Rebecca Romijn  "I feel like I've been drawn to these characters that have things that they've 
been hiding, things that they may be shameful about and make a decision to stop
and to start living authentically."

Anson Mount
" I think they gain a real specificity from the friendship that Rebecca and I have built on and off the screen. 
We're pretty much the same age. We have pretty much the same sense of humor, and we have the same 
sensibility about the relationship of these two characters."
