She brings a surprisingly forceful voice and a sure comic instinct. It is fun to watch her lapse from her assumed machismo--as when, on exclaiming of Olivia, "She loves me sure," she girlishly claps her hands over her face, or repeatedly swoons at the prospect of having to duel with Sir Andrew.

Then one second later I thought, why did I wash the blood off? I should have left it there, let them see what they've done. If I'd just had the blood...
