'The word "finale" gives me a physical reaction because it’s the hardest day on set that I’ve ever had in my life,' she said.
'I never even imagined that as an actor you could have that experience. It’s one of the most raw experiences that I think any of us have ever had.
'Andy talks about being late to work; I didn’t want to go to work that day,' she admitted. 'It took a really, really long time for everybody to feel okay again after the finale, let’s put it that way.'
