BERNARD - Male, mid-late 40s. Jacqueline's husband. He’s a not-so-faithful husband who’s planning a weekend with his mistress, Suzanne, at his home in the country. Eager to please and not make waves but longs for excitement and the way attention from the opposite sex makes him feel.
JACQUELINE - Female, 30s - 40s. Bernard's wife. A not-so-faithful wife but ultimately loves Bernard. Likes things the way she likes them and is strong willed.
ROBERT - Male, mid-late 40s. Bernard's single friend and Jacqueline's lover. As Bernard’s alibi, he gets tangled up in his own affair, stumbling into a number of lies in an attempt to get what he wants without destroying his friendship. Ever so slightly bumbling but has an honest heart.
SUZETTE - Female, late 20s - 40s. George’s wife. She is a Cordon Bleu, private cook. She is a quirky plain Jane who later transforms into a rather flamboyant mistress.
SUZANNE - Female, late 30s - 40s. She’s a bombshell, and she’s Bernard's mistress. Though she’s a model and actress, she’s forced to play the cook upon her arrival to the country home.
