Gabi, what did you simply do?!

SHANOLA HAMPTON: I’ve a lot data to retain that I don’t even learn the subsequent script till I’m completely accomplished with the episode I’m on. I discovered like a day earlier than I began taking pictures it, and it was such a shock. I didn’t see it coming after I was studying it.
It’s been clear that Gabi needs to pay for holding Sir captive, however why do you suppose this was the second she selected to do it?
Your complete season we see her going via the method of attempting to heal, attempting to get possession of her life again. We had the reveal of why she doesn’t use Gabrielle as her identify. We’ve actually given nuggets to this path all through your entire season as Gabi’s going via her therapeutic journey. She acts on emotion. Very hardly ever is she going to do one thing and [think] about what the implications are. That’s why she’s so good at her job and why Sir ended up within the basement. It’s a type of issues that’s triggered within her that claims now’s the time for me to take possession of myself once more in an actual method. He took it away from her when he mentioned “no, she didn’t kidnap me” and didn’t enable her to do her penance in jail.

You talked about Gabi calling herself “Gabrielle” in her confession. Out of your perspective, what’s the significance of that?
[It's] the ultimate nail within the coffin of: I get to reclaim me and I’m not outlined by my errors or by this individual, or by this cat-and-mouse sport. That is the second Gabi turns into Gabrielle once more. It’s hers once more and that’s not one thing that’s deliberate. That’s why there’s the slip. That’s aha second.
Lena (Danielle Savre) has been taken down. Do you see her as probably extra formidable than Sir?
Sir and Gabi play chess they usually’re in one another’s minds and in one another’s bloodstreams. She will be able to type of map out and see what he may do. With Lena, she doesn’t have that luxurious. She hates and resents Gabi. Sir isn’t a assassin, he’s a serial kidnapper. That’s very completely different from the lengths Lena would do, and particularly for her brother to get the love that Sir craves to get from Gabi. Lena is much more harmful than Sir.

He higher not be useless! Let me let you know one thing proper now, Mark-Paul is my journey or die, and I will probably be doing this present with him, in order that was my response. Higher not be useless, although. Sir higher rise up off that floor and put a band-aid on.
