This is Tommy’s Casablanca episode, and she is Humphrey Bogart…there are definitely some twists and turns to come [in her] beautiful story.
Gina Torres is a Ferrari. Her talent is immense, and this season we just went all in on letting her go. She really takes the ball in Episodes 3 and 4, and then we have an even bigger storyline for her that starts to kick off in Episode 6. That will be her character-defining arc for this season — and perhaps the series. Many big things are coming for her character this season.
