Kindness is punk rock

Unless Barry insists he’s just a good actor and lays it all out on the line for Leia.

Plot Bunnies: Leia Cousineau

Once upon a time, Leia Cousineau was on her way to being a star.

Fresh-faced and talented, she was an upcoming “it girl” in Hollywood. That was, until an older actor tried to take advantage of her behind closed doors and Leia quit professionally acting.

Now- she helps her washed-up but somewhat well-respected father, Gene, run his acting classes. It’s the only way she can still gain any respect from him, without revealing to him why she really stopped going out for auditions.

Enter Barry Berkman- or, as he tells Gene after giving a strange, improvised monologue to the father-daughter duo about killing people professionally, Barry Block.

Leia finds herself drawn to Barry- enough to tell him after one drunken night at Residuals about the actor that tried to assault her once upon a time.

When said-actor ends up dead under mysterious circumstances, Leia can’t help but have her suspicions.

He is Down Bad for one (1) soft girl who thinks murder can be justifiable-
