To say that my Mothma is put through the emotional and psychological boom in the opening chapter of season 2, so it is an understatement.

“It upsets everything and finally sees my tacitly accepting something that translates into his kind of blood on his hands with what happens to Tay. So, the opportunity to take his drink and go into a complete Liberation mode by throwing yourself into this dance, which is the only way to deal with chaos in his head, was as brilliant as an actor, in particular for this character which is so rigid.
