YS: "Mm-hmm, I went to school with Kaylee Barris, and so she’s headed off to college, I was already kind of talking about college and applying myself.

And so, the one thing that he wanted to make sure was that my character was still allowed to grow. And he didn't know if it was as fully possible if we didn't discuss this side of her adventure. Especially when you have a character that has been so independent from day one. Every other line she’s like, “Well, when I’m out of here.” And so, it was more so just such an appropriate way to continue the journey. And also again, like you said, college campuses are highly politicized and so much happens in terms of personal development, but also the development of one’s opinion, and larger public self."
