Competition Checklist
Arrive at competition in competition dress, tights, warm up jacket, hair up in bun, and (minimal) make-up at least one hour before your first event.
What to bring:
– Your skates (both of them) don't laugh, it happens!
– Guards are a must! If you don't have any you will need to get some
– Optional but recommended – clothes to wear after competing
– Water and possibly a small non messy snack.
When you arrive:
– Go to registration, check-in, and turn in music.
– Ask if they are running ahead/behind schedule.
– Locate bathrooms/dressing rooms if you are not familiar with the rink.
– Give coaches a spare copy of your music.
– Find the area where the start order and results will be posted.
– If you choose to purchase videos or action photography find those vendors and make arrangements. They will usually request your event numbers. I recommend purchasing video versus a cell phone recordings for a variety of reasons. I encourage parents to be present in the moment and actively watching their child skate. It's a very different experience watching versus being focused on trying to record your child's program on a cell phone or video camera. The sound is tied into the main music system and the picture is going to be 100 times better.
Before leaving:
– Important!!! Before you leave go back to registration and pick up your music.

that one can see rightly;
what is essential
is invisible to the eye.
>Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The lord of beauty enters the soul
as a man walks into an orchard
in Spring.
Come into me
that way again!
Light the lamp
in the eye of Joseph. Cure Jacob's
sadness. Though you never left,
come and sit down here and ask,
"Why are you so confused?"
Like a fresh idea in an artist's mind,
you fashion things before they come into being.
You sweep the floor like the man
who keeps the doorway.
When you brush
a form clean, it becomes
what it truly is.
~from, You Sweep the Floor, by Rumi

Posthumous Remorse
Ah, when thou shalt slumber, my darkling love,
Beneath a black marble-made statuette,
And when thou'lt have nought for thy house or alcove,
But a cavernous den and a damp oubliette.
When the tomb-stone, oppressing thy timorous breast,
And thy hips drooping sweetly with listless decay,
The pulse and desires of mine heart shall arrest,
And thy feet from pursuing their adventurous way,
Then the grave, that dark friend of my limitless dreams
(For the grave ever readeth the poet aright),
Amid those long nights, which no slumber redeems"?
'Twill query "What use to thee, incomplete spright
That thou ne'er hast unfathomed the tears of the dead?"
Then the worms will gnaw deep at thy body like Dread.
~The Flowers of Evil, Les Fleurs du mal, by Charles Baudelaire
(…If rape or arson, poison or the knife
Has wove no pleasing patterns in the stuff
Of this drab canvas we accept as life–
It is because we are not bold enough.
~Beaudelaire, To the Reader)
Image: Dark fleur by The Wit Continuum
A child looking at ruins grows younger
but cold
and wants to wake to a new name
I have been younger in October
than in all the months of spring
walnut and may leaves the color
of shoulders at the end of summer
a month that has been to the mountain
and become light there
the long grass lies pointing uphill
even in death for a reason
that none of us knows
and the wren laughs in the early shade now
come again shining glance in your good time
naked air late morning
my love is for lightness
of touch foot feather
the day is yet one more yellow leaf
and without turning I kiss the light
by and old well on the last of the month
gathering wild rose hips
in the sun.
– W. S. Merwin, The Love of October

Jim Cramer said on Friday that WeWork should pull its embattled initial public offering because the negative sentiment around slashing its valuation could be contagious in the overall stock market.
"Stop the WeWork deal," Cramer said on "Squawk Box." "We don't want that deal. I just wish they would go away."
"I don't want WeWork at any price," Cramer said. "There are certain deals that can come and they can just really take the air out of any market."
WeWork's plans to move forward despite the reported advice from its major investor SoftBank, which will likely face a multibillion dollar write down if the company debuts at a valuation between $15 billion and $20 billion. SoftBank invested $2 billion in WeWork in January at a valuation of $47 billion. On Friday, David Faber was hearing the valuation could be $15 billion or lower.
"Why can't they just say, 'Hey, we're awful and we're going to wait until we're good again,'" Cramer said. "We don't want to give them money. They're just going to screw up the market," the "Mad Money" host added.
On Friday, in an amended IPO filing, the We Company, owner of WeWork, announced plans to list on the Nasdaq.
Addressing sharp criticism over its corporate governance, WeWork also reduced founder and CEO Adam Neumann's voting power. The filing also said that "no members of Adam's family will sit on our board."
Earlier this month, WeWork announced that Neumann would return a controversial $5.9 million trademark payment. The company also appointed its first female director to the board.

This Week's Message:
Knowing God's Will
Matt. 7:21 "Not everyone who says to me, `Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
1 John 2:17 The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.
""I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." Spoken by Jesus in John 15:5
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16
Here is how God has shown his love for us. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
"This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters" 1 John 3:16
We also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit. Romans 5:3-5
If anyone belongs to Christ they are a new creation. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! 2 Corinthians 5:17
You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. Mark 16:6 (spoken by an angel to the women in the empty tomb of Jesus on the first Easter morning)
… know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed. Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved." Acts 4:10,12
(Jesus said) I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. John 10:28
But here is how God has shown his love for us. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16
For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son gives life to whom he is pleased to give it. John 5:21
The beginning of the good news about Jesus the Messiah, the Son of God, Mark1:1
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14
Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord Acts 3:19

These Apple Puff Pastry Tartlets are made with Brie, dried currants, and a drizzle of honey for a quick and easy dessert!
About a year ago, I tried to make apple puff pastry tartlets (or little apple tarts) for a dinner party.
Things did not go well.
I made a thoughtless mistake, and grabbed wax paper instead of parchment paper to line my baking sheet. And if you've ever done that, you'll know that my tartlets melted to the (non-oven-safe) wax paper.
They were unsalvageable.
I panicked for a moment, and then tossed the entire batch of desserts. We ate chocolate lava cakes that night.
But… time has passed, and with parchment paper (which is definitely oven-safe) firmly in hand, I tried again.
These apple puff pastry tartlets are made with apples, Brie, and dried currants. They're simple to make, delicious, and are perfect for parties.
Not sure what the difference is between wax paper and parchment paper? Check out this article from Martha Stewart.
What is Brie?
Brie is a mild cheese that melts easily and poofs up with the puff pastry. It's easy to find– I buy it regularly at both Aldi and Walmart. (At Walmart it's normally with the gourmet cheeses near the deli.)
You'll be looking for a round wheel of cheese, and it's usually packaged in cardboard.
When you open it, you'll see that it's covered in a white rind. The rind is edible– you don't need to remove it for this recipe.
What are Dried Currants?
Dried currants, or Zante raisins, are a type of small raisin. They aren't actually currants. Look for them with the raisins in your regular grocery store.
Can I Use Raisins Instead of Dried Currants?
You sure can! But I would roughly dice them first– the dried currants are a lot smaller than regular raisins.
What Kind of Apple Should I Use for Apple Puff Pastry Tartlets?
I used Pink Lady apples, but these would also work well with Gala or Honeycrisp.
I think these apple puff pastry tartlets are best with crisp apples, so I'd avoid any apple that has a somewhat mealy texture (like Red Delicious). Since there isn't much sugar in these tarts, I'd probably avoid extra tart apples (like Granny Smith).

Apple Puff Pastry Tartlets
1-2 Days
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 1-2 apples, cored + very thinly sliced amount depends on size of apples and how thinly they're sliced
- 4 oz Brie (about half of one standard size wheel), thinly sliced
- 3 TB dried currants (Zante raisins)
- 1 TB cold butter, diced into small pieces
- 1 egg, beaten (optional)
- 2 TB honey or agave syrup
- powdered sugar (optional)
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Lay puff pastry on parchment paper or a silicone baking sheet. Cut into 9 equal-sized pieces.Tip: This recipe was written for refrigerated puff pastry. If using frozen puff pastry, thaw before using, rolled out to 1/4" thickness.
- Move the parchment paper and pastry dough onto a baking sheet, leaving a space between each piece of pastry. You may need to use two baking sheets.
- Use a butter knife to draw a shallow border (about 1/2" wide) along the edge of each piece of dough. Make sure not to cut all the way through the pastry!
- Add a single layer of Brie on each pastry, leaving the border empty.
- Sprinkle the currants over the Brie, dividing them evenly over each pastry.
- Add about 4 slices of apple to each pastry, fanning them decoratively across the cheese and dried currants.
- Dot the tops of the pastries with the diced butter.
- Use a pastry brush to brush the beaten egg along the pastry borders. Tip: Take care not to let egg drip onto the sides of the tartlets, because it will seal the puff pastry and prevent it from rising.
- Bake about 15 minutes, or until the pastry is golden.
- Drizzle the honey over the center of the tarts.
- Move the tarts to a wire cooling rack, and cool for about 5 minutes. Serve warm. Dust with powdered sugar if desired (optional).
- Leftovers: This tart is best eaten right away, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge 1-2 days. To help the pastry crisp up again, pop it back in the oven for 3-5 minutes.

Are Stan Lee Funko POP! Collectibles Still Available?
Stan Lee Funko POP! Collectibles. Maybe you saw the writing on the wall that one of the most creative, inventive, inspiring individuals on the planet, Stan Lee, was nearing the end of the line? Or maybe we ALL saw it, but refused to believe that such an iconic and amazing person like Lee, could ever truly leave us?! But just for shits & giggles, if you didn't have the foresight to start picking up Stan Lee Funko POP! Collectibles sometime ago and now would like to get one, what would you have to pay, now that Mr. Lee has sadly left us?
Stan Lee – the creator of Spider-Man, the X-Men, the Mighty Thor, Iron Man, the Fantastic Four, the Incredible Hulk, Daredevil and Ant-Man, and many other countless, comic book characters, died early Monday morning, Nov. 13th 2018. And while his death is deeply saddening, it is an especially horrible moment for those of us, whose lives have been touched and influenced by the imagination of this man, since we were little.
From a personal perspective, I have been incessantly kicking myself for not having picked up something earlier, to help remember and idolize this man for the rest of my days. He meant that much to me and the path I chose to walk since before I could remember.
Now with Mr. Lee gone, anything STAN LEE has been inflated beyond silliness!
So, just out of curiosity, I decided to venture online and review how Stan Lee Funko POP! Collectibles are doing?
Stan Lee Funko POP! Collectibles
|Funko Pop! Vinyl Marvel Platinum Stan Lee #03 (2015 Comikaze Exclusive)
|Funko Pop! Superhero Stan Lee 2015 Comikaze Exclusive
|Funko Stan Lee (Walmart Exclusive) POP! Marvel x Guardians of The Galaxy Vinyl Figure
|Funko POP! Stan Lee Cameo Police
|Funko Stan Lee (Walmart Exclusive) POP! Marvel x Captain America
|SDCC 2014 Exclusive Stan Lee Pop! Vinyl Figure by Funko
The list is small, but rest assured, auction sites like eBay are showing 'some' Stan Lee Funko Pop! Collectibles for sale. You just might have to pay a little more than you bargained for, but at last check, there were some be auctioned.

"OFAC to Delist Deripaska Companies"
General Folder
December 21, 2018 – On December 19, 2018, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") announced that it will remove several companies linked to Russia oligarch Oleg Deripaska from its sanctions list. Deripaska himself, however, will remain a sanctioned Specially Designated National ("SDN"). The delistings will occur within 30 days, or by January 18, 2019, unless Congress acts to block the action under the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act ("CAATSA").
The companies that will be delisted include EN+ Group plc, a Russian mining, metals and energy group; United Company RUSAL, the world's second largest aluminum company; and SC EuroSibEnergo, the largest independent Russia power producer. OFAC designated all three companies as SDNs on April 6, 2018 for being owned or controlled by Deripaska, who is a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin and who was himself designated on the same day. Deripaska has reportedly agreed to cede control of the companies, reduce his ownership interests to less than 50%, and move his shares to a blind trust. The companies also agreed to undertake corporate governance reforms and commit to "ongoing auditing, certification, and reporting requirements" to OFAC. EN+ and Rusal will also overhaul their boards of directors.
Although the companies have been sanctioned for the past eight months, OFAC had issued a series of general licenses authorizing the "maintenance" of existing business since April 23, 2018. (The general licenses also require parties conducting transactions under them to file a report of those transactions within 10 days after the license expires, but it is unclear if that requirement will remain after the designations are removed.) Once the sanctions are formally lifted in January, persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction will be able to enter into new business and long-term contracts with the companies.
The corporate restructuring is a notable win for OFAC, and demonstrates the financial pressure U.S. sanctions can exert. In August, Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Sigal Mandelker noted that the sanctions had caused Deripaska's estimated net worth to drop by roughly half, and caused the share price of EN+ to fall from $12.20 to $5.40 on the London Stock Exchange. OFAC signaled its intention to continue to apply pressure to Deripaska by announcing on the same day as the company delisting that it was sanctioning Victor Alekseyevich Boyarkin, a "former GRU officer who reports directly to Deripaska and has led business negotiations on Deripaska's behalf."
Although it is not unusual for OFAC to "delist" a person based on changed circumstances, the extent of information being provided publicly to explain the delisting is somewhat unusual. This could be due to three factors. First, under CAATSA, OFAC is required to notify Congress 30 days in advance of reducing sanctions against Russia. Second, this particular sanctions action has been the subject of much publicity in the media because of the economic importance of Rusal in the world economy. Last, because there is so much skepticism of President Trump's attitude towards Russia, OFAC may have felt the need to try to demonstrate that its decision is justified, and that the government is not being "soft" on Deripaska.

What Our Patient Say About Us
I was recently in a car accident and wasn't sure where to go at first. I found them through searching the web and I'm so glad I did. Every person I interacted with was so nice and welcoming. The receptionist was always friendly and made scheduling appointments around my work schedule very easy. Dr. Kennedy was just simply amazing. She always listened and helped me in whatever way was needed. She always made sure I was comfortable with what was going on and was great with communication. So glad to say I'm feeling so much better now thanks so her and the awesome team. If you are looking for somewhere to go for chiropractic treatment I highly recommend them.
Oh my God!! The staff at Cascade Spine and injury are absolutely amazing!!!! They are very knowledgeable, very gentle and only want you to get better. After hurting my lower back at work, I went to them hoping for any kind of relief. After a few sessions my back was feeling great again! The whole staff encouraged me to continue doing the stretches and exercises they recommended, to keep my back flexible and I find myself not just needing to do them but wanting to do them. I would recommend Cascad Spine and Injury to everyone who has back pain and needs relief. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
To say Dr. McClaren goes above and beyond is an understatement. Some guy rear-ended me because he was on his cell phone while driving and totaled my truck trailer. I had the first real headache I've had in a long time. I also had bad neck and shoulder injuries that intensified the accumulated injuries I had from doing landscaping work for almost 30 years. After the accident, I would have so much pain while working that I'd have to stop every 15 or 20 minutes. In addition to the three or two times a week that he did treatment, he did a walk-through of my job with me. He held my equipment and figured out how I should be holding them to keep from injuring myself, and he said I was trying to rush through. I have slowed down a lot and keep reminding myself to hold the equipment correctly. I can tell from the way he is with me and what he does that he really cares and his heart is really in his work to help heal people.

Police and the banking community are concerned about an armed robbery at the ASB Bank in Grey Lynn, which follows what a senior bank manager has described as "probably the highest number in history" of such robberies across New Zealand last year.
Owen Loeffellechner, BNZ national manager security and fraud, said 84 armed robberies had taken place last calendar year.
"For the last nearly three years we have seen a trajectory upwards."
He said note-passing was still the most common form of threat, but the "soft" method did not detract from trauma on staff.
Police say they are concerned about the latest heist, which took place last week at the ASB Bank on Great North Rd in the central Auckland suburb of Grey Lynn.
Two men, who ordered bank customers to the floor with a pistol before jumping the counter and forcing staff to empty the tills, are still on the run.
"They are considered dangerous," Avondale Detective Sergeant Joe Aumua said.
Mr Loeffellechner said security staff from the various banks had been in a strategy meeting when the recent ASB hold-up occurred.
They were constantly looking at ways to improve measures.
Mr Loeffellechner said inroads were being made in the fight against bank robberies.
Last September, BNZ branches began installing new SelectaDNA spray machines, which douse fleeing robbers with a solution that glows blue under ultraviolet light.
Since machines have been installed at various locations, no robberies have occurred at those banks.
Mr Loeffellechner said the machines were now fitted in about 100 of the bank's 180 branches and would soon be standard.
"But I don't see SelectaDNA or any security control measure as a panacea to bank robberies.
"All we can really do is take a holistic approach and hope these things will mitigate and lower the chances of it and deter as many as we possibly can."
Counties-Manukau field crime manager Detective Inspector Mark Gutry said his staff would have been briefed on the Grey Lynn hold-up.
"All robberies are on our radar. We take these things seriously.
"If it [a robbery in another district] occurs we will look at whether we have had anything similar to see if we can connect it," he said.
Mr Gutry urged people caught up in bank robberies to comply with the robbers' demands "because at the end of the day money's just money, and your life's your life. You don't know the state of the person, therefore you should act as if they do have a weapon."
Mr Gutry said armed robberies of security vans en route to banks or ATMs were far too common.
His staff were looking for six people after a van was robbed outside a busy supermarket last week.
Two men armed with rifles and another unarmed accomplice demanded money from security officers at the New World supermarket on Roscommon Rd in Manukau City.
Detective Shane Page of North Shore CIB said police were still looking for two men who robbed a van on its way to a Kiwibank on December 17.
It is understood the pair got away with hundreds of thousands of dollars.
One is described as possibly European, of medium build, about 1.83m tall and wearing dark glasses and a blue and white hooded jacket.
The other is Maori or Polynesian, stocky, about 1.78m tall and wearing a light blue hooded top.
Police and the banking community are concerned about an armed robbery at the ASB Bank in Grey Lynn, which follows what a senior bank manager has described as "probably the highest number in history" of such robberies across New Zealand last year.

A hybrid cloud network uses IT resources that are situated both on premises and in the public cloud. This article briefly examines the technologies, challenges and advantages of hybrid cloud.
Terraform is an open source tool built by Hashicorp to automate the provisioning of infrastructure resources. It is used to build, manage, update and delete the infrastructure resources like physical machines, virtual machines, containers, networking and others using infrastructure as a code philosophy.
In this post we will discuss about AWS VPC peering and how it can be used to connect resources between same Availability Zones in the same region or resources from different regions.
In this post, we will cover transitive routing in the cloud with a focus on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Transitive routing can be achieved using third party software or appliances (AWS recommends using the vendor that the operator feels most comfortable with).
Since everything still talks through a network, this is commonly done using a virtual network space in the cloud. for Azure, that's called Azure Virtual Network or VNet. It allows many types of Azure resources to reside inside a VNet, such as Azure virtual machines (VMs).
Different types of Azure resources, for instance, virtual machines, cloud services, virtual machine scaling sets, and Azure App Service environments can communicate privately over an Azure virtual network. This is logical isolation of the Azure cloud dedicated to your subscription. Each Azure subscription and region allows you to implement numerous virtual networks(quota limits apply).
Microsoft Azure gives you the possibility to work in a hybrid work environment with which you can integrate the servers and physical equipment of your company with the cloud. To carry out this task, our proposal is based on the use of a virtual private network (azure Virtual Private Network or VPN) that works as a gateway.

As I went to a nearby branch of the municipal library to return the books which I had borrowed before the flood damage, I found a bill on the entrance door which said that the branch would be closed for some time for the restoration of the other branches and the main library. On the parking lot, the water delivery by the army was being done. Several inhabitants were gathering around the supply truck. The water supply system was influenced by the influx of contaminated water into the water purifying plant and it seems we have to wait for its recovery for a week or so.

"For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be
upon His shoulder,
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor
Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince
of Peace." Isaiah 9:6
There are five names for Jesus in the above verses. As followers of Christ, each one is a special gift we can carry with us throughout our lives. Each is unique, and can be opened whenever we fail to trust and let fear creep in. They are far more precious than any gift the wisemen had to offer.
First, His name is Wonderful. He brings Joy and amazement. Each new day is a new beginning filled with wonder and surprise. He carries everything upon His shoulders and inspires us to worship and praise His holy name.
Second, His name is Counselor. He guides us through all the important decisions in life. This God, touches each of us personally and gives us direction and purpose for our lives.
Third, He is the Mighty God. He gives us strength to live the life He's called us to.
Fourth, He is the Everlasting Father. He has our destiny in His hands. He is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. We are His beloved forever.
Fifth, His name is the Prince of Peace. Through you Living Christ, pride, violence, selfishness, injustice, intolerance, will be replaced with renewed hope for our lives and the world.
"Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end." Isaiah 6:7
Everlasting Father, With the gift of this Holy Child, may we be open to new beginnings. In the gift this day, may our eyes be open to new ways of seeing. Guide us, Living Christ, that we might find you in one another. Guide us, Loving Christ, that we may give ourselves for the earth and its people. Guide us, Spirit of New Birth, that in the matter of our lives, we may be bearers of hope. Adapted from Casa del Sol chant. Amen

From showrunners Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage, Marvel's Runaways, available to stream on Hulu on November 21st , tells the story of six teenagers – Alex Wilder (Rhenzy Feliz), Chase Stein (Gregg Sulkin), Karolina Dean (Virginia Gardner), Nico Minoru (Lyrica Okano), Gert Yorkes (Ariela Barer) and Molly Hernandez (Allegra Acosta) – who realize that their parents have been lying to them all their lives and that they're really evil. As a result, this group of estranged friends, who also have secrets of their own, must band together to stop their parents before it's too late.
On September 26th, Collider (along with a few other outlets) was invited over to the L.A. set of the series to chat with the cast and executive producers and learn about all things Runaways. During a small roundtable interview, co-stars Rhenzy Feliz and Gregg Sulkin talked about the huge Marvel fandom, making the best TV series that they possibly can, how much fun they've had with the parent-child dynamics with their characters, how often they're thrown by the twists in the story, learning how to act like they have superpowers, and the importance of maintaining the show's magic. Be aware that there are some spoilers discussed.
Question: Are you guys ready for all the crazy fandom stuff that comes with being a part of a Marvel project?
GREGG SULKIN: Thankfully, I come from a very normal family, so I take everything with a pinch of salt. The fandom is really humbling to me, and it's really sweet and flattering, but at the same time, the most important thing is the show and the quality of the show. Hopefully, fans love it, and if they love it, I'm more than happy to bring them along for the ride. I'll be grateful for that opportunity. I don't know if any human being is ever ready for fandom, but you try to deal with it the best way possible. You just enjoy it and be grateful, and you see where it takes you.
RHENZY FELIZ: Speak for yourself. I'm definitely ready for it. No. It's a lot to take on. It's a lot of pressure. It's a big spotlight. Marvel comes with this huge fandom. People are gonna show up and they're gonna watch, and they're gonna judge and tweet about it. I like the fact that people are excited for it. That's something that we have to deal with and that we have to live up to. It makes us be on our toes and give everything we have because we know that, if things don't happen the way that they're supposed to come out, than we're gonna get criticized.
SULKIN: It's like trying to score a touchdown in the last play of the game. That's how it feels. It's our job, as actors and collaborators and castmates, to make sure that every single person is giving 150% and to make sure that there are no mistakes. We want to come out not just satisfying the audience, but blowing people out of the water with it. That is our goal, and it has been since we started the show. We weren't doing the show just to do a TV show. We want to make the biggest show on television for the next two, three, four or five years. That's our plan. We'll see if it happens.
One of the great qualities of the show is the parent/child conflict, which is very universal. What's been fun about building that with your TV parents?
FELIZ: It's very fun because it's a world that we get to travel to while we act. That's what I love about acting so much. When we start off with Alex, he's with his parents. When he sees that sacrifice, there's a lot of denial. What happens when you find out that your parents aren't who you think they are? Not all of that can be true, can it? For you to swallow the truth, you need to know the truth, so you go out and try to find out what exactly is happening. What exactly are they? What have they been doing his entire life? How long has this been going on? You try to find those answers. Then, you can start to process things, but it takes awhile. That's what this season is there for. You figure it out slowly, what is and what isn't true.
SULKIN: We work with such talented people. The actors who play our parents are top notch. I know that I look forward to coming to set with James [Marsters] and Ever [Carradine] and doing scenes with them because it makes me a better actor and I step up my performance. It's amazing, going into this very deep, dark world with them. And then, as soon as they say, "Cut!," they are the coolest, sweetest people. That whole experience has been amazing.
SULKIN: Although it's The Runaways and may be focused on how we're stopping evil, at the same time (co-showrunners) Josh [Schwartz] and Steph [Savage] do a great job of allowing the audience to understand why the parents are doing what they're doing.
FELIZ: You get to see both perspectives. It's cool.
Rhenzy, your character clearly wants to get the band back together again, but they're a little resistant. Is he just happy that they have to rely on each other again, or would he prefer that it be under different circumstances?
FELIZ: I'm sure he'd prefer it be under different circumstances, for sure. I think that when the sacrifice happens and they all do have to come together, I don't think it's anything that he wants. I don't think it's anything that any of them want. You don't want to believe that your parents are [villains]. So, they do come together. They can only trust themselves, at that point. The only other people that understand what they're going through are also going through it, at the exact same time. They're all trying to figure it out together, and I think he's grateful for that. I don't think he'd want to do it with anyone else. I think he loves his friends, but at the same time, they butt heads. It's a very difficult situation that they're in.
When you read the scripts, are you ever thrown be a twist that comes up in the storyline?
FELIZ: Every episode!
SULKIN: Every five minutes of every episode!
FELIZ: Exactly! There are so many twists and turns in this. You see something going one way, and then they'll say a line and it changes the entire series. It's very, very fun to read. I wait by my email. Every five minutes, I check to see if we got a new script. It's very exciting!
SULKIN: The audience goes on the journey with the Runaways because, along with the Runaways, they're gonna find out information, through each episode, as to how evil their parents are, what exactly they're doing, how they're doing it, and how they're gonna stop them. That continuously changes and develops. For the first three episodes, it is really a rollercoaster.
