The whole point of the story is people have been forced to pick sides and that's why a civil war happens. We are imploring the audience not to do that, and to really empathize with every character and see inside their inner workings.
In scenes together, Cooke's arch line deliveries and holier-than-thou smirks spark against D'Arcy's regal defensiveness and cool anger. This chemistry seeps into real life, too; during a Zoom call the day after 'The Black Queen' airs, the pair speak warmly and easily of the bond they built on set.
