ISOM: Black, Male, 30s. A new friend. Playlists include gospel and trap and that’s exactly how he talks. Met the duo at church.
BIG CHARLES: Black, Male, 40s. Old friend. Met the duo at the barbershop. Observant, laid-back. The rock. Probably better suited to become a doctor or a lawyer, but he was raised to love the game.

TJ: Black, Male, 40s. Everett’s father. A long-time dealer who is “about that life.” Struggles with teaching his son how to be a man, but unsure if Cordell and Dwayne can be good father figures to his son.
