So when I was in college, my friend Larry and I were joking around and decided to start introducing ourselves to new people by our first and middle names only. Once I started working professionally in theatre, I registered my whole name, but Jasika Nicole Pruitt is a mouthful. So what started as a joke just kind of stuck." (answering 'Did you give great consideration to the thought of being out in your industry?') "I will be totally honest with you and say that there really wasn't a decision that I made. I didn't feel like there was an alternative. I was completely unwilling to lie about who I was, or to try and hide who I was with. That was never something that I would even consider doing." "John [Noble] is the funniest guy. I thought he would be very serious, and I was intimidated when I first met him, and I'm pretty sure he made fun of me because, you know, he likes to keep the mood light. Seeing him work is fascinating; it's like taking a master class. I just like to sit back and watch how he processes information and take notes." "I used to really hate being poor. Not as if anyone actually enjoyed being poor when they were young. But I think it's a little easier in some respects to be poor when you are surrounded by other poor people, because you're all in the same boat." (about not signing on with a publisher for her comic)"They were like, 'You shouldn't talk about this,' or, 'This should be your angle,'. It's not about an angle. It's about my experience." "The hardest part about being an actor is keeping motivated, since rejection is inevitably part of the business." "I have such an adamant aversion to cheese that it's embarrassing. But since you asked, let me just take this time to redeem myself and say that my hatred of cheese is not 100%; I LOVE Doritos.2 (about writing her comic) "It's nice to be able to have something I have complete creative control over, as opposed to acting, where you're just along for the ride and waiting to see what happens. I have so much fun doing it, and I'll always be able to take out a piece of paper and a pencil and be able to draw something. Ugliness can be gentle and engaging, and relatable since we as humans have all felt it before; ugliness is just a part of existing."

Astrid Favorite Scenes Survivor Snakehead Scene 4 WALTER: Agent Farnsworth. ASTRID: Walter, what a... what a coincidence. WALTER: It's not a coincidence at all. You were following me. Peter had you follow me. ASTRID: No. I have a... I have a friend that lives right down... by the, uh... the Chinese restaurant. Walter. We're worried about you. WALTER: Does it occur to you that perhaps I want to be alone? That perhaps I want to live my life with a semblance of dignity and self-respect? If I want to go get a hot dog, so be it. I may go grocery shopping. I may even join a gym. ASTRID: Walter. I'm sorry. WALTER: Well, since you're here, you may as well accompany me to the next herbalist on my list. But as a friend, not a supervisor. ASTRID: Agreed, Walter. WALTER: I love Chinatown. Do Shapeshifters Dream Of Electric Sheep Scene 7 ASTRID: Agent Astrid Farnsworth. I'm here to see Doctor Bishop. FLOOR SECURITY: I've got an "Astro" Farnsworth. ASTRID: That's me, mm-hmm. 6955 KHz Scene 8 ASTRID: There has to be a pattern here. Every code relies on a pattern. I just need to see it. WALTER: But you can't. That's your problem. ASTRID: Thanks for the vote of confidence. WALTER: Oh, oh, no, no, no, no, no. No, I... I simply meant that to break the code you would have to think like they did, and they lived millions and millions of years ago. I... I mean, for one thing, look at their concept of time. Nine days in a month? If you're not going to eat those chips, May I? What? What? What happened? ASTRID: Here. Read me this calendar. How many days are in each month? WALTER: Why? ASTRID: Humor me. WALTER: The first two are twelve and thirty-four. Then seventeen, nine, fifteen. What are you thinking, Watson? ASTRID: That maybe what we're missing is a Cipher Matrix... our decoder ring. Okay, what are the next months? WALTER: Eight, forty-two, forty, twenty-seven... Marionette Scene 9 OLIVIA: Hey. Tell me there's more. ASTRID: There's plenty. I just made a fresh pot. OLIVIA: Great. ASTRID: Bad night? OLIVIA: I had a lot of laundry to go through. ASTRID: How is it... being back? OLIVIA: It's good. ASTRID: Yeah? OLIVIA: Strange. Peter told me what happened, you know, that he was seeing her. You know, I get it, but... you saw them together. What was he like with her? He didn't seem different? I mean... like, happier or... ASTRID: Olivia... OLIVIA: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Okay. We should go. Broyles wouldn't have called us in if he didn't have something. ASTRID: Olivia, wait. He thought that she was with you. OLIVIA: I understand. It's fine. ASTRID: It's not fine. Whatever feelings that Peter had, they were not about her. They were about you. And they were real. They still are. OLIVIA: Thank you, Astrid. Reciprocity Scene 10 BROYLES: I see Doctor Bishop leaves the high intensity work for you. ASTRID: Agent Broyles. You know they're all over at Massive Dynamic. BROYLES: I know. I came to speak with you. For the past two days, an encryption team has been waiting for the data on the other Olivia's hard drive. ASTRID: Yeah. I hear it's one big mess. BROYLES: More than three hundred pages of material. Details about this world. Profiles on our people. Mission specifics. It's difficult to know what information's important. ASTRID: Well, I'm happy to help. BROYLES: I knew you would be. And we certainly could use your skills. But there's a reason I haven't already asked. Her mission logs are filled with personal observations. And many of them concern her relationship with Peter. And given what Peter and our Olivia have been through-- ASTRID: I understand. I'll be discreet. BROYLES: The file is on the mainframe. LSD Scene 11 ASTRID: Hey... BROYLES: Hey. ASTRID: I know you said only water, but... it might be good if you can eat something. But if you want, I can take it away. That's fine too. Whatever you like. BROYLES: Thank you... for this. ASTRID: What you're feeling right now. It's just the effects of the LSD. But it's temporary. BROYLES: No. It's infinite. It's all around us. You didn't see that. I didn't see that. But now I know. And I know it followed me. ASTRID: What followed you? BROYLES: Death. I saw death. All of it. And it was me. Can you hold my hand? Please. 6:02 AM / EST Scene 12 ASTRID: Are you sure you don't want me to call Olivia? PETER: If it doesn't work, she's gonna find out soon enough. Just tell her that -- ASTRID: Whatever it is, you'll tell her yourself. The Last Sam Weiss Scene 13 ASTRID: Peter would not want you to sit by his bedside and do nothing. I’ll make sure that the hospital calls us. We’ll be back before he wakes up. WALTER: I’m afraid I’m out of ideas. Forgive me if I’d like to spend my remaining time with my son. ASTRID: Well, what about Olivia? You saw how hard it was for her to leave him, but she’s out there trying to find a way to end this. WALTER: I too have tried. I went so far as to ask God for help. And how did he respond? Nothing. ASTRID: That’s your excuse? Come on now. What have you done, Walter? God helps those who help themselves. One Night In October Scene 14 ASTRID: Well, he just lost his partner. Plus he is new in town. He doesn't know anybody. He's probably a little lonely. OLIVIA: No. Not going to happen. ASTRID: Why not? He's cute. OLIVIA: Because if I went out with him, then I would start having second thoughts, like I always do, and then he would get hurt, and then my workplace would become awkward. And you know what? He's not even my type. ASTRID: Do you ever think that maybe your type just doesn't exist? Making Angels Scene 15 ASTRID: Hi. AGENT FARNSWORTH: Hello. ASTRID: Olivia told me about you. But it's nice to meet you personally in the flesh. AGENT FARNSWORTH: All personal meetings are in the flesh. ASTRID: Yes, I - I suppose they are. AGENT FARNSWORTH: I thought I would come here. I didn't know where to go after. Mother might have had traditions for such occasions, but I don't know. I don't remember her. My mother died of cancer when I was a girl. Did yours as well? ASTRID: Yes. AGENT FARNSWORTH: At first I thought I would walk in the park. But it was so cold. And I could not stop thinking about the words Reverend Stewart said. What a leader he was, a great man, a great friend. Reverend Stewart said he would be sorely missed. And they lowered the box down into the ground, and we put down flowers. And I didn't know where to go. Because the park was so cold. May I ask you a question? Yours -- did you love him? Scene 16 AGENT FARNSWORTH: You're angry with your son. WALTER: He is not my son. AGENT FARNSWORTH: As I understand it, in a different timeline, he is. WALTER: Oh, so he says. AGENT FARNSWORTH: Do you feel love for him? I have found that anger inevitably seems to be conjoined with emotional investment. Do you think that is the case? WALTER: Peter is a reminder of the son I had... and wish had lived. But he is not that son. AGENT FARNSWORTH: And that makes you suffer? WALTER: Yes. AGENT FARNSWORTH: In that case, wouldn't it be preferable if you chose to believe he was your son? And then you could love him and be happy Scene 17 AGENT FARNSWORTH: What's he doing? ASTRID: Thinking. AGENT FARNSWORTH: You care for him. ASTRID: I suppose I do, yeah. AGENT FARNSWORTH: Like a father. My father... I cannot get the thought out of my mind that... that I couldn't give him what he wanted because of the way that I am. That he secretly wished I could love him back in a way that he could understand. Do you think if I were more like you, he would've loved me more? If I was normal? Scene 18 STEPHEN FARNSWORTH: Hey. Well, look who's here. ASTRID: Hi, Dad. STEPHEN FARNSWORTH: Ah. That kinda day, huh? ASTRID: Yeah. That kind of a day. STEPHEN FARNSWORTH: Wanna tell me about it? ASTRID: Yes. But you know that I can't. STEPHEN FARNSWORTH: Yeah. I know. But at least I can feed ya. And I can give my baby girl a big ol' hug. Awww. ASTRID: I love you, Dad. STEPHEN FARNSWORTH: I love you too, Astrid. The Consultant Scene 20 WALTER: It's a miracle we made it in one piece. You drive like a daredevil. ASTRID: For the eleventh time, Walter, I drive the speed limit. WALTER: Most automobile fatalities occur driving between work and home. ASTRID: Yeah, so does most driving. Scene 21 ASTRID: Hello. My team's online. We're just standing by. AGENT FARNSWORTH: I'm ready whenever they are. ASTRID: It's nice to see you again. AGENT FARNSWORTH: Yes. ASTRID: Um... I brought you something. Oh, no, no, it's okay. I got permission. You like it? AGENT FARNSWORTH: I never thought that I was going to taste this again. Oh, here they are. Hello. Brave New World Part One Scene 22 ASTRID: Sir, I'm with the FBI. You're making a mis-- ARMED GUARD: Stop! Hands where I can see 'em. ASTRID: Look, this is all just a misunderstanding. WAREHOUSEMAN: Aah! ASTRID: Walter, come on! Oh. Brave New World Part Two Scene 23 BROYLES: Do you know who shot you? ASTRID: There was a crew of armed men. And they probably took Walter. Peter, I tried to protect him, but I couldn't get him out of there. PETER: I know you did. You said you were by the waterfront? ASTRID: The corner of First and Effie. Right down by the docks. And there was something going on there. We heard strange noises, animals that I didn't recognize. __________________
