The Flash: Jessica Camacho on The Vibe/Gypsy Relationship

01/31/2017 06:55 pm EST

There are rumors that Gypsy and Vibe will eventually end up as a couple on The Flash, so it's probably no surprise to anyone that when Jessica Camacho brings Cindy Reynolds (Gypsy) to the series for the first time tonight, her first order of business will be to kill him.

Camacho, for her part, told ComicBook.com that coming onto an established show and trying to create a love interest for a popular character can be a little daunting -- even without the murdery parts.

"You know, there's always a little nervousness surrounding that because you don't know if you're going to connect to the character or the actor in that way, and it can make for a very awkward conversation," Camacho told ComicBook.com. "My method is just to kind of feel it out. I knew after reading the script and understanding what Gypsy wants what makes her tick and I was able to gauge when she met Cisco what she found interesting about him, what she found endearing, what made her cock her head to the side and take another look at him. With Cisco, there's so much there to be interested in and so much there to be intrigued by that it was really easy to play with all of that."

Camacho explained that she hadn't watched the show before she landed the audition, so after cramming two seasons in preparation for the part, she's presumably as big a Cisco fan as everybody else is now.

"The thing that makes all of these characters interesting and that allows people to connect to them is their humanity," Camacho said. "So instead of starting with 'Oh my God, they're from a different universe? Do they act differently? Do they talk differently?' No, it's like you start with what do they want? Who are they? What are they looking for? What's important to them? What are their abilities? What do they want? What drives them? You connect to the things that as a human you resonate with. That's what makes a show like The Flash interesting: if they were just super far out with their personalities and the things that drove them were so far out it seemed like they were from another universe, it would be hard to follow. But what makes it relatable is that they're from a universe and they're up against all these crazy unimaginable foes, but what drives them is their humanity."
