Yes, which only angers me more about the Interlude. And this preview shot...
Now I have to watch Zoey or whomever these two rando fuckheads are working in a tattoo parlour? It's bad enough I probably have to sit through a surfing mini game in the ocean (dodging waves or whatever), but now I have to watch the drama of tattoo business like one of those mind-numbing reality tv shows? What does any of this have to do with B&R? I don't care about Zoey's backstory living at beach. I'd really like to see a preview render of the Interlude that increases instead of decreases excitement and provides some kind of purposeful link to the world of B&R beyond just: hey, Zoey is in it. Let's watch her sniff paint and whore around san Diego until she runs out of money and comes to the conclusion that she misses MC and and/or Neil's big dicks.
Some more preview shots and a good description of what exactly we are getting with the Interlude would alleviate a lot of concerns.
P.S. And even if you do get overly attached to these new characters, it's a one and done for all of them except Zoey. The entire cast isn't picking up and moving to B&R. You're never going to see these people again after the Interlude.
