Anna Camp‘s guest star role on DMV comes with some major jealousy.
In Us Weekly‘s exclusive clip from the Monday, March 7, episode of the hit CBS series, shows Colette (Harriet Dyer) feeling left out when Robin (Camp) bonds with Vic (Tony Cavalero) and Gregg (Tim Meadows).
“Group breakfast without the whole group? Fun,” Colette asks as the trio enjoy a group hang without her. “Why didn’t you guys tell me about burritos and cookies?”
Robin clarifies that she tried to include Colette, adding, “I have been texting you, silly goose. Where have you been?” Colette, however, replies that all she’s been doing is “literally sitting at my desk — and staring at my phone.”
While many TV shows have made household names out of their star players, occasionally showrunners have been able to corral some of Hollywood’s biggest names to drop in for a surprising cameo during a complete episode or a single scene. Perhaps one of the most polarizing cameos belonged to Ed Sheeran on HBO’s Game of […]
When Robin checks the phone number she has for Colette, they realize she has been texting the wrong person. Colette is confused though since she was the one to input her number into Robin’s phone.
The topic quickly changes when Robin reveals she has a “big surprise for everybody.” The surprise turns out to be custom shirts since “the best driving examiner team needs the best shirts ever.”
Colette is the only employee whose shirt doesn’t seem to fit.
“I think I might need a different size,” she tells Robin, who replies, “You still look cute though.”
According to the official synopsis, the DMV “welcomes a new driving examiner, and Colette’s excitement fades when she realizes Robin may be trying to push her out. Noa helps Ceci manage her toxic relationship with Brent.”
DMV is a workplace comedy set in the dreaded DMV office, which centers on quirky minimum-wage employees who make the best of dealing with annoyed customers while finding solace in each other’s company.
In addition to Dyer, Camp, Meadows and Cavalero, DMV stars Molly Kearney, Alex Tarrant and Gigi Zumbado. CBS previously announced that Camp plays “an ambitious and highly driven wolf in sheep’s clothing, as she initially wins over everyone at the DMV, but soon the veil will fall, revealing her true self.” Ultimately, Robin is a “ruthless competitor who is hellbent on taking down Colette to become the branch’s ‘star driving examiner.’”
“She’s tricking me into thinking that she’s like this really wonderful person, and I really fall in love with her as an employee and stuff,” Meadows told TV Insider before the March episode.
Meadows was excited for viewers to see Camp’s performance. “I think she’s the best,” he said of Gregg’s initial opinion. “I’m like a sucker, because she makes these great cookies. Of course, that would be his downfall, the sweet treat.”
DMV airs on CBS Mondays at 8:30 p.m. ET. New episodes stream the next day on Paramount+.
