Kate is “at Constance,” but not part of the power circle of friends and doesn’t play by their rules. She is facing the challenge of gaining and keeping a sense of power and respect for herself. If asked why you’re seen in plain clothes, you can say that Kate is not one to play by the rules and is set apart from the rest of the characters. She has an interesting relationship with Julien that consumes a lot of her time. Audiences will have to watch to see how it transpires as the season goes on.
