[CLAYTON HENRY JONES] In his late 20s, Clayton is a supremely gifted
African-
American attorney, keen, very well educated, stylish in an
understated way. Originally a
foundling raised in foster homes, Clayton now lives with his adopted
mother, Dessa Lee,
and his blind sister Sherine. A man with an IQ of 180, polished and
very successful at
his current firm, Clayton is a fixer, a guy who draws attention when
he enters a room,
expert at dealing with people, expert at exploiting their strengths
and vulnerabilities.
Working for the firm of Weinstein and Houck, Clayton is brought in to
deal with their top
client, hotelier William Stone Junior, and makes it plain to Stone
that he's ready to jump
ship and have Stone as his sole personal client. But in fact, Clayton
is more than a
smart, ambitious hustler; he is absolutely obsessed with the wealthy
and powerful Stone
family, and is quietly, subtly hell-bent on burrowing within their
gated community and,
perhaps, is intent on destroying them from within...SERIES REGULAR

[WILLIAM STONE JUNIOR] 50 years old, smart, rich and amoral, William
is the ownermanager
of the Rose Hotel, a world famous luxury hotel in Beverly Hills.
William is
Clinton-esque: charming, charismatic and fun, you never see the knife
until it's too late.
The head of the third generation of owners, William has inherited his
property, fortune,
and social status from his father, who's now feeble to the point of
unconsciousness. A
man who's come to be expert at handling the problems of the wealthy,
William is half
hotelier and half pimp, expert at arranging sexual liaisons for his
yachting buddies. But
beneath William's exquisite poise, he's a bit of a society criminal,
an adulterer who uses
the odd bit of blackmail to further his agenda, which now includes
one pressing problem:
finding an heir to his power from among his three rotten brats -- or
if necessary, from
somewhere else...SERIES REGULAR (2)
[CONSTANCE HARVEY STONE] 50 years old, lovely, subtle, and
intelligent, Constance
is William's long-suffering wife. There's something a little tight
about Constance, like a
held breath. A society woman with a certain Jackie Kennedy ambience
to her,
Constance has learned to look regal while being the center of public
attention -- and to
turn a blind eye to her husband's adulteries. A woman who's preparing
to receive an
award from PETA for her devotion to the cause of animal rights,
Constance is the kind of
person whose arrival at the hotel always causes behind-the-scenes
activity, as her
husband struggles to get his pants on and the kitchen staff hides the
roach exterminator
from view. But beneath her serene exterior is a caustic veteran of
assorted marital wars,
who is painfully aware of every glaring flaw in her husband's
character...SERIES
REGULAR (5)
[CHARLOTTE MARIE STONE] 25ish, Charlotte is one of William and
Constance's three
children. A stunning, mischievous woman, good-natured and full of
life, with different
coloring from her two siblings, Charlotte is an adopted child, but
Dunne and Jo-Elle show
no sign of treating her with disdain. An abandoned child who was
taken in by the Stones,
Charlotte is more thoughtful than her zany siblings, and she appears
to be quite
attracted to her father's new attorney, Clayton Henry Jones...SERIES

[DUNNE STONE (WILLIAM STONE III)] 28ish, blunt and muscular, Dunne is
the oldest
of William Junior's three children. A man whose birth came this close
to killing his
mother, Dunne is known behind his back as "Dumb." Currently dating
Stacy Harper, a
rather trashy girl, Dunne introduces Stacy to his family at a dinner
party, during which he
reveals himself to have a coarse taste of humor to match his coarse
taste in
women...RECURRING (31) SOME TASTEFUL NUDITY REQUIRED
[JO-ELLE STONE] The third of the three Stone children, Jo-Elle is
23ish, high strung,
unpredictable, sexy, trouble. Born with Prader-Willi Syndrome, Jo-
Elle has an out of
whack hunger gene; no matter how much she eats, she's never
satisfied. She's tried
with varying success to channel her ravenous craving into boys,
girls, drugs, alcohol,
cycling, and other sports. A girl who apparently regards vomiting as
a vital part of every
meal, Jo-Elle is regularly seen at every family gathering, and
appears to have a bad
case of the hots for her brother's new girlfriend, Stacy...RECURRING

[MR. FLORES] 74, Latin, with a weathered face and hands, Mr. Flores
is the gardener at
the Rose Hotel, a man who is used to seeing all kinds of curious
predators slithering
down from the foothills and onto the grounds. More comfortable in
Spanish than English,
Mr. Flores has apparently worked at the hotel -- well, forever, and
he knows more than
his share of secrets. An outwardly inscrutable guy, he knows Clayton
well, and
apparently knows exactly what Clayton is up to -- which is a lot more
than is included in

[GINA TORINO / APAULA LARSON] Mid to late 20s, an attractive young
African-
American woman, conservatively dressed, who speaks in hushed,
innocent tones, first
seen under the false name of Apaula Larson, she is a former employee
of William
Junior's, who sues him for sexual harassment. When her testimony is
ruthlessly
shredded by Clayton during the delivery of an affidavit, Apaula
hastily settles for
$250,000 and skedaddles clutching a fistful of settlement. But
afterwards, she is
revealed to be Gina Torino, Clayton's steady girlfriend. Delighted
that Clayton got her a
quarter of a mil in exchange for a few weeks work, Gina is horrified
to realize that
Clayton, who seems so cooly rational, actually has an idee fixe, an
obsession with the
Stone family that is terrifying in its extent...RECURRING GUEST STAR

Dunne Stone. A young woman who has hard a hard life, Stacy is trying
to take a big step
up in class, but probably doesn't have the grace to pull it off.
Regarded by the Stone
family as Dunne's Tart Of The Month, Stacy wears an assortment of low-
cut, seethrough
dresses in order to help keep Dunne's interest awake, but it marks
her as a
vulgar trollop for the rest of the family -- all except Jo-Elle,
whose bisexual antennae

[SHERINE] Clayton's fraternal twin sister, African-American, in her

lives with him at his high rise apartment on Doheny Drive, and is his
regular confidante.
But Sherine is obliged to have a less active social life than her
brother, and for a very
good reason: she is blind. Very fond of her brother, and delighted by
his playful teasing,
Sherine listens with interest as Clayton shares with her his
accumulated intel on the
doings of the Stone family...RECURRING GUEST STAR (8)
[DESSA LEE] Late 40s, African-American, she is Clayton's fairly
young, attractive
mother. Convinced that Clayton is "way too obsessed with these white

[PHILLIPPE DELGADO] 20 years old, an internationally famous singer,
thin and
gorgeous and a complete swine, with an accent somewhere between
Barcelona and
Scarface, Philippe is a privileged creep with an odious sense of
entitlement and a taste
for younger woman -- as in 15 year olds. A guy who foolishly treats
William as another
servant to be barked at and dismissed, Philippe makes the error of
boinking a seemingly
underage hooker in William's hotel, and soon finds himself a
blackmail victim. Unable to
complain to the law that he's been videotaped in an unlawfully act of

[CARTER MOORE] In his late 50s, one of William's plutocrat friends,
Carter is the CEO
of America's largest publicly traded defense company -- thus his
peccadilloes could
influence a market swing. Unhappily married to Megan, who's not only
Constance's
close friend but a major termagant, Carter has found love in the arms
of a 30 year old
redhead, and it's plunged him into a suicidal depression. Painfully
aware that
dismembering his marriage to Megan and starting over again would be
messy and
expensive, Carter is in a drunkenly self-pitying mood that threatens
to turn selfdestructive
at any minute -- and William is watching him like a hawk, wondering
whether
or not to dump his stock...MAJOR GUEST STAR (4)
[MEGAN MOORE] 50 years old, beautiful, hard, and rich, Megan is
Carter's perpetually
disaffected spouse. Aware that her husband uses William's hotel as
his private
whorehouse, Megan views William with icy hatred -- pretty much the
same icy hatred
she has for Carter. Closely involved with Constance in the planning
of the PETA benefit,
Megan is actually ready to run right off the rails -- and when Carter

Weinstein assigns Clayton to deal with a sexual harassment case,

[GABEY] 20s. He's an heroic sailor, a farm-raised romantic, and a one-
woman guy. On
leave for the day in New York City, Gabey confesses to his shipmates
that he's on a
mission to find true love. Smitten with the photo he saw on a subway
ad for the new
"Miss Turnstiles," Gabey, with a song in his heart, sets out to find
her ...LEAD (1-1-2)
LEGIT BARITONE/TENOR
[OZZIE] 20s. He is a scrappy, self-assured, tall, well-built, though
not too bright sailor
from Scranton, who has a problem with impulse control. During his
shore leave with his
mates, Ozzie longs to shake the coal dust off, and make some time
with the glamorous
women in New York City...LEAD (1-1-2) BARITONE. ALL ETHNICITIES
[CHIP] 20s. Hailing from Peoria, Illinois, he's an organized,
methodical, short sailor with
small town values. Chip is eager to go sightseeing with his buddies
while ashore for the
day in New York City. Equipped with his guidebook, he organizes their
agenda, and is a
little put off by Ozzie's preoccupation with scoping out women,
instead of
landmarks...LEAD (1-1-2) TENOR. ALL ETHNICITIES
[CLAIRE DE LOONE] 30. She is an attractive anthropologist in constant
war with the
duality of her nature. A smartly dressed, officious, poised woman,
Claire has a tendency
to lose her detachment around the opposite sex. Currently writing a
book for the Natural
History Museum about modern man, she is awed by Ozzie's resemblance to
Pithecanthropus Erectus, her fascination mistaken for flirtation.
After explaining herself,
and announcing she is engaged to be married, Claire confesses the
other side of her
nature to Ozzie, and their inevitable romance begins to
percolate...LEAD (1-6-27)

BIG BELT VOICE
[IVY SMITH] Late 20s. A beautiful, vulnerable, wannabe
actress/singer/dancer, she is
"Miss Turnstiles," the New York City subway's pick for the month of
June, and the object
of Gabey's desires. Despite her bravado, Ivy's confidence in her
talents is fragile. She's
also in debt to her vocal coach for lessons, a woman who has warned
her to keep
romance at bay and concentrate on earning money. But when Gabey
begins courting
her, Ivy's outlook changes - for the better...LEAD (1-4-15) MUST BE A
SUPERB
DANCER
[MADAME MAUDE P. DILLY] 50s. She's a tough old vocal teacher, a
bitter bully with a
sordid past, whose sole focus in life is to make a living. In between
swigs of whiskey,
she doles out false hope to her aspiring students, one of which is
Ivy Smith. Dilly objects
to Ivy's interest in Gabey, warning her to keep her mind on her
lessons, or
else...SUPPORTING LEAD (1-8-40) CHARACTER BELT VOICE
[PITKIN J. BRIDGEWORK] 45, suave, stately, and portly, this
gentlemanly judge is
Claire's fiance. Understanding, and patient, he has high hopes, that
under his tutelage,
she can overcome her obsession with men. Ultimately he comes to
realize that he's
been quite naive, and his sweet demeanor turns bitter. But, it's only
temporary, as by
that time, he's found a new romance: Hildy's roommate, Lucy...LEAD (1-

exit to go see a movie. She later finds mutual chemistry with Judge
