CAST OF CHARACTERS

 

The Troop:

 

• Merry Wrath—Ex-CIA agent, Girl Scout leader, and full-time dead body magnet.

 

• Dr. Soo Jin Body—County Medical Examiner—annoyingly gorgeous.

 

• Betty—A feisty 4th grader with issues (far too many to list here).

 

• Lauren—Creative kid with a quirky outlook and penchant for booby traps.

 

• Inez—Clever and resourceful, Inez is the idea kid.

 

• Ava—A natural leader of girls, not afraid to give marching orders (read—a bit bossy).

 

The Girl Scout Council:

 

• Stacey Gillespie—Girl Scout Director of Camps—a real trooper with a positive attitude.

 

• Juliette Dowd—Possible Satan's spawn.

 

The Guests:

 

• Thad and Wren Gable—Wealthy young couple. Thad is an attorney, and Wren manages an art gallery. Thad is arrogant, and Wren is jittery—which means their marriage is a challenge to themselves and everyone else.

 

• Caroline Regent—A no-nonsense, gruff, middle-aged doctor. Practical to the point of forgetting that there are other people in the world.

 

• Dennis Blunt—Twenty-something trust-fund baby with no goals in life beyond downloading the latest version of whatever video game can keep him from having to work. Coerced into going by parents, who were unable to come.

 

• Arthur and Violet Kasinski—A wealthy couple in their 70s. Generous donors, from old money (well, for Iowa) who love kids but were unable to have any.

 

• Taylor Burke—Forty-year-old first female CEO of one of the largest insurance companies in the world. Was once a Girl Scout and lets everyone know it by saying irritating things like, "That's not how we did it when I was in Scouts."

 

• Enos McQuaid—Nouveau riche. Enos made fast money creating an app that reminds people to brush their teeth. Sold his company for millions. Bored, which is how he got talked into coming.

 

The Staff:

 

• Miriam Cooper—Housekeeper/cook, in her thirties. Very quiet. Makes a mean lasagna.

 

• Ned Odom—Groundskeeper/handyman, in his sixties. Scary to everyone but Betty.
