What do viewers need to know about your character, Linda?
Linda starts off as a deputy and a small town girl. I'm from here and I've had to grow up in this town -- I know everybody, so you see me as a deputy and someone who's been a little sheltered and shown the ways by Duke, the sheriff in town. And all of a sudden this dome comes down, and you're going to start to see her become this independent, strong woman who goes into the belly of the beast and faces this problem head on, from the teachings that she had from her sheriff. She's very strong-willed and a very determined and focused person. She starts off as the underdog and makes her way out, up to the top.
Her fiance is trapped on the other side of the dome -- I'm guessing that makes the whole situation even more challenging for her?
Right. I was supposed to get married and I go through troubles through the fact that we had so many things planned. One of the craziest things about this show is that you realize, this dome comes down and it's not necessarily about the dome as much as it is about what happens to everybody's lives once you get trapped. You thought you had until tomorrow to do something and it turns out you don't. So I think it affects her in the sense that she was hoping to do this and do that, [so she] put a couple more hours in [at work] so that she can go on a honeymoon ... And all of a sudden this happens. So I think that's devastating, that she never got to do the things she wanted to do. And she's missing her loved one as well. Not only that, but the craziness that's happening in the dome -- the last thing you're worrying about is your wedding dress coming in the mail. People are dying, there's a dome, there's fire, there's explosions. There's all these crazy things, but I think that's what's difficult with each one of us as characters -- you realize what means something to us and you start to learn people's real character once shit hits the fan.
