About the Character
Lucy is a temp at the firm that Dave works at and a little bit weird and maybe somewhat crazy. She is also someone who doesn't really care about what people think of her and is blunt and very direct and says what's on her mind even if that is admitting that she wants to kill everyone in the office. She is also a bad influence on Dave which he doesn't seem to mind since being with her makes him feel like the normal one.
