Sometimes I shouldn't use words

Yes, thrust into greatness, exactly. I didn't use the inauguration footage from the miniseries but rewatched it a lot while clipping and it's so clear the time when she realises she has to step up. I'm so glad if that came across from the vid, she's quite vulnerable in the early sections but grows stronger and harder from then on, taking on some of the qualities of the very thing she's fighting. A great female character.
