Zen recording: [voiceover] What we learned as children, that one plus one equals two, we know to be false. One plus one equals one. We even have a word for when you, plus another, equals one. That word is love.

TV Guide: How’s working with Damian Lewis?
Sarah Shahi: I just wish he’d keep his hands off me, that hound. No, he’s a happily married man. We laugh a lot and we sing a lot.
TV Guide: Do you like being surrounded by guys on the show?
Sarah Shahi: I love being surrounded by a bunch of charismatic men, but when we have a female guest star, I’m like, “You’re my new best friend!” I do talk to the female crew about gyno visits, men and tequila. My favorite subjects.

We interrupt our Charlie Crews schedule for a bit of Damian Lewis gushing. (Or just pretend that Crews and Amanda got married and had kids.)

CinemaSpy: Charlie seems to be getting closer to the answers he’s looking for. How do you think it will affect him if he eventually solves his case?
Damian Lewis: How will it affect Crews if he solves the case? Well I’ll have to look for another job, so I hope he doesn’t. I hope he doesn’t solve the case.
Rand Ravich: He’s going to move over to be in Chuck.
Damian Lewis: Yeah, right. He’s just going to go guest-starring in all the other TV series. You know, if he finds out finally who did it, who set him up for the triple murder, I think that’ll be some kind of closure and he’ll be able to carry on with his life as normal. But I don’t think he’s that close to finding where they are. I mean, he’s - something he’s established early on in this season’s show - what becomes clear is it’s more than just one person who’s been operating this thing. There are five or six of them and he’s going to systematically work his way through them and find out exactly where that leads him. We don’t know how deep, how high up this corruption will go, who’s behind the whole conspiracy. Why was he set up? Was it something personal, vindictive, or was he just - was he a fall guy? Was he just in the wrong place at the wrong time?
Rand Ravich: But from an internal level there is this kind of vengeance machine inside the Charlie Crews character that at any moment he could decide he’s had enough and he can walk away. But if he needs that satisfaction, that vengeance - that is very un-Zen-like - he’ll never stop looking. And so at some point the question has to be asked: Is this enough? Have I closed enough circles? Have I gained enough vengeance? And can I get back to life or will it never be enough? So that conspiracy level works both from the inside and the outside.
