We really did look into ourselves and ask, How do we feel about this?

Does this feel right to us?

Does this feel correct?

Youre just going to make something that feels all over the place, Robinson tells EW.

With the help of lots and lots of research, the show carefully crafted every moment of Jules journey.

Along the way, some details stood out as more striking than others.

All this time, Nate thought Jules was avoiding him because theyd cheated.

I read a lot, Robinson says about creating that moment.

I think that they are just as complicated as women.

All thats not to say that Nate isnt a villain on the show.

After Jules is assaulted, she reaches out to a Title IX officer at the school for help.

Its a moment that shocked some and will probably resonate with others.

And its another detail that Robinson knew she wanted to include.

We actually spoke to a Title IX officer at a very big school.

Thats happening a lot, so its women and men who arent necessarily malicious or looking to hurt anyone.

They just literally arent qualified to do this job, yet they have the job.

In the end, Jules story was the shows greatest challenge and also its greatest triumph.

Its not doing them justice.

We have to dig deeper.

Theres something better here; we have to find it,' Robinson says.

I am very proud of it.
