She doesn't want to disappoint anyone.In this new series, when Kyra and Darra embark on a quest to find a legendary lost temple, Kyra's magic accidentally awakens a dangerous object causing fairy and elf magic to malfunction. She's definitely able to make her mistakes, she is a bit of a mess, but she is, deep down, a really good kid. She's tried getting his advice to apologize (to people), but she didn't necessarily get that right. And now she sees him in her dream and she's wanting to be perfect. We've reached that breaking point where Devi has tried listening to her father's voice, and now that's not really working. It doesn't go away magically, because that's not realistic. Ramakrishnan: At the end of Season 1, she started to confront her grief. How would you describe her arc in Season 2? Q: I loved when Devi's dad appears in her dream and tells her, "Just because you made some mistakes doesn’t mean you deserve to settle for less." It seems like a good summation of her journey overall. So we felt excited and blessed that she wanted to do it. Being gorgeous and underestimated just felt like a funny thing plus she is a joy to work with and was a fan of the show. Kaling: She's obviously an incredibly famous model and someone who people think of in a certain way because of the way she walks on the catwalk or who she's dating or who her family is. Q: After Chrissy Teigen, why did Gigi Hadid seem like the best fit to narrate Paxton's solo episode? (Tennis star John McEnroe is the show's sardonic primary narrator.) Kaling and Ramakrishnan discuss the Season 2 finale, favorite jokes and last-minute addition of model Gigi Hadid, who replaced Chrissy Teigen as the narrator of one episode following accusations of cyberbullying in May. With its heightened emotions and eleventh-hour suggestion that Ben might've stood a chance with Devi, the season finale "reminded me of 'Can't Hardly Wait' and a bunch of '90s high-school romantic comedies," Kaling says.
