Speaker 1: I just I just love collaboration. In all four I
Speaker 1: did I did over the past year. It was so fun.
Speaker 1: My friends have this excellent clothing and.
Speaker 5: Company, and I love clothes, so I got to step
Speaker 5: into their world and do that together.
Speaker 2: I feel it could be so good at that you
Speaker 2: have like excellent taste and beautiful.
Speaker 5: You say that, and I wish I could show you
Speaker 5: a photo album and you remember you.
Speaker 1: Were there of some of the insane things I used
Speaker 1: to wear.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know what, you have to try those
Speaker 2: things out. You got to take risks, swing big. You're
Speaker 2: not going to get them all uh huh.
Speaker 4: But the Queen of the dresses would show up like
Speaker 4: to set where I'd be in like sweatpants and a
Speaker 4: graphic tea, and Diana would show up in like a
Speaker 4: beautiful floral printed dress at seven in the morning, and like,
Speaker 4: how does she do it?
Speaker 1: Maybe she will?
Speaker 2: Wait, Yes, that's fair. The power of clothing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, Well, we're so grateful to have
Speaker 4: you here. It's so good to see you in the
Speaker 4: flash here. I am I Diana and I got on
Speaker 4: the phone. When was that like a month ago?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was so nice.
Speaker 4: It's been so long, but it's always so nice because
Speaker 4: everybody just picks up where.
Speaker 1: We left off. Oh yeah, do you feel that? What's
Speaker 1: the joy of it? Kevin and I walking down the street.
Speaker 1: I wish our phone call.
Speaker 5: I wish you could have just pulled me through the
Speaker 5: phone and I could have been standing in front of you.
Speaker 5: Very doyful to be with heaven walking the streets, pretty
Speaker 5: pump set memories.
Speaker 1: But I agree, it does feel.
Speaker 5: Every single time like no time has passed, And I
Speaker 5: think that just speaks to the depth of our friendships
Speaker 5: and our life experience together.
Speaker 2: Yes, we we were talking about because we've had lots
Speaker 2: of crew members on the show as well, and how
Speaker 2: they obviously, you know, see a lot more sets than
Speaker 2: we do. They've worked a lot more in this business
Speaker 2: that we work periodically, and the fact that they even
Speaker 2: have that same feeling that we do. You see anybody
Speaker 2: from the crew at any point and it feels like
Speaker 2: nothing has changed and how that speaks to the like
Speaker 2: you just said, the depth and not just the cast,
Speaker 2: but everybody that worked on that show, which I think
Speaker 2: is just really special.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean we were we weren't working ten months of
Speaker 1: the year on set.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then together hours very nuch great every month
Speaker 4: of the year.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: And then every month of the year together whether it
Speaker 5: was on set or on the road.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Like, as I said that, I just had a flashback
Speaker 5: to Australia.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, oh my. I talked about you the
Speaker 2: other day to my mom and her friend because her
Speaker 2: friend was saying that, you know, they went to Australia
Speaker 2: and do you know there are penguins in Australia. And
Speaker 2: I'm like, actually, I do know there are pinguins in
Speaker 2: Australia because and Diana got on a bus.
Speaker 5: I got on a bus to see those baby penguins.
Speaker 5: It must have been because it was when we were
Speaker 5: in Melbourne. Yes, and I mean it was kind of
Speaker 5: an insane excursion.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's why we all didn't go.
Speaker 1: Well, we're tired. You had just flown over to Australia.
Speaker 3: Diana like we must do something.
Speaker 4: She's like, should we go to New Zealand and I
Speaker 4: was like, I think that's a little too far. She's like,
Speaker 4: but should we see the penguins? And I was like, Diana,
Speaker 4: I think I'm really tired and I think I'm gonna
Speaker 4: go lay down. She was like, I think I'm gonna
Speaker 4: go on this bus.
Speaker 2: She was like already back by the time we woke up.
Speaker 5: Oh, that trip was magnificent and really before we knew
Speaker 5: the scale of what was to become.
Speaker 2: Do you remember returning back and it was like everything
Speaker 2: had changed, Like that was like our last moment of
Speaker 2: you know, like somewhat normalcy.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and definitely uncertainty because we've shot pilot at that
Speaker 5: point seven or eight months before.
Speaker 1: We shop the pilot in what October of that?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yes, And then that was May, so the pilot
Speaker 5: had broadcast of the American Idol and then we had
Speaker 5: gone to Australia on our break and then we knew
Speaker 5: the official.
Speaker 1: Pickup and that we were filming in the fall. Yeah. Wild.
Speaker 4: The craziest cart was through, you know, the time between
Speaker 4: the pilot airing, shooting, filming the pilot right and then
Speaker 4: it airing and actually going into season one, we didn't
Speaker 4: really film with you in the pilot, we spent time with.
Speaker 2: You, time a tiny bit of and I remember.
Speaker 1: It so vividly.
Speaker 4: It feels like longer and more time during the pilot,
Speaker 4: but it was it was a fraction, and you came
Speaker 4: on so late to the pilot.
Speaker 3: I think that we have just right. So what remind
Speaker 3: us what that process was like for you?
Speaker 1: Because it was so fast, it was so fast.
Speaker 5: I I had read the pilot and was going in
Speaker 5: for Robert, and I went and I say, because you know,
Speaker 5: the instruction was singing eight bars of a song, trying
Speaker 5: that might be a non typical song. And I had
Speaker 5: just recently for my birthday been at the Dresden in
Speaker 5: Los Angeles and gotten up. It's like such a jazz
Speaker 5: place and which Laane rip there's wonderful performers in community
Speaker 5: organizers at Svential place in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1: And for some reason, one of my friends it was
Speaker 1: my birthday and they were like, I don't know, Frank Sinultra,
Speaker 1: that feels right for this joint.
Speaker 5: And it's like, I guess I'm going to sing fly
Speaker 5: Me to the Moon. Because also I you guys could
Speaker 5: speak to this. It's very rare that I know the
Speaker 5: lyrics of a song. I know the melody to a tea.
Speaker 5: I hear melody before I hear lyrics, ye saying that,
Speaker 5: and then that ended up being what I sang for
Speaker 5: Robert because I just thought, oh well, I just did
Speaker 5: this in front of people at the dress end and
Speaker 5: I had to come back two days later, and they
Speaker 5: said and I was already out in another audition, driving
Speaker 5: across town.
Speaker 1: I think it was in Santa Monica.
Speaker 2: Always it's always Santa Monica.
Speaker 5: Oh way, well, Samonica because it's far away from wherever
Speaker 5: you live, you know, Last Journey and I the instruction was,
Speaker 5: we're something a little sexier and can you straighten your hair?
Speaker 6: Like oh no, and uh, and so I go again
Speaker 6: and then they tell me on you're gonna go screen
Speaker 6: test or test yeah, And I showed up on the
Speaker 6: Fox lot.
Speaker 5: I was terribly early because I was so nervous that
Speaker 5: I didn't want to run the risk of doing anything.
Speaker 5: And then I walked in and they have me sign
Speaker 5: my paperwork and I tested for two.
Speaker 1: Other shows before that, so I kind of like new
Speaker 1: the drill.
Speaker 5: She's like okay, and then we're gonna go in for
Speaker 5: the executives and there's gonna be other people and maybe
Speaker 5: they're gonna be in the hallway.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm gonna look at them, maybe not, and then
Speaker 1: we'll see. And after I signed my paperwork, Cassie was like, Okay, great, it's.
Speaker 5: Yours and you're gonna go to set and do you
Speaker 5: want to see footage from the show.
Speaker 1: And I'm stunned at this point, because what do you
Speaker 1: mean I have to go read for somebody that this
Speaker 1: isn't how it goes.
Speaker 5: And I walked into that office and it was Corey
Speaker 5: singing to that bar of soap in the shower, and
Speaker 5: I had goosebums over my whole body, and I just thought,
Speaker 5: is going to be phenomenal.
Speaker 1: And if this goes.
Speaker 5: To air, this is exactly what I wanted. Because, by
Speaker 5: the way, I mean similar to you guys at music
Speaker 5: and musical theater was my huge passion. And so when
Speaker 5: I'm home to Los Angeles, I told anyone who would.
Speaker 1: Listen to me, oh, I'm really looking for a musical.
Speaker 1: They're like, great, go to New York.
Speaker 5: It's just like my families in San Francisco, and I
Speaker 5: really like to drive home and see my mom sometimes.
Speaker 5: So I'm going to try it in Los Angeles, and
Speaker 5: it's going to be a film or a TV show.
Speaker 1: I'm sure of it. And then cut to this and
Speaker 1: then I remember being on.
Speaker 5: Set and Naia and I because Heather wasn't present yet,
Speaker 5: that round out the Holy Trinity. And I remember seeing
Speaker 5: you guys coming from rehearsal and oh.
Speaker 1: You just looked so cool.
Speaker 5: You were like this cool, you were so bonded, and
Speaker 5: I remember being so nervous and offering some weird quick hello,
Speaker 5: this is why I'm so excited. They all like word
Speaker 5: vomiting all over you, and then you guys had to
Speaker 5: go off like you were being pulled at.
Speaker 2: What was that?
Speaker 1: Was that in Long Beach? Where was that?
Speaker 2: Yes, well I remember that, Yeah, but we were yeah,
Speaker 2: it was some other because we weren't like situated how
Speaker 2: we when the show got picked up. Yeah, in my memory,
Speaker 2: it's like where base camp was and everything was in
Speaker 2: a different place, like that was the only time it
Speaker 2: was there. And I remember you coming over and being
Speaker 2: so nice, and we did just have like a fleeting
Speaker 2: like hell, and we were like, oh, she seems nice
Speaker 2: because we were we had been together for like three
Speaker 2: weeks already. Yeah, and like hanging out and in rehearsal,
Speaker 2: and I also think that's probably was so I don't
Speaker 2: know if intimidating is the right word, but weird, like
Speaker 2: you're joining this thing so last minute.
Speaker 5: It was intimidating as hell, also because I just wanted
Speaker 5: to participate in the fun that you were having. Luckily
Speaker 5: I had Naya, so I wasn't load on an eyeland,
Speaker 5: but I was not We were not in group form,
Speaker 5: and then you know, we kind of the two of
Speaker 5: us were, you know, kind.
Speaker 1: Of guessing how it would go.
Speaker 5: And I think none three lines in the pilot, yep,
Speaker 5: I never anticipated. I had no understanding of where that
Speaker 5: character would go should I was just so happy to
Speaker 5: be there. It was so deeply thrilling, regardless of what happened.
Speaker 2: I do think that's interesting that because you and Naya
Speaker 2: had you both had done a lot of TV before,
Speaker 2: like a fair amount of TV before Glee.
Speaker 5: I mean, Nia, certainly I had done bits and bots
Speaker 5: here and there, But.
Speaker 1: It's a burrd.
Speaker 5: I just I loved my father so much, and he
Speaker 5: was supportive in a different way than my mother. But
Speaker 5: he would say these things that would really make me laugh.
Speaker 5: You would say, oh, I tuned in to Veronica Mars
Speaker 5: very exciting, but where was the rest of your character?
Speaker 1: Character? She had three lines, you know, and it was
Speaker 1: and I was, please just punch, you.
Speaker 5: Know, it's just about and you know, making the steps
Speaker 5: and moved forward. But I was I you know, but
Speaker 5: when I came to that pilot situation, or even as
Speaker 5: we were filming the first couple of episodes, I wouldn't
Speaker 5: say I was comfortable.
Speaker 1: How set. It was still such a new green place
Speaker 1: for me.
Speaker 4: That's so funny because I think like we didn't spend
Speaker 4: a lot of time. I also want to know what
Speaker 4: it was like filming don't stop for you, because it's
Speaker 4: so iconic when you guys step up, But like I
Speaker 4: was curious if you were seen any of it. But
Speaker 4: the other thing is like, it's so funny because at
Speaker 4: first glance, like you were on all these shows, you
Speaker 4: had like this resume that we came from like a
Speaker 4: totally different world.
Speaker 3: Kevin came from music.
Speaker 1: I came from New.
Speaker 4: York and so it felt like at least there was like, oh,
Speaker 4: these people who have been on Hollywood that's she knows, yeah,
Speaker 4: And then you were sort of this far off like
Speaker 4: character that was kind of this enemy to us at
Speaker 4: the beginning, and so initially.
Speaker 1: It was like, oh, she's like she had like a halo,
Speaker 1: you have.
Speaker 4: Like a halo in your head, and like you had
Speaker 4: like done this before, and we're like here we are,
Speaker 4: We're just bab bah buying. But very quickly after that,
Speaker 4: obviously we all melded very quickly, you know.
Speaker 2: Oh quickly obsessed with each other.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, oh.
Speaker 5: I and and I think that the chemistry that we had,
Speaker 5: both on screen and offscreen is such a testament to
Speaker 5: the casting.
Speaker 1: Of the show.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because it really when you look at all bus,
Speaker 5: when I look at the footage of us, we are
Speaker 5: such babies and we are so connected.
Speaker 1: It's Yes, it's really special to revisit.
Speaker 2: I have to say, yeah, you have you watched any
Speaker 2: of it since?
Speaker 5: So?
Speaker 2: I like clips online.
Speaker 5: Well, clips online keep coming back to me in a
Speaker 5: funny way, even you.
Speaker 1: Know, uh, I think there is.
Speaker 5: There's definitely we are consistently in the zeitgeist, and I
Speaker 5: guess that speaks to our show is constantly on whether
Speaker 5: it's you know, Netflix or Amazon Prime or Hulu, or
Speaker 5: people are watching this show in waves.
Speaker 1: There's never somebody that's not watching the show. Then I
Speaker 1: am stopped most days if I'm in a big city
Speaker 1: by somebody. The other day it was this mother.
Speaker 5: I was sitting in washermon like, eating this metal with
Speaker 5: my friend and this woman.
Speaker 1: I don't even know why I have to name an age.
Speaker 1: She was a mother children of a certain age.
Speaker 5: She didn't specify, and she said, I'm rewatching the show
Speaker 5: with my kids and.
Speaker 1: I'm having the best time, and it's so thrilling to
Speaker 1: see you here. And she grabbed my arm, and then
Speaker 1: she grabbed my friend's arms.
Speaker 5: She goes, then you found the most perfect Parishian boyspread.
Speaker 5: And my lovely friend, who's not Parisian at all, lives
Speaker 5: in New York, and he was like, he just found
Speaker 5: it very funny. He goes, I'm Mexican, but I loved
Speaker 5: the fantasy. She saw us in Paris in this moment,
Speaker 5: having this meal at this French cafe.
Speaker 1: It was just like, and look at you. But she
Speaker 1: was so overjoyed.
Speaker 5: And it's always very special to hear that the show
Speaker 5: resonates with people, for sure, but so yes, that feedback
Speaker 5: comes to you in real life, and then footage comes
Speaker 5: to you and the.
Speaker 1: Ent, whether you're tagged in something on Instagram, whether.
Speaker 2: You're looking for it or not, whether you're looking for
Speaker 2: or not.
Speaker 1: My friend, I guess this was two months ago, and
Speaker 1: I was shocked. She goes your dance, you and I
Speaker 1: and Heather singing say a little Prayer is viral on
Speaker 1: TikTok and she showed me it.
Speaker 5: Was all ages, all mixtures of people from all different places,
Speaker 5: and it went on for over a week. Yes, And
Speaker 5: I thought you would think that the show had just
Speaker 5: debuted with how And then I think that.
Speaker 1: Makes sense to me in.
Speaker 5: Some way, as a forty five second clip danced with
Speaker 5: delightfully delicious choreography from Zach that is understandable to people,
Speaker 5: and it's a fun trio, and there it was on
Speaker 5: the internet again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you guys are so iconic in that.
Speaker 5: Oh god, I remember the feeling of that so vividly,
Speaker 5: because one again nervous as hell. Two, Ryan was in
Speaker 5: the room with all of this great instruction and you know,
Speaker 5: sitting there in just such a regal way and really
Speaker 5: wanting to deliver for him. And then Nip Tuck was
Speaker 5: still filming, and so they came over and were watching.
Speaker 1: There was just a band operation.
Speaker 5: Rude to him, and I'm just like, oh wow or eyebills,
Speaker 5: A very professional people led to do this thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so I don't remember you guys feeling that.
Speaker 2: I have a picture of Ryan watching the monitor because
Speaker 2: I stayed after it because I was so excited, not
Speaker 2: thinking that more people in the room might make it
Speaker 2: more difficult for them, but I was just so excited
Speaker 2: to see it one because I didn't know you, like,
Speaker 2: we hadn't spent still at that point, like that much time,
Speaker 2: and I wanted to see it. I wanted to see
Speaker 2: everyone perform, and because I knew everyone was so good,
Speaker 2: and I was so excited, like sitting back there and
Speaker 2: watching Ryan's monitor. I mean, I have so many pictures
Speaker 2: of it because it's like, this is the greatest thing
Speaker 2: I've ever seen.
Speaker 5: That was such a fun moment that that's when it
Speaker 5: that's when the show really started feeling real to me.
Speaker 7: Yes, yes, because I really you perform in a musical
Speaker 7: number on our show, you're floating a little bit, and
Speaker 7: then once you're performing in that way, you're in the
Speaker 7: glee club, You're off to the races.
Speaker 8: You know.
Speaker 3: Yes, do you remember when do you remember when you
Speaker 3: found out that.
Speaker 1: You were going to be pregnant in the like did
Speaker 1: you read it? Really?
Speaker 2: One?
Speaker 1: And then it.
Speaker 5: Was Ryan this hilarious and very true to Ryan way
Speaker 5: I think it.
Speaker 1: I think we were filming the second episode and he
Speaker 1: was like.
Speaker 5: Yeah, funny, Quinn's gonna get pregnant in episode and we're
Speaker 5: gonna think it's Fin's baby, but really it's gonna be poxed.
Speaker 5: And then filming that scene in the hot tub with Corey. Yes,
Speaker 5: and that's how we got pregnant.
Speaker 1: That's delicious.
Speaker 5: It was you know, that storytelling was funny, but you
Speaker 5: give them.
Speaker 1: Totally.
Speaker 2: You had that first season. I mean Quinn's entire run
Speaker 2: on the show, you got put through the ringer.
Speaker 1: But like there were a lot of potion.
Speaker 2: Nobody went through as much as Quinn. Nobody's journey was
Speaker 2: quite like yours. Like that first season there was that
Speaker 2: comedy of like, you know, the hot tip scene, you
Speaker 2: were you had to cry in so many episodes. Then
Speaker 2: you're pregnant, you're fighting with people, like what was that?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 2: You knows delicious as an actor.
Speaker 5: Really truly, And I guess I was so delighted, And
Speaker 5: I think this applies to all of our characters. We
Speaker 5: might have started off as something that might have felt
Speaker 5: more like a stereotype of a certain character, and there
Speaker 5: was real vulnerability and exploration of who we all were.
Speaker 1: Nobody stayed the same as they started. You know.
Speaker 5: There was full character arcs, and I think to play
Speaker 5: to her vulnerability, I mean, she just really quit as
Speaker 5: a character, wanted to be loved for who she was,
Speaker 5: not who she represented, and there was so much masking throughout.
Speaker 2: The show all the time, all the.
Speaker 1: Time, but who she was at her core was very
Speaker 1: different than the presentation.
Speaker 2: Yes, some of those scenes with your parents on the
Speaker 2: show were some of my best heaviest scenes with parents
Speaker 2: in the entire show.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Wow, we really so many of our characters had really
Speaker 5: emotionally honest, vulnerable, hoard conversations with parents.
Speaker 1: That scene, I remember Brad was directing. Brad Foulchuk was directing.
Speaker 5: That scene where tells me to get out of the house,
Speaker 5: and I was crying so hard that he he had to,
Speaker 5: and also just for me, you know, I think understanding
Speaker 5: how to harness your emotions while performing really rough, raw material,
Speaker 5: there's no to that, and it definitely didn't have that
Speaker 5: in the beginning. So that was the first moment everyone
Speaker 5: sat where I realized, oh, I've I've let it touch
Speaker 5: something so real and honestly, I'm sobbing and snop crying
Speaker 5: and it's unusable and red well, and he said, I'm
Speaker 5: really so proud of you for for giving so much
Speaker 5: this moment we are going to be.
Speaker 1: Pup back like twenty five. Like I can't even understand
Speaker 1: what you're saying.
Speaker 5: I was like, I know, you know, hold on, let
Speaker 5: me start again.
Speaker 1: Just so sad, but that's the truth of it. We
Speaker 1: were so young. We were so young and so young.
Speaker 5: What scenes would you both say were the most difficult
Speaker 5: in that kind of emotional way to film?
Speaker 1: Do you have an answer?
Speaker 8: Do you know? Well?
Speaker 2: So two things I just want to remark on. I
Speaker 2: remember the first time you had to sing, I mean
Speaker 2: you had to cry during keep Holding On. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 2: like musical number and a few full musical number takes
Speaker 2: so long to film, And that was the first time
Speaker 2: I had ever been in a scene with somebody who
Speaker 2: had to cry. Yeah, And I remember being like, oh
Speaker 2: my god, like we're doing very different things on the
Speaker 2: show because like I'm just being a clown and like,
Speaker 2: oh she has to do something like really serious right now,
Speaker 2: and so I had to like learn by your example
Speaker 2: of like how to be during that time off, like
Speaker 2: how to respect your fellow actor when they're trying to
Speaker 2: you know, because we're making jokes, we're laughing in between takes.
Speaker 2: Like no, Dan, it has to like cry for the
Speaker 2: next six hours, so we need to get it together.
Speaker 2: But I think just.
Speaker 1: To speak to that really quickly.
Speaker 5: I remember, though, it was very helpful having you guys
Speaker 5: act normally around me because I felt more isolated because
Speaker 5: I had to. I just would sit there in the
Speaker 5: middle of it, in between takes, and the jovial nature
Speaker 5: to which people were, you know.
Speaker 1: Just responding as you normally would in between takes.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it made me feel increasingly more and more lively,
Speaker 5: which is what that character was feeling in that moment.
Speaker 2: So you're welcome for us being told very.
Speaker 1: Much it was good. I was like, I was so
Speaker 1: isolated from the school.
Speaker 4: That was like when Matt Morrison we were doing Don't Stop,
Speaker 4: and you know, we had zero experience for any of this,
Speaker 4: and Matt's trying to cry and that most like knic
Speaker 4: close up of his face that's supposed to be the
Speaker 4: culmination of this whole episode and we're literally like humping
Speaker 4: each other, like acting like a fool.
Speaker 1: And Ryan's like, you guys, we heard like the.
Speaker 3: Voice of God come down and slap us to the ground.
Speaker 1: It was very embarrassing.
Speaker 4: No, I feel like you had it on. You had
Speaker 4: it so early before any of us. Queen had such deep,
Speaker 4: uh you know, emotional storylines that you know, created that
Speaker 4: were so necessary for those moments that like by the
Speaker 4: time Tina got her groove of like her storylines, it
Speaker 4: was so much later.
Speaker 3: So I kind of learned by that point. Like I
Speaker 3: remember the school.
Speaker 4: Shooting episode, which you know, questionable, uh controversial episode that
Speaker 4: we did, and Tina stuck outside of the room, so
Speaker 4: I didn't luckily have to be in the room while
Speaker 4: you guys shot that very emotional like day of shooting.
Speaker 3: But Gina's like, all my friends are in there and
Speaker 3: that's my family. And we started shooting.
Speaker 4: Beeker was directing, and I'm talking to Blaine as we're
Speaker 4: walking down the hallway. It was the end of the
Speaker 4: day and I was filming and then he was doing
Speaker 4: the wide and he saw how emotional I was getting
Speaker 4: and how I was like, it is here and I
Speaker 4: don't know how long, it's gonna last and we are
Speaker 4: in it, and he was like, just stop, we're moving
Speaker 4: the cameras in right now. So we had to move
Speaker 4: the cameras in and swap shots just because he was like,
Speaker 4: this is this is what we are, you know. So
Speaker 4: we had learned by that point that, like, you know,
Speaker 4: you learned how to do that. But I think in
Speaker 4: the terms of in terms of Quinn, like you had
Speaker 4: such such a journey and it started off with a bang,
Speaker 4: like it did.
Speaker 1: A pregnancy bang, a teen pregnancy bang.
Speaker 2: My god, it was the greatest hits. It was like
Speaker 2: teen peggiancy bang. Then she comes back with like the
Speaker 2: pink short hair and she's in a car accident, and then.
Speaker 3: There were redemption Justice Quinn.
Speaker 2: Like, we just finished watching this and it's like at
Speaker 2: some point during every season we're like, what's happened to Quinn? This? Like,
Speaker 2: I don't think I necessarily realized how much that whole
Speaker 2: storyline with a Dina I'm.
Speaker 1: Going to get the baby back.
Speaker 2: Yes, I was like, it is never ending. You never
Speaker 2: have a break, and when you.
Speaker 5: Start with teen pregnancy, you know you're in it. So
Speaker 5: just put it all in the cart, put it all
Speaker 5: in the cart or at all.
Speaker 4: What One of the most iconic Quinn scenes that I
Speaker 4: loved so much was in the first season when you
Speaker 4: give birth to the baby.
Speaker 5: I that birthing scene, going from stage to delivery room,
Speaker 5: singing that Queen song.
Speaker 1: I mean it was Queen Yeah, Rhapsody.
Speaker 5: God, and just all of us running down the hallway,
Speaker 5: pushing me through.
Speaker 7: Bumps with our bump bes and those kind of metallic cultuneck.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Those.
Speaker 5: I really did love when music and song could take
Speaker 5: us through really heightened moments as demonstrated, and that that
Speaker 5: was one of my favorites performance because it just the
Speaker 5: emotion PI and it matched the song really well, and
Speaker 5: it just so people and fun and wild and wacky,
Speaker 5: but still within the realm of believability.
Speaker 2: You know, Yes, definitely, It's one of my favorite things.
Speaker 2: Like when that I feel like that more than post
Speaker 2: musical numbers, like has a moment online like once a
Speaker 2: year when people are seeing it for the first time,
Speaker 2: they're like, wait, what happened and you're matching the lyrics
Speaker 2: and I'm like, yeah, it's insane, and I feel like
Speaker 2: it works so well, it's so effective, And I remember
Speaker 2: watching it for the first time, because we obviously were
Speaker 2: not in the birthing scene and so like we don't know. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And I remember sitting there like in the theater at Paramount,
Speaker 2: just like my hands on my face like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: like you're screaming for your life. It is so good.
Speaker 2: How I have a question, how the hell did did
Speaker 2: how did it work? Like practically speaking them like Okay,
Speaker 2: now you're gonna scream this lyric and it's in time
Speaker 2: with the actual song, like did you just keep going?
Speaker 2: And they just kept okay, now do this lyric?
Speaker 1: Yes, And Brad Falchic again was in the room.
Speaker 5: He was there with me for so many of the
Speaker 5: heightened emotional scenes, and he was just recounting memories from
Speaker 5: his own children being born, and he was throwing and things.
Speaker 1: Like now tell him that you want him to die,
Speaker 1: or like you know, I'll kill you.
Speaker 5: And so all of those kind of peppered moments in
Speaker 5: line amazing lyrics were ad lived.
Speaker 8: And and then they plopped down this brand new baby
Speaker 8: in my arms.
Speaker 1: And they were triplets.
Speaker 5: Because anybody who has filmed its children, as I have
Speaker 5: many times past our.
Speaker 1: Show, it's helpful to have more than one because one might.
Speaker 5: Be tired, and one might be sad and crying and
Speaker 5: not be giving you the right of emotion for what
Speaker 5: you're needing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when I filmed Shima Shimma.
Speaker 5: Baby, we only had one baby, and that baby was
Speaker 5: so unhappy to be on set, and we were so
Speaker 5: many ways that were just the most comical. And it
Speaker 5: wasn't a brand new baby like this was. I think
Speaker 5: the baby was two weeks old.
Speaker 8: Or three weeks old, and it all felt strangely weird,
Speaker 8: you know, at the set, like a hospital room and
Speaker 8: here's my baby, And that was one of the stranger
Speaker 8: I've had on set.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that baby away from me, both on the show
Speaker 5: and in real life.
Speaker 2: Oh right, yeah, oh my God, and Graff singing at
Speaker 2: the top of his lungs and you giving birth is
Speaker 2: one of the best things that ever happened to television.
Speaker 3: We love Diana, Oh yes, we do.
Speaker 2: An angel on Earth.
Speaker 1: She truly is. She hasn't aged a day, no.
Speaker 2: And she's so sweet. And also like, this is only
