Offscreen is Amos hitting on Lwaxana who just kind of materialized on the Roci. Holden blamed the Protomolecule, and Amos named her "Pumpkins".
I just realized I dont know who this lady is in real life, i think i never saw her prior to the expanse and then in a bunch of other recent sci fi movies. Seems unusual that an actress would achieve popularity only with age, mostly it is the reverse. Not to say I dislike her, she is great and very memorable with her hardass roles and chain smoker voice.
Shohreh Aghdashloo. She was an actress in Iran before she moved to the US. The only other role of hers I'm familiar with is Dina Araz on the fourth season of 24. I think she also did a voice role for Archer. She's got a lot of acting credits, though.
But yeah, she does play some badass hardasses lol.

Kathryn Joosten decided to get into acting at age 53 and played all sorts of memorable character roles until her death in 2012.
Sounds like you just haven’t been aware of what she’s been in.
She had a Best-supporting actress Oscar nomination in 2004 for ‘The House of Sand and Fog’ and Primetime Emmy win in 2009 for Outstanding Actress in a miniseries or movie.
It’s more the case that , as for Michelle Yeoh, older women seem to get meatier roles in science fiction and fantasy than in mainstream or art house productions.
I would love to see Shorleh come over to the Trek franchise in a worthy role. I can definitely see her standing out in the 25th century.
Shohreh is also great as Admiral Shala'Raan vas Tonbay in Mass Effect.
Oh, I really want to see Riker and Avasarala in scenes together now. I think she'd take to him as fast as she did to Cotyar... not as quick as she took a liking to Bobby though.
And she'd appreciate the Enterprise's gravity plating.
"Riker, don't put your dick into this situation, it's fucked enough already."
Something tells me she'd be more impressed with Picard. She would quickly become friends with Janeway too.
Chrissy: "Your name is Chrissy too?"
Riker: "No! That's why I'm so fucking confused right now."
She'd call him Will FUCKING Ryker
He'd reply that it only happened once, and who told her he had a teleporter clone?
“Don’t put your dick in this, Riker - it’s already fucked enough.”
