We dished with the new crime fighters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>In Season 1, Virginia was working at a women\u2019s bookstore. The Season 2 premiere revealed her as an FBI agent. When did you find out her secret?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Amber Chardae Robinson<\/strong><strong>:<\/strong> The middle of the first season. We were supposed to reveal it in the Season 1 finale, but Abe was like, nah, let\u2019s hold off. I was like, rats, but okay. In the premiere, it was a big moment for Virginia because, mask off. She\u2019s also still trying to almost hide that identity from certain people. It\u2019s been such an exciting ride to have this little secret.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Laura Dern, Mindy Cohn, Julia Duffy and Kristen Wiig \u2014 &#8216;Palm Royale&#8217;<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Apple TV<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Why did Ann want to be Virginia\u2019s deputy?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Mindy Cohn<\/strong><strong>:<\/strong> Probably most reporters feel that they could be on some kind of crime unit. The research, the people skills, come on, we\u2019ve got it. For her, it was a natural go-to, and I\u2019m so delighted by it, that she doesn\u2019t just observe and report on the story, but she\u2019s part of it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Virginia tells Ann she joined the FBI because she thought if she could get on the inside, she could protect her community after the shootings of Martin Luther King and Fred Hampton. Amber, what was that like to shoot?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Robinson:<\/strong> It was one of my favorite scenes to shoot. You get to see who Virginia is. She represents so many people that look like her. Being part of an organization like the FBI at this time is very strategic. I worked very closely with Abe and Laura about, \u201cWe have to be careful about what we\u2019re saying, and we have to be careful about how we position Virginia because at this time, we were losing a lot of our revolutionaries at the hands of the FBI.\u201d I wanted to make sure that she was aware of the cost that it took for her to be here and what her objective was. It was important to represent my people in the best way.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>In that same scene they discuss how Ann isn\u2019t an insider either.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Cohn:<\/strong> They\u2019re both \u201cother,\u201d and that\u2019s also talked about by the grace of Abe Sylvia, who created this beautiful scene. I love shooting with Amber, where Ann talks about never being able to be a part of the club, even if I wanted to, because I\u2019m Jewish \u2014 and Amber is obviously on the outside. I love that these characters show \u201cother,\u201d but become very instrumental in what happens in the season and are welcomed into these society ladies\u2019 lives. They don\u2019t just need them; they start to really like them and love them. There\u2019s something we need right now in that.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>At the end of the episode, it was clear there was a new mystery on the horizon. What\u2019s next for this duo?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Cohn:<\/strong> They\u2019re in pursuit of a certain someone who we all love and admire, who is Palm Royale\u2019s devil. In doing so, they learn more about her background and how brilliant she is at evading everyone and being ahead of everyone. I see a new detective show in our future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Robinson:<\/strong> Virginia is kind of the underdog in the FBI because she\u2019s a woman and she\u2019s African American. So, for once she gets to take the wheel and teach Ann, in a sense, how to get this case done.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Will Maxine help or hurt their sleuthing?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Robinson:<\/strong> She does both at the same time. But she has a good heart, and that\u2019s why we love her.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong><em>Palm Royale<\/em><\/strong><strong>, Wednesdays, Apple TV<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read the latest entertainment news on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:TV Insider;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">TV Insider<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for\u00a0Palm Royale Season 2 Episode 2 \u201cMaxine Serves a Swerve.\u201d] Palm Royale\u2018s plots are wilder than the Pucci prints favored by the Palm Beach society women who populate this 1970-set, frothy, funny, feminist drama from executive producers Abe Sylvia and Laura Dern.
