Sosa
Character is male, 50s-60s. A ruthless mob boss and the father of Jimmy Boy, Sosa is a man who demands deference; he's the kind of guy you simply do not cross, ever. He's a doting parent who's been seething for the last six years, because his darling boy has been locked up in prison, thanks to the conniving of a rat. But now Sosa (who is capable of operatic levels of joy, grief, and rage) is getting his son back, and he's planned a series of parties (and bloody revenge) that will set this town back on its ears. And then, just because of a time machine, everything starts to go wrong, like a goddamned game of Jenga.
Jimmy Boy
Character is male, 30 years old. This handsome idiot is Sosa's only son and heir apparent. He spent the last six years of his life in prison, thanks to a rat in the organization, and for his first day of freedom, his doting father has prepared a night-long round of parties and presents and sexual escapades. Unable to perform sexually after his moron friend Dumbass Tony warns him about such an eventuality, Jimmy Boy has a very long night that will never be repeated --because Jimmy Boy does not live to see the dawn...
The Barron (Chet)
Character is male, 40s-60s. The greatest assassin in the known world, this khaki-clad killer has been hired by Sosa to assassinate Mike at the Zenith Hotel; he is first seen in clip-on sunglasses and an untucked polo shirt. He looks like a tourist from the Midwest, not an infamous cannibal assassin from central Europe. After apparently shooting Mike to death, he is revealed to be Chet, an expert on squibs and fake movie deaths, who has been hired by Future Nick to impersonate The Barron just long enough to teach Nick a lesson. He enjoys the experience tremendously...
Dumbass Tony
Character is male, 30s-40s. One of Jimmy Boy's dearest friends, he's called Dumbass Tony because he always says the wrong thing at the wrong time (the dumbass). A guy who knows how to party and shares his cocaine with any other made man in the room, Dumbass Tony talks about his erectile dysfunction problems with Jimmy Boy, and causes Jimmy Boy to lose all interest in and ability to perform sexual peccadilloes, no matter how delicious.
Symon
Character is male-presenting or non-binary, 30’s-40’s. A brilliant scientist with a minor in musical theater. Could headline an off Broadway show if he wasn’t preoccupied with his passion for inventing gadgets. A lifelong friend of Alice's, Symon is hard at work on a time machine, and foolishly borrows money from loanshark Nick to finish his work -- he figures he can always go back in time and steal the interest. But it takes far too long for Symon to finish his research, and he gets shot to death by Nick -- who uses the time machine to head back to the past before it blows up...NOTE: Singing Billy Joel’s ‘Why Should I Worry?’ will be requested in audition.
Cop #1 - Officer Scheer
Character is male, 30s-50s. This patrol officer comes by the gas station to investigate a report of a stolen car -- only he recognizes Nick, whom he knows very well. Officer Scheer is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Mob (he's a very dirty cop), and he makes certain that the Stoned Cashier stifles his complaint. He thinks he’s cool but no one in the mob respects him. Always willing to do the boys a favor, he later plants a vast assortment of ammunition at Sosa's mansion, no questions asked...
Stoned Cashier
Character is male, late 20s to mid 30s. A stoned cashier at a gas station, he's in a pointlessly argumentative mood, and has a quarrel with Nick, who believes that sugar-free candy is actually candy. After Nick pulls a gun and is ready to kill him, the Stoned Cashier hopes that Officer Scheer (who's in the neighborhood) will arrest Nick -- only Scheer is so dirty that he backs Nick's play, all the way, and Stoned Cashier is obliged to stay out of the three-way battle royale that soon follows...

JAKE
[JAKE ROBERTS] 34 years old, slick and well put-together, Jake is the co-host of "Renovation Romance," and he is Chelsea's partner, on and off camera. But Jake is just a bit shallow and self-absorbed, an ambition monster who never lets anything (like love) get in the way of building his brand. Jake doesn't quite realize that Chelsea has seen through him, all the way to the bottom of his soul (all three inches), but when she decides it's time for them to cut the bonds that formerly united them, Jake feels a mighty burst of relief -- somebody finally said it!

DON
[DON WALTERS] Male, in his 50s, a striking man in an immaculate dark suit, Don is the CEO of the production company that makes "Renovation Romance," and he's very happy at the end of Season One -- so happy that he orders his two leads to star in a live Christmas special in Vermont. The kind of Dapper Don who makes decisions and doesn't really care how high his employees have to jump in order to get the job done, he has another brainstorm, right before the Christmas special goes live: How about if Jake proposes to Chelsea, just in time for Christmas?
