      Jessica: Supporting character, Olivia’s sister, lawyer, arrested. Wants to prove her innocence, needs to learn that life is unfair. Starts with attitude "People are fallible, therefore trust the system". Ends with the attitude "People are fallible, and the system is made up of people"

      Toby: Love interest, Cop, fugitive. Wants to get his job back and help Olivia, needs to be less trusting. Starts with the attitude "People are fallible and that's why they're interesting". A sitcom character who has been put into a thriller film.

      Mother: Corpse, dead, friendly. Wants Olivia to be more trusting. Had the attitude "People are fallible, but they're doing their best".

      Wendy: Donald's ex wife, Olivia's potential future. Wants to stop happening to Olivia what happened to her. Has the attitude "People are fallible, therefore don't trust anyone".

      Olivia’s Apartment: She keeps her stuff here. Sure hope no one ransacks it!

      Police Station: Toby works here. Unfortunately, so does Francine. Also this is apparently where they take drug-smuggling lawyers who have been arrested.

      Diner: Toby firmly maintains that this place has New York's best maple nut glaze rolls.
