Reminds me of playing with liquid thermal dynamics. Like warming one of those freezer pops, enough to melt the frozen parts around it, but cool it at the same time. So it becomes liquefied.
You know, I think the Netflix Carmen would have been better if they had done good flashbacks. Carmen was a teen right? Why not do flashbacks of when Carmen and Chase were partners and working together? Or when Chase was chasing Carmen? Or more about when Carmen quit?
