I just saw the episode three days ago, it's possible I remembered it wrong.
I think we can all agree that her accent is atrocious? Even Bianca Lawson hated that accent and struggled with it. It's not Trinidad - because I have co-workers from Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica. And she doesn't sound like them at all.
How recently did you visit Trinidad and Tobago?
NYC has a heavy Caribbean population. I've had a Jamaican boss, the guy who has the office next to my boss is Jamaican. I have security guards from Trinidad, and various other co-workers. Her accent is closer to Nigeran, actually, but a very mangled Nigeran.
It was a horrible choice and cringe upon watching. Doesn't date well at all.
