I’m not the only one seeing 2023 Maxine Reynolds here, right? Like I’d presumed Max was queer, but huh. Apparently they’re non-binary. Good for them.

Birthplace: Snowmass, Colorado, USA
Currently resides: In Never Gonna Be Alone: Cooktown, Queensland, Australia. In Lost and Found: The Kimberley, Australia (the most northern of western Australia’s nine regions)
Height: Five foot one inch
Weight: 120 lbs
Gender: female
Identifies as: bisexual
Family: (as of “Never Gonna Be Alone”) Tyler Rake (husband), children: Amelia, 12 (Millie), TJ (Tyler James Rake Jr) and Tanner , 10, Declan 8, Adeline (Addie) 6, Brooklyn and Takota, 4
Occupation: Former intel specialist USMC, former black market intel specialist (under the High Table), former black market intel specialist (under Nik Khan), currently (in NGBA) a silent partner in Tyler’s mercenary business, owner of ‘Turn the Page’ bookstore, and runs a little business (called ‘Seven Holigans’ ) from home selling handmade baby clothes, blankets, hats, mitts etc etc etc. She also is vice president of the Cooktown Business Improvement Area and secretary for the Chamber of Commerce.
Interests: gardening, baking, crocheting, sewing, buying old pieces of furniture and refurbishing and modernizing them, paddle boarding, swimming, hiking, camping, bike riding. Loves cheesy 80s and 90s movies and pop music, and reality tv shows.
Personality: Esme is a ‘forever optimist’ as Tyler refers to her. A social butterfly who is well loved in their community and by the tourists who visit her store (she was featured in magazines and a ‘places to visit in Australia’ documentary) where she doesn’t just sell books, but homemade pies, cakes, muffins, cookies and other various goodies. She is warm and friendly and a little too trustworthy. She is highly intelligent and has a quick and playful wit, but can be cutting and hurtful if deserved. She describes herself as ‘slightly neurotic with a hefty serving of anxiety’. She is compassionate and understanding, but do not cross her. Do not betray her confidence or hurt her family in any way. She may be small, but she can more than hold her own and won’t think twice about enacting revenge.
Background: a graduate of Arizona State University, Esme holds a degree in psychology. Served in the USMC as an intel specialist in Iraq and Afghanistan. Married a superior from USMC who was sixteen years her senior, but the relationship crumbled due to abuse (of all kinds). She met Tyler through Nik Khan, who -in a tweaked storyline from the first Extraction- needed the two of them to team up in Dhaka to find Ovi so Tyler could then extract him. After the incident on the bridge, Esme stayed by Tyler’s first in a Mumbai hospital and then one in Sydney, Australia. In the series, they settled down in Sydney after his release and that year she gave birth to their first, a daughter they named Amelia Grace Rake.
In ‘Lost and Found’, they lived in Tyler’s shack (featured in the movie) in The Kimberley. They eventually (after a four-year separation) settle in Broome.

I love Camp Takota. Mamrie should get more screenwriting work. Dirty 30 is great too. I love how all the primary characters get their own arc. That’s just good writing. Hannah is the silliest bundle of fun. And the way Grace delivers her lines is amazing. She’s either hilarious or wholly relatable like:
“Suck me!” — hilarious
“I just want to be me but like a happy version” — relatable. (Also my favourite line in the movie)

Camp Takota (5/6)
The Vito Russo Test (3/3):
At least one queer character… ✔️
Once again Hannah Hart’s character, Allsion, is a lesbian. Although I will say that this is only alluded to twice. I hear both sides of the argument here: it’s great to have a character be queer and have that fact not matter at all; vs. I want it to be emphasized that she’s queer / my life revolves around being queer / I blog about it.
Who is not predominantly defined by their sexual orientation/gender… ✔️
Nope. Her big thing is her ambition to be a chef and go to culinary school.
And is tied into the plot in such a way that their removal would have a significant effect. ✔️
As one of the main three, the movie would pretty much fall apart without her.
My Two Cents (2/3):
What made me cringe:
Well, it was someone’s first time writing a movie, and some people’s first time acting. It’s not top notch quality in any respect. But it sure is fun.
What made me happy:
I love the cast. You may learn this about me. I mean I crowdfunded it. I have the tee shirt. I was all in from the start.
Women being friends, women supporting women, women encouraging each other. Yes, please! And yet, all of this positivity does not mean that the relationships are fake. There is conflict. There are differences and disagreements. Wow, it’s like they’re real people with a lot to sort out!
