I’m pretty sure firearm “accuracy" isn’t a prerequisite for teaching.
Hugh Dancy as Will Graham, Hettienne Park as Beverly Katz, Hannibal - Amuse-bouche (S01E02)
In the fan meet at Behold the Red Dragon Con, I asked Hettienne what her favorite Will/Beverly scene was, and she said it was this one at the shooting range.
Hettienne:
Q - Are you Team Hannibal, Will or Hannigram?
A - Team Hannigram, all the way!
The potatoes saga…
Hugh invited everyone over and he cooked. Then Mads came over and Hettienne tried to help but they sent her away to sit down and relax.
They were boiled potatoes and Hugh called them spuds.
She said they could have cooked a shoe and she would have eaten it!
Says Team Sassy Science is exactly the same offscreen as on. Aw!
If she had the chance to come back to the show for a flashback scene, she would want it to be with Will so she could talk with him again.
Re. Season 4 she said, ‘I want to see Will and Hannibal hook up and get it on’.Katharine:
Q - Are you Team Hannibal, Will or Hannigram?
A - Team Hannibal.
Thinks there’s a good chance that Margot and Alana’s son Morgan will have murderous tendencies so he’ll need careful handling!
She ‘murdered’ her dying Beta fish by putting it in a ziplock bag (containing water) in her freezer on the advice of her pet store (??!!). She wrote an epitaph on the bag, lit a candle and sat on the floor, swigging vodka and crying, as the fish drifted off to sleep in the freezer.
She doesn’t think that Margot and Alana would have had an official first date (more like drinking whiskey in the basement) and she thinks they would have waited until the second date to hook up.Eddie:
In the snails scene, Eddie improvised the irritating fork tapping - he wanted to give Abel a way of fighting back. This is his favourite scene.
Sitting round the table with Mads was a lot of fun. He brings a lot to the acting table.
Thinks Abel was too far gone to be rehabilitated and wouldn’t have wanted it, despite his odd flashes of humanity.
Hettienne:
Thanked Bryan for letting her swab Mads’ mouth!
Would attend a 3-day Mads con.
Said that everyone on the show was in love with Mads.
Teared up when talking about working with Alan Rickman.
The original plan for Beverly was for her to be in a love triangle with Will and Alana, but the show went in a different direction and she was glad about that.
Hugh got everyone together for a meal send-off for Hettienne and he and Mads cooked potatoes!!Lara:
Thinks that Tattle Crime’s headline after the end of Season 3 would be ‘Murder Husbands try to commit ‘Romeo and Juliet’. Nobody cares.’
Hannibal is her favourite show to be recognised for.
Thinks that Freddie was never afraid of Will but found Hannibal a little scary. She isn’t scared of them as the Murder Husbands though! Her favourite thing was working with Laurence, Hugh and Mads.
The most fun she had was saying the ‘Here we are, a bunch of psychopaths, helping each other out’ line.
If there was a Season 4, she would like to see some of Freddie’s background, like an appearance by girlfriend Wendy.
Freddie thinks that Will and Hannibal’s ‘deaths’ were staged; Lara certainly hopes that they were staged because then there’s the possibility of a Season 4!
Called Mads ‘such a chilled dude.’Katharine:
Had forgotten that Margot and Alana’s son is called Morgan.
Thinks Margot would go to great lengths, should the show have continued, to protect Alana from Hannibal’s promise to kill her.
Had a lot of fun doing the weird mash-up sex scene!
Choosing between the Margot and Will / Margot and Alana sex scenes, Caroline wins over Hugh.
Says she immediately turned into a giggling schoolgirl whenever Mads talked to her!Kacey:
If she was cooked by Hannibal, she would be a little burger with coleslaw on the side.
Felt that Abigail knew that Will was a good person but didn’t have the ‘tools’ to be able to connect emotionally with him after so much trauma.
Thinks that in a choice between Will and Hannibal, Abigail would choose Hannibal because ‘he’s closer to what she knows’.
She’s read steamy fan fiction: the one she particularly remembers is set in Hannibal’s office where 'things happened on the desk and it was darling Will and darling Hannibal’!Vlad:
Wants someone to create a music montage of Abigail’s scenes to the song 'I Will Survive’!
If he was cooked by Hannibal, he would be 'jerk Garrett’.
Thinks that Garrett trying to kill Abigail was an act of mercy - he wouldn’t have wanted to leave her behind 'in the abyss’.
If he could be another, new character in the show, he would still choose to play a killer.
Thinks that Garrett killing the girls was preparation for killing Abigail, but as she showed herself to be receptive to his world, he decided to draw her into it instead as they got closer.An *excellent* round-up, thanks @fragile-teacup !
I’m going to add in a bit that particularly piqued my writer’s interest before I forget it. Hettienne said she had thought about Beverly’s family background while developing the character - her mom’s Korean and experienced some kind of domestic violence, divorced and then married a nice Jewish guy.
Thank you, dear @weconqueratdawn! I think I loved Hettienne’s talk the best - her answers were so thoughtful and full of emotional truth (if that makes sense!).
Even a drunk with a flair for the dramatic can convince himself he’s God. Or the Lizard King.
