freely.
00:32Cause it's okay.
00:33Everyone gets to have an opinion.
00:34Uh, yeah.
00:35Tyler talked about the musical episode.
00:36Um, yeah, no, it was, it was a lot.
00:41It was a lot.
00:42It was just, it was a lot of, um, there was a lot of emotion.
00:45It was just like a very, it was meant to be, it was designed to be a high stakes episode
00:49and it was that, and it was hard.
00:51I mean, listen, ultimately I think that one of the things that were meant to make everyone
00:56watching feel is that it's so easy, right?
00:58That we just exist in this other dimension and we are these characters and we make all
01:02this happen.
01:03And the good news.
01:05And I guess the compliment to us on some level is that if you think that we're doing our
01:08job because it's anything, but it's anything but easy.
01:12It's um, I mean, listen, there's times that are easy, but then there's times that are
01:16really hard and shooting episodes like that where there's just like a lot of high intensity
01:21is hard.
01:22Right.
01:23I'm sure.
01:24I can't even imagine.
01:25So tell me about grace, but also tell me lies because take it on a life of its own.
01:30Do you have any idea?
01:31It was going to be so huge.
01:32No, no, no, no.
01:33Naked and zeroed in.
01:34No way.
01:35Did I know that?
01:36And, um, it was so interesting because the book that it's based on, so I worked with
01:40Emma Roberts on holiday and she's so just, she's such a dynamic and incredible thinker
01:46and reader and her partner care price, um, is also the same and they have such an incredible
01:51partnership and they do so much.
01:53Um, when they started this, they called me and said, would you play this character?
01:57And I didn't, I hadn't read the book.
01:59So I said, yes, of course.
02:01And my character came up in the first season, like I think three episodes or something like
02:06that.
02:07Um, and I hadn't gotten to read the entire book, but I just read the scripts.
02:12And when I read the book, I was like, wait a second, this is where, you know, when you
02:18base something off of a book, sometimes you keep what they wrote and sometimes you change
02:23it a little bit.
02:24But I actually wish they'd kept what the book had because you didn't quite understand why
02:30she was so upset with her mother.
02:33But if you read the book, you understood that she slept with her, her mother did not just
02:42a guy.
02:43And I was like, Oh, why did you keep that super naughtiness?
02:45And yeah, I know, I know.
02:48I could have been way naughtier.
02:49Oh my God.
02:50I just got to be a little bit, a little bit naughty.
02:52I got to be very annoyed by me, but, um, yeah, it was so much fun.
02:55And honestly, everyone in that show is so good.
02:58And I've been so pleased and excited to just to hear everyone's, you know, I think it's
03:03very addictive.
03:04Yeah.
03:05It is.
03:06And it's so funny to see like Jackson and Grace do interviews because they seem like
03:09really nice people.
03:10I know.
03:11And I was there from the beginning.
03:12I saw it all and I was like, and I really did.
03:14It was funny because I have a thing, I'm sorry, all actors, but I have a thing about actors
03:18and actresses.
03:19I'm like, I don't know, guys.
03:20I'm not sure it's a good idea.
03:21Whatever.
03:22And it was the very beginning of the show and they've publicly said all of this.
03:27So I'm not giving anything away.
03:29Um, but I remember looking at Gracie and being like, don't, don't go out with him.
03:32Don't go out with him.
03:33Don't go out with him.
03:34Don't go out with him.
03:35He's an actor.
03:36You're on a show.
03:37You know, it's a series.
03:38It can be dangerous.
03:39Meanwhile, they were already, they were already together.
03:40I had no idea.
03:41I'm like, all right.
03:42I mean, and then I really thought about it afterwards.
03:43I was like, I shouldn't have said that.
03:44You know what?
03:45It's all working out.
03:46It's all working out.
03:47Exactly.
03:48It's all good.
03:49It's all good.
