One factor Discovered is aware of easy methods to do is to ship some scrumptious twists!
It’s precisely what occurred when all of the items fell into place, and we discovered that Heather Tollins is none apart from Sir’s sister, Lena.
It’s one thing Danielle Savre skirted round after we spoke to her final.
Thankfully, TV Fanatic caught up along with her once more.
Once we weren’t erupting into giggle suits, we managed to debate all the small print about Heather or, quite, Lena’s twisted loyalty to her brother, how she may very well be a formidable foe to M&A, and, sure, we fangirled over her enjoying Zack Morris’ sister.
Is Lena a sufferer or an antagonist? We delve into that and way more.
Try our interview and an unique sneak peek of tonight’s MUST-WATCH new episode under!
First, I’ve to ask: How does it really feel now that you could say you’re associated to Zack Morris?
Oh my God, I’ve been desirous to say that, however I assumed it will sound too tacky! [Laughs]
It’s okay. I can be tacky for you!
Somebody requested, and I didn’t need to say it as a result of I assumed it was too tacky. No, I adore it as a result of that was my first response. Mark-Paul Gosselaar opened the door and stated, “Hello, sister,” and I used to be like, “Oh my God, I’m Zack Morris’ sister.”
You and MPG have such nice pure chemistry. Did it come simply? What’s been your expertise enjoying this position the place you’re extra sinister than Sir? He’s even afraid of you.
Yeah, I’m extra; what’s the phrase I’m making an attempt to consider? She’s simply extra erratic and spontaneous. You don’t know what is going to come out of Heather, however her entire aim and motivation is to guard her brother.
It’s attention-grabbing as a result of it appears like he wasn’t scared that she would harm him. His worry is that she’s going to harm Gabby.
You’re entering into my subsequent query. I used to be interested by Heather’s motivations relating to her brother.
Yeah, my aim is all the time to guard my brother. He raised me to be the way in which. Principally, I’m a model of Gabby, who was underneath Hugh’s management for my entire life.
Part of me simply needs to guard Hugh, however I’m utterly manipulated. I imagine all the pieces he says and that Gabby is the villain.
Lena is erratic, scary, and harmful. At instances, she doesn’t even absolutely know what she’s going to do. She simply is aware of she has to guard her brother in any respect prices. And if which means ruining her personal life and taking down a bunch of individuals, she’ll do what must be finished.
It’s so attention-grabbing as a result of she was completely underneath the radar, and nobody would’ve been onto her in any respect.
However Lena basically chooses one brother over the opposite. She selected Sir over Christian. However Sir, as we all know, all the time chooses Gabby. Will that catch as much as both of them and backfire a bit?
Yeah. She’s simply so manipulated.
Think about if Gabby had been underneath Hugh’s management for 18 years. What would she appear to be? That’s principally Lena. There’s a world the place there might have been a number of variations of what might’ve been, however she’s Hugh’s soldier, will do something for him, and utterly believes his lies.
Lena thinks he’s harmless. For her, it’s “How dare Gabby say that my brother stored her kidnapped. She selected to be with my brother as a result of my brother’s wonderful.
I used to be calling her unhinged Heather.
That’s the phrase I used to be considering of; I couldn’t recollect it earlier. She is totally unhinged.
She has some attention-grabbing strategies, too. I used to be conflicted right here. However did she actually have emotions for Trent, or was she utilizing him? Each possibly?
She went into it with a aim of “I have to get info. I want to assist my brother, and that is the best angle.” She went for it with a disguise of what she would accomplish after which realized, “Oh, I’ve emotions for this particular person.”
It’s more durable to see that simply because we didn’t get to see their relationship play out on digicam. It shouldn’t; the present is about lacking youngsters. However the way in which I constructed it’s she began to essentially have emotions for him, which difficult issues. Now she’s simply making an attempt to persuade Trent that her brother’s harmless and Gabby’s not so nice.
Lena isn’t making an attempt to make use of Trent as this software anymore to get her brother out. She’s truly making an attempt to persuade him that Gabby’s dangerous — “You may see that I’m proper.” Part of her is having that battle in herself. She’s beginning to query her loyalty to her brother and her dedication.
Not absolutely but, however subconsciously, she’s actually questioning what is basically occurring right here. Not “Am I fallacious?” However extra “What am I lacking?
She’s having emotions for somebody she’s most likely by no means had earlier than. She lived in a conditional family the place she needed to do what her brother needed, and now she has emotions for a person she by no means had, and it’s very complicated for her.
It’s varied shades of grey. We see completely different types of captivity in all of the characters. It’s such a big spectrum, which is basically attention-grabbing. So it’s thrilling that we might see that with Lena, too.
That’s an incredible commentary that I didn’t actually understand. Everybody was basically kidnapped and lacking at one level. And in Lena’s actuality, how related is she to the individuals of M&A than others?
Hey, in the event that they took Jamie in, they may have taken her in too!
However she’s undoubtedly extra like a formidable foe. I do know the upcoming episode is titled “Lacking Whereas Heather,” however Lena appears the sort to place up a hell of a struggle, not disappear.
She’s a feisty one, for certain! [Laughs]
We’re at that deadlock the place you surprise, might she be extra on the aspect of M&A, or will she determine to be extra on the aspect of her brother? It’s attention-grabbing. However it’s good that that’s there like she might go both approach and even you’re selecting up on that.
What are you able to tease for us with out getting in hassle about what’s developing? What are you most excited for the viewers to see?
I’m excited for the viewers to see the dynamic between brother and sister with out these constraints. Earlier than, they had been hiding all the pieces and being secretive. Now that the key’s out, it’s sort of good to see how issues are going to unravel.
I’m excited for that and for individuals to see the extremes and the extent to which Lena will go to guard her brother as a result of she is going to go there. And folks will see the dynamic shift between her and Gabby, too.
What does that imply, and the place will it depart us with them? Such as you stated, Gabby has a lot compassion for all of her victims. Will she view Lena as a sufferer? Or will she view Lena as an enemy? Solely time will inform us because it all unravels. Yeah, I’m so enthusiastic about that.
I like the thought of those two girls enjoying off one another. They’re attention-grabbing foils.
Thanks for taking the time with me immediately. You’re such a ball of optimistic power. You gave me a lot, it was nice!
It was nice. I talked so quick—that’s the issue. Typically, I make no sense. However thanks for reminding me that I performed Zack Morris’s sister.
You get to place that in your resume now!
I used to be about to say that’s occurring within the resume. I performed Zack Morris’s sister!
We edited this interview for size and readability.
Danielle Savre could also be onto one thing about Lena’s conflicted emotions about Trent and her loyalty to her brother. This definitely appears to be the case throughout a key second within the episode.
