Carrington Lane, played by Paulson, joins the show as a quiet lawyer working at a large, unpleasant law firm with colleagues Allura Grant (Kardashian) and Liberty Ronson (Watts). When Allura and Liberty receive permission from the firm’s only female partner, Dina Standish (Close), to start their own all-female practice, they can only bring one person with them – and they choose experienced investigator Emerald Greene (Nash-Betts). While Carr is a skilled lawyer who was often overshadowed by her more attractive coworkers, she’s also noticeably anxious and has a dramatic reaction to the news, throwing a fit in Dina’s office and damaging valuable antiques while shouting. Dina calmly points out that one of the broken items was a gift from Golda Meir, a line delivered with a mix of humor and sincerity. After that, Carr is largely unseen until the second episode, where she unexpectedly steals the show again with a memorable, aggressive letter and accompanying Edible Arrangement.
