00:00Personally, I think for Maya, I would have loved to have continued to have seen a woman
00:06in a male-dominated industry.
00:08I loved that from the get-go.
00:09I always loved the fact that Maya and Vic and Andy were these badass women in a male-dominated
00:18career, and I feel like we touched on it a lot, but never as much as I would have loved.
00:23So that's one storyline.
00:25As we went on and as we knew when we did those flash wars that Maya carried a baby, it would
00:29have been nice to see how, as a firefighter in a male-dominated industry, she also was
00:34able to be pregnant and still be a firefighter, and what that looked like.
00:40Because I think that's something that even real firefighters struggle with, female firefighters
00:45struggle with, because how do you balance work and motherhood?
00:49So that was what I would have loved to have seen.
00:52I would have loved to have seen Maya balance work and motherhood in a male-dominated industry.
