Ginny and Georgia's Brianne Howey Breaks Down Biggest Season 2 Shockers: [Spoiler]'s Murder, Epic Wedding Dress and More · Ginny's Relationship With Zion.

The thought of entertaining anything with Joe would almost feel selfish in a way because right now, all she can think about is her children and she needs to protect them and move forward with this plan with Paul.” She sort of fell through the cracks of society, of the system and she's paid the price for all of that,” Howey explained of Georgia’s motive. I think Georgia knows from, unfortunately, not having that relationship with either her mother or her father or any parental figure in her life how traumatizing it can be when you don't have that love and support or when your idea of them is so tarnished or when you see them for who they really are,” Howey said. “But it's also heartbreaking because Georgia is a woman with a plan, and she's stuck in this survivor mode and she just needs to take care of her family. And B) to see Ginny as this adult who's growing up and has her own thoughts and opinions that are incredibly valid and Georgia has to try really hard to stop and listen and understand,” she noted. So the second we both get there, we're kind of locked and loaded and it's a safe space to play and take risks and I know that we have each other's backs, so that always helps.” [jwplayer CA7y0jTE] As Ginny gets help, her therapist has Georgia join one session, a big moment for Howey and the character. The second installment of the Netflix series picked up where season 1 ended — with mother-daughter duo Georgia (Howey) and Ginny (Antonia Gentry) on the outs after the teenager discovered her mom had killed her stepfather Kenny before their move to Wellsbury. “I remember the day Sarah Lampert, our creator, texted me saying, ‘I think I want Georgia to have a blue dress.’ And I thought it was the most perfect genius idea. She’s trying to put this man out of his misery and she’s trying to help this woman move on and not feel guilty about it and try to keep this pristine image of Zach’s father for Zach. So the second we both get there, we’re kind of locked and loaded and it’s a safe space to play and take risks and I know that we have each other’s backs, so that always helps.” “And luckily with Toni, I just feel like we have such a safe space with each other that we’re really able to kind of jump right into the deep end with some of these incredibly difficult scenes and have these really nuanced conversations surrounding really, really difficult subjects. “It’s an eye-opening, huge, huge breakthrough moment for Georgia to begin to see A) Ginny as someone other than a mini-me version of Georgia.

And that's why Georgia is the way she is and has the outlook that she has. I knew how important it was and I wanted to honor it and I didn't wanna mess it up. Just seeing how on-brand Georgia is and knowing that this is who Georgia has always been. In Georgia's mind and with her limited toolbox, this makes a lot of sense to help them move on. So right now she has to think of the whole picture, and I don't even think she's too concerned about herself at the moment. Like for Georgia, there is so much gray area, but her kids are the only black-and-white area of her life. My mom had me at 21 and when I first read the script, there is so much of my mom in Georgia.

You have to be a little more creative and savvy when your options are limited.
