00:00I adore Oliver and it is, it's such a great, I just love their relationship.
00:06First of all, I love that they were estranged in the beginning, but it was still her safe
00:13place to land and that she went and found him and I loved how accepting he was of all
00:17that was going on with her and like, he had so many questions for himself about like,
00:22where have you been as my sister and all that.
00:24But the second that he saw how broken she was, he was able to just like be there for
00:27her and really help her start her life again.
00:31So I love their relationship for those reasons.
00:35I think it's a really fun thing for Oliver that he has a family member that comes, you
00:40know, and is like attached to him in the show in that way.
00:44So that's really fun.
00:45And we also really enjoy working together.
00:47I love that Maddie feels like a mother to him as well as a big sister.
00:54And I think that they have, you know, obviously been through a lot with their parents.
00:59But I also love that like now the parents have started to grow because Buck and Maddie
01:04have grown so close and sort of allow them that way.
01:07So it's again, just a joy to like be able to work with Oliver and do that relationship.
01:12And I just, I don't know, I love being his sister.
01:14I really do.
01:15And I feel like in real life, I'm sort of like a sister to him.
01:17So it's great.
01:19I just love it.
01:21As far as Buck's big coming out, I personally was not surprised.
01:27And I don't really think that Maddie was surprised.
01:31I just think that it was like so brave of him to just say it out loud and to explore
01:38that in himself and to be there and be that person.
01:42And so I think that I was really excited about it.
01:45My first reaction when I knew that it was happening was I just wanted to make sure that
01:49Maddie was going to react the way that I wanted her to, which was to be a mom, a big sister,
01:54a support, to say, this is big.
01:57Are we taking this all in?
01:59And like, is this really like what's in our brain and our heart?
02:03And are we, you know, how are we, how are we doing and doing like the check-in, but
02:08also saying like, tell me about the hot guy.
02:10And like, OK, the new Nora, I'm psyched.
02:14And Tim was like, she's going to react exactly the way that you want her to.
02:17And so I was really happy when I knew that.
02:20And I think it's fun and I look forward to exploring more of it, you know, in the new
02:24season. And I hope that we do.
02:27I think that Buck has always been somebody who's never really settled into who he is
02:33as a person. And I think it's exciting to see him maybe getting some answers in that.
02:38And I feel excited for him as a friend and as a.
