‘Hacks’: Jean Smart on How Deborah May Handle Her Explosive Finale Fight With Ava in Season 4: ‘I Don’t Think She’ll Apologize’

variety.com:

Selome Hailu SPOILER ALERT: This interview contains spoilers for “Bulletproof,” the Season 3 finale of “Hacks.” The hacks of “Hacks” are moving up in the world, but not without a cost.

After tireless work alongside Ava (Hannah Einbinder), Jimmy (Paul W. Downs) and Kayla (Megan Stalter), the penultimate episode of “Hacks” Season 3 saw Deborah finally land the late-night hosting gig she’d been dreaming of since having her first chance taken away decades ago.

In the finale, titled “Bulletproof,” her celebration gets cut short as she starts to prepare for the onslaught of pressure to come.

It hasn’t been long since Deborah reinvited her sister Kathy (J. Smith-Cameron) into her life after cutting her off years ago for having an affair with her husband, but she then distractedly whittles down a weekend they’d planned together to a single day, during which she reveals that she secretly had their parents’ remains removed from their original gravesite while she and Kathy were still fighting.
