I was a massive fan of Homicide and one of my favorite episodes of all time is the one directed by Kathryn Bigelow with your character leading a hostage situation. That was probably the most intense hour of television I've seen until Breaking Bad came along.

When you're shooting tense situations like that or Gus' numerous confrontations with Walt, is it more important for you as an actor to invent that atmosphere as much as possible on set, or is it more important for you to be able to step out and keep things lighthearted between takes?

Yeah, her position is incredibly naive and I'm dumbfounded that it's being taken seriously enough to even warrant a discussion. The "it's not as bad as in less developed countries so it's trivializing" argument has been made countless times before by anyone in the west refusing to address a particular national or local issue. It's been flippantly used as a counterpoint to police brutality, poverty, homophobia, water shortage, and pretty much every quality of life issue you can think of. It's intellectually lazy as hell.
