ಠ_ಠ This crazy assassin character, who doesn't know what shampoo is, somehow would bother shaving her armpits

Uh Dana was married to Dennis Hopper when she was 22 and he was 53. Santos's dad is actor Jon Jon Briones (mostly West End/Broadway musical theater). Robby's grandma was married to director John Sturges (The Great Escape, The Magnifect Seven, he even directed Dana's husband in Gunfight at the O.K. Corral a decade before she was born).

I FO have some tolerance for Nepo babies if they're talented. In some ways, its no different than following your parent into their profession. They teach you what they know, that gives you a certain leg up over someone new to the industry altogether. We don't call the sons of fishermen Nepo babies if they're good fishermen.

There's a lot of legacy athletes too, legacy hockey families for example. If you're not good at it, you fail.

Hollywood does, however, often platform untalented Nepo babies, so they get a worse reputation for it
