OLIVER AND BRIANNA!!!

What a duo 🙂‍↕️

Source: Brianna’s IG story

[herefortarlos]

Just some takeaways from these interviews that feature Ronen, Gina and Brianna!

Enzo will be back in episode 5x08! "We'll probably have to see Enzo in some orange colors, a jumpsuit perhaps because he's in big trouble right now."

Ronen gushing over how cute Jonah was when he says, "Hi, big brother."

Could this be leading to TK and Carlos taking in Jonah? And Ronen's deflecting response of, "I have no idea, that would just, I don't know, I just, I just work here." And looking away from the camera.

Ronen talking about the karaoke scene and having "no idea it was going to be Freddie Mercury, you know one of the most incredible singers of all time. Really talk about under pressure because of course they gave me the Freddie parts. So I was a little nervous because it's one thing to sing karaoke in front of people but this is gonna be watched by millions of people, so I hope I did a good job, and to sing with Henry and then Rob was so iconic... because it's TK and his two dads and how important they both are to him and just crucial to who TK has become as a man...." "They picked Under Pressure for us for a reason, I think the lyrics are very telling."

Talking about the Tarlos photos! "That's gonna be a recurring gif for the rest of time for sure! They knew what they were doing with that one."

Gina does not think Tommy would have stepped away if she had not been hurt like that for her to realize she had to take care of herself.

Brianna and Gina talk about filming the hospital scene! Tommy having to come to terms with leaving a job that means the world to her. "It had so little to do with trusting who I'm going to pass the torch along to and so much more to do with the trust and belief in the woman that's in front of me. And so it was bittersweet...but I know you've (Nancy) got this!"

Ronen saying, "Tommy is Nancy and TK's mama bird. Especially after 5x05." "That scene at the end of 5x07 is so beautifully heart breaking between Gina and Brianna, I just rewatched it again and just started crying on my own, and oh my god, when she asks her to become the temporary Captain..." "But that leads to some really fun stuff for Brianna and I. It's like the kids get to go out on their own now, so you'll see a lot of paramedic calls with just us, which is really fun. But Brianna really holds it down as Captain and we'll see what that leads to Tommy if she can come back or not. There's a lot of intense stuff for Tommy."

Brianna saying, "It's gonna be just TN." "Ronen and I had a lot of fun with the TN dynamic. The kids are taking the car!"

Ronen saying, "TK and Nancy are so close, especially this season, and Brianna and I got really close this season, and I just love her so much and I think you start to see that when we go out on the calls ourselves, and they're gonna be silly little kids, but still professional and so good at what they do and I think that dynamic is going to be really fun to see." "I'm so excited for people to see Brianna really shine and get her moment especially as Paramedic Captain, that's such a huge honor."

Gina talking about the story line Rashad wrote for Tommy this season, "Sometimes it's triumphant and sometimes you don't want to be there... If you're invested in Tommy, it's gonna hurt."

Ronen talking about Carlos' father's murder. "Carlos starts making more progress in the case...and then there's gonna be a few other questions that are going to be brought up that are really going to challenge TK and Carlos."

"Some of the questions are, "Are we ready to take the next step in our relationship?"

"TK fears for his husband's life because Carlos is getting involved with some really bad people, and I think TK vividly remembers seeing his husband almost die when he was kidnapped and I think that's probably an image that plays in his head and I think that's something he never wants to see again. His actions are coming from caring and fear..."

Ronen says TK has at least one scene with Campbell.

Ronen was asked about Judd drinking at his party and if TK will notice with his addiction, and Ronen said, "That leads to an incredible scene between Judd and TK. I think it opens the door for Jim to really shine and another side of Judd we may not have known. It's also just beautiful because Jim in real life is sober and it's a beautiful way for Jim to put his own experiences into that character."

17 Black Women Who Made History That You Probably Never Heard Of, Get Familiar With Them

17 Black Women Who Made History That You Probably Never Heard Of, Get Familiar With Them Posted on February 16, 2017 by Brianna McCullough More Hidden Figures You Should Know About Each February, we take some time to remember the great minds of Black Americans who made a significant impact through their work. The success of Black Americans are especially significant because of the high barriers to entry and obstacles in their path as a result of slavery, and discrimination. While leaders like Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. are typically highlighted as major figures during Black History Month, what about the other crucial visionaries that paved the way for American success and freedom? In the spirit of uncovering ‘hidden figures,’ we put together an extended list of Black women you may have never heard of but should get to know. Here are their stories and the history they’ve made. Jewell Mazique Washington,_D.C._Jewel_Mazique,_worker_at_the_Library_of_Congress,_waiting_for_a_streetcar_on_her_way_home_from_work Mazique broke many barriers in her lifetime as a writer, activist, and librarian who helped found the Capital Trust Campaign which aimed to integrate Washington D.C.’s bus operators. As an activist, she also served on the National Council in 1945 for the Southern Negro Youth Congress. Mazique is also credited as the first person to receive an MA in African studies from Howard University. She even fought the battle for what’s right in her personal life. She took her divorce case to the Supreme Court to advocate for a higher divorce settlement arguing that she took on two jobs to support her ex-husband through medical school. She ultimately lost her case but in 1964 this was ground breaking for a woman to do and became the foundation leading to the reform of divorce laws. ​Bessie Coleman Bessie Coleman Coleman was the first Black woman to earn a pilot’s license. Pilot school in the United States denied her entry because she was a Black woman so instead she took her savings and moved to Paris where she later earned her pilot license. In 1922 Coleman took her first flight as a Black woman in America and later died in 1926 doing what she loved to do best – flying. Jayne Kennedy​ By National Broadcasting Company (ebay.com, front of photo, back of photo) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons By National Broadcasting Company (ebay.com, front of photo, back of photo) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons In 1970, Jayne Kennedy Overton became the first black woman to in the crown of Miss Ohio and ultimately went on to become one of the top 15 contestants for Miss USA. She went on to become another first, as a sports broadcaster. She was a lead anchor on CBS’s program NFL today. Throughout her career she has taken on roles including an American television personality, actress, model, corporate spokeswoman, producer, writer, public speaker, and philanthropist. Kennedy won many awards including a NAACP Image Award (1981) as well an Emmy. Willa Beatrice Brown Chappell Willa Beatrice Brown Chappell By Unknown or not provided (U.S. National Archives and Records Administration) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons Chappell was an American aviator, lobbyist, teacher, and civil rights activist. She broke many barriers including becoming the first Black woman to earn her pilot license in the U.S., becoming the first Black woman to run for U.S. congress, and she was the first Black woman to be an officer in the US Civil Air Patrol while holding both a pilot’s and mechanic’s license. Leontyne Price LeontynepriceCarl Van Vechten [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons Price was one of the first Black citizens to become a leading artist at the Metropolitan Opera. She won 19 Grammy awards, a special lifetime achievement award, as well as the Presidential Medal of Freedom award in 1964. RELATED: These Are The Female Activists You Need To Know About Norma Sklarek Norma_Sklarek_public_domain By blackpast.org [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons Sklarek was the first licensed Black female architect and the fellow of the American Institute of Architects. She made history again in 1985 when she created one of the largest female owned architectural firms in the country. Constance Baker Motley baker motley450 from Columbia Law School Constance Baker Motley was a civil rights activist, lawyer, judge, state senator, and Borough President of Manhattan, New York City. She was the first African American woman appointed to the federal judiciary by Lyndon B. Johnson. Shirley Chisholm Shirley_Chisholm_portrait By Kadir Nelson (http://history.house.gov/Collection/Detail/30296) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons Shirley Chisholm became the first Black congresswoman in 1968. Four years later, she became the first major-party Black candidate to make a bid for the U.S. presidency.

Patricia Roberts Harris Patricia_R._Harris_official_portrait Patricia Roberts Harris was the first Black female to hold a Cabinet position as the secretary of Housing and Urban Development. Harris also served as a U.S. ambassador. In 1969, she became the dean of Howard University School of Law making her the first Black woman to hold that position.
