Special: Beatrice, being a jerk, an unappreciated director

Beatrice.

I didn't really process how awesome that role was today, and now I feel like a jerk. A big, over-analyzing jerk. Both Kate and Ms. Schultz told me today that I would "steal the show" as Beatrice. It also wasn't until today that I noticed the coincidence... not until after Ms. Schultz probably thinks I'm ungrateful. Oh, jeez.

Coincidences? Nope. Finley actually repeated something that he couldn't tell me unitl after the cast list was up--"Payton may not be happy playing Beatrice, but she'll steal the show. Just like she did as Chef Hatami in Don't Drink the Water."

I wish he'd told me that earlier. I thought it was an ability thing. I thought Ms. Schultz just didn't think I had the ability. Nobody told me I was doing the best of my ability in these roles, and it wasn't until after Ms. Schultz had heard ''rumblings'' (how discreet. I appreciate her obvious effort) that he told me this... and now I feel awful. So when I told her I "did" have a problem, I was telling the truth...

I'm happy for it.

Who wouldn't want to be related to Dominic?
