Storyline
As their anniversary approaches, devoted wife SAM makes plans to surprise her controlling and disabled husband JEFF with the news of her pregnancy, only to discover that he's been faking his injuries for years and is unapologetically having an affair with another woman. With her trust shattered, Sam determines to find the proof she needs to expose him for the fraud that he is. Will fate set her free, or is she destined to remain trapped in his web of deceits forever?
Roles
Role typeRoleGender & Age range
LeadSAMFemale 30 - 40 Years old
Description
LEAD - SAM: Female, mid-30s
Sam is a dutiful wife, the breadwinner of the family ever since her husband Jeff ended up on disability some years before. Desperate to expand their family, Sam’s elated when she finds out that she’s pregnant until Jeff makes it clear he’s not interested in having a baby. Torn, she does her best to remain positive about their future until she discovers that Jeff’s being lying about his injuries, and is having an affair.

WARDROBE: Everyday casual, neutral tones, fitted t-shirts/tanks and jeans, minimal makeup and jewelry. She’s too busy working two jobs and caretaking for her husband and their house to worry about fashion.
Role typeRoleGender & Age range
LeadJEFFMale 35 - 45 Years old
Description
LEAD - JEFF: Male, late 30s.
Jeff, controlling and gruff, likes the comforts of marriage more than he loves being married. He’s been faking an injury for years and has reaped the benefits of Sam’s constant love and devotion ever since. He’s a manipulative liar, and because he’s used to getting what he wants, he unapologetically takes advantage of everyone around him.

WARDROBE: Two looks: At home he wears slouchy sweatpants and t-shirts, muted colors. When he’s seen cheating, he’s more put together– jeans and a button-down shirt, quaffed hair.
Role typeRoleGender & Age range
LeadEVANMale 30 - 40 Years old
Description
SUPPORTING - EVAN: Male, mid-30s
Naturally kind and supportive. Although he’s going through his own breakup, he encourages Sam to celebrate hers, wishing only the best for her relationship. He becomes an unlikely ally when Jeff’s lies are revealed.

WARDROBE: Casual, pullovers and jeans, a pair of “cool” running shoes. He has a slight edge to his wardrobe, a clear contrast to Jeff’s loungewear look.
Role typeRoleGender & Age range
LeadMADISONFemale 25 - 35 Years old
Description
SUPPORTING - MADISON: Female, late-20s
She’s not a bad person, per se, but she did a “bad” thing when she left her husband to have an affair with Jeff, whom she knows is married. She finds false love in their relationship which she’s quick to learn when she hears that Jeff’s been lying to her too.

WARDROBE: Her clothes are a little flashy; she’s not afraid of printed patterns on her shirts and loves super fitted skinny jeans. She wears more makeup than necessary and her hair is never out of place. No other jewelry other than the diamond bracelet that Jeff gives her.
