Jeffrey Tambor’s transgender “Transparent” character will consider gender reassignment surgery in Season 2 of the the Amazon series.
A new trailer Entertainment Weekly released Thursday shows Maura Pfefferman (Tambor) contemplating the major life decision, along with telling her mother about her decision to come out as a woman.
In a more lighthearted moment, the preview shows fellow trans women Shea and Davina teach Maura how to appropriately say “yas queen.”

"The subject matter [of 'Transparent'] needs light and love and understanding."
"Did I know what I was getting into? You don't really think that way. But I remember many times talking to Jill. We'd be in the middle of a scene, and I would say, 'Oh, this is so big.'"
