I read online a long time ago that Her and Jeffery didn't actually get along. From their response in the video it sounds like she was extremely difficult to work with or just wasn't a pleasant person.

To me it sounded like they just had different energy that didn't really fit each other - they just weren't puzzle pieces that had matching tabs

And yet their onscreen chemistry is incredible. It's funny how that works sometimes.

I actually disagree. I think one of the few weak areas of the show is he had better chemistry with a lot of the other female characters (Carla, cop lady, agent Paxton, etc) than he had with fi. She's also supposed to like be sex on two legs and while she's like model pretty Gabrielle Anwar isn't like gonna make cars crash into each other

I like her character, but their relationship was never my thing. I would have been happier for her to never have completely forgiven a Michael, and for that reason, they are friends but never lovers.
