Melora Hardin, take a bow.

For viewers closer in age to Hardin’s Jacqueline Carlyle, her version of a woman in charge is a refreshing subversion of this damaging archetype. The younger characters are the stars of the show, but Hardin’s Jacqueline is a nurturing force who pushes her employees to do their better as opposed to whipping them. And it’s under her leadership, and Watson’s careful shaping the story, that Scarlet thrives on support and collaboration as opposed to rivalry.

Mia asked if she would ever feel normal again, and I can only speak from my own experience, but I would say the answer is no. But you find a new normal, and it works so well that sometimes you don’t even know that it’s not. I don’t think I realized how much of the weight I was still carrying. 

One night he asked me to stay late. He said that he wanted to help me with my story. That it had potential but it needed work. And I accepted. Gratefully. That was not an invitation but he took it that way. We were the only ones in the office that night and…I had never felt so powerless.
