BRITTANY JONES-COOPER: Can
we talk about just like,

00:00:01.790 --> 00:00:03.900 align:middle line:84%
her first scene where she's
welcoming her new staff,

00:00:03.900 --> 00:00:05.080 align:middle line:90%
wearing her red power suit?

00:00:05.080 --> 00:00:06.373 align:middle line:84%
REGINA HALL: Yeah.
New hair.

00:00:06.373 --> 00:00:07.440 align:middle line:90%
BRITTANY JONES-COOPER: New hair.

00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:09.540 align:middle line:84%
But that monologue
that you get to give

00:00:09.540 --> 00:00:12.550 align:middle line:90%
is just so great and powerful.

00:00:12.550 --> 00:00:14.160 align:middle line:84%
So can you just-- like,
what was the first time

00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:15.750 align:middle line:90%
you read that on the script--

00:00:15.750 --> 00:00:17.207 align:middle line:84%
what was your
intention when you--

00:00:17.207 --> 00:00:18.840 align:middle line:84%
what did you want to bring
to life in that scene?

00:00:18.840 --> 00:00:20.140 align:middle line:84%
Because it's such
a dynamic scene.

00:00:20.140 --> 00:00:22.440 align:middle line:84%
REGINA HALL: Well, it was
really great, because you know,

00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:26.400 align:middle line:84%
it was that scene where
I felt like it was-- you

00:00:26.400 --> 00:00:28.137 align:middle line:84%
get to see that
Dawn is taking over.

00:00:28.137 --> 00:00:29.070 align:middle line:90%
BRITTANY JONES-COOPER: Yeah.

00:00:29.070 --> 00:00:31.650 align:middle line:84%
REGINA HALL: And it's a
office full of ladies, minus,

00:00:31.650 --> 00:00:33.870 align:middle line:90%
you know, Yassir and Wayne.

00:00:33.870 --> 00:00:36.540 align:middle line:90%


00:00:36.540 --> 00:00:38.820 align:middle line:90%
Horatio and Yassir.

00:00:38.820 --> 00:00:45.750 align:middle line:84%
And I wanted women to feel fired
up about where we were heading,

00:00:45.750 --> 00:00:49.080 align:middle line:84%
so that at the top of the
season, you felt like, ooh.

00:00:49.080 --> 00:00:52.500 align:middle line:84%
I mean, obviously, you know,
things are going to happen.

00:00:52.500 --> 00:00:57.400 align:middle line:84%
But yeah, it was that idea
of, how can we feel still

00:00:57.400 --> 00:00:58.840 align:middle line:90%
like a woman but powerful?

00:00:58.840 --> 00:00:59.773 align:middle line:90%
BRITTANY JONES-COOPER: Yeah.

00:00:59.773 --> 00:01:02.790 align:middle line:90%
