Stevens: I think in the back of my mind, the minute I got that position I wanted to take her job but I also had a crush on her. And there was a flirtation that I kind of wanted to make her think that I liked her but deep down, I [just] wanted her job.
I was gonna ask that, if you think Hugo has a crush on Karolina because I’ve always kind of suspected…
Dominczyk: Karolina maybe doesn’t enjoy him as much as Dag enjoys Fisher… I don’t know, there’s definitely a chemistry between the two of them. But I don’t know if on her end she would ever want to wind up in bed with him. [laughter] Don’t take it personally, Fisher.
Fisher: Well, that really hurts.
Dominczyk: I don’t even think Karolina plays on Hugo’s team.
Oh really? You think Karolina might be gay?
Dominczyk: There were moments when I saw her flirting with other women .
It’s funny you say that because of all the women on the show—Shiv, Kerry, Marica, Gerri, even Rhea, Karolina is really the only one we never see engaging in any sort of romantic behavior—perhaps with the exception of Nan but at least we know about her family.
Dominczyk: I went to Jesse once and I said, “Will we ever see her in her room or with whoever she lives with?” And he was like, “Nope, we won’t.”
One, I think, there’s so much happening already. Two, if I’m to be really honest, I don’t know if the writers would’ve known what to do if they unleashed a personal side to her.. It was explored in my mind but I also think that has to do with the fact that she is a real fucking pro. As a PR person, you leave the human aside and you are the public facing persona of who you’re representing and you always have to be professional and there’s no room for your drama. I think Karolina really takes pride in that. She doesn’t fuck around.
You will never know who she really is. That’s how I explained it to myself at least, ’cause don’t you think I wanted to end up in bed with somebody?
Stevens: Should have been Hugo. Should have been Hugo, whatever.
Dominczyk: I thought maybe it would’ve happened like… On a trip somewhere. You walk down a hotel and there’s them making out in the corner and nothing is ever said.
Maybe you can take a Karolina-Hugo spinoff in this.
Dominczyk: We might be like a Cagney and Lacey reboot. [laughs ] I feel like there’s a part of Karolina that, maybe they go out for a drink, and I’ll say, “Give me all that down and dirty but pretend I never heard it.”
Karolina strikes me as the kind of person who goes out to dinner with the group, has one or two drinks, stays sober, gets the dirt she needs and then leaves.
