Seeking:

DR. FRANK FONG: Chinese American male, 30-40’s. Former dentist, anal, obsessive, tense, neurotic.
ERIC GALINDO: Filipino American male, 20’s. Young, hip, brash, playful.
JULIE FOTONI: Samoan American female, late 20’s-early 30’s. Strong, yet sweet, confident and lively.
GRACE KIM: Korean American female, late 60’s-early 70’s. Loving, caring grandmother type, but will smack the crap out of you if you deserve it.
NORTON BIGGS: Caucasian male, 30’s. Super ‘wannabe’ Japanese American. Quirky, dramatic, desperate, buffoonish.
REIKO TANAKA: Japanese American female, mid-late 20’s. Okazaki’s secretary. Genuine, thoughtful, shy yet spirited.
