THE BREAKDOWNS
Corie Bratter. 24 years old. Breathtakingly beautiful. Historically unique. Disarmingly charming. Enthusiastic, impulsive, impetuous, spontaneous, provocative, irresistible. She is young and in love. She is also a force of nature.
PAUL BRATTER. 26 years old. Handsome. Very handsome. Serious. Very serious. Mature. Very mature. Responsible. Very responsible. Rational, competent, stable, reasonable, reliable, dependable. He is young and in love. Although he intellectually understands that he is married; he cannot escape the feeling that he has been kidnapped.
ETHEL BANKS. 48 years old. She is Corie's mother. She is still very beautiful. But she has lost her way as far as her somewhat dowdy wardrobe is concerned. Not her fault. She lives alone in West Orange, New Jersey. No husband. No pets. Obviously no Vogue Magazines. She has a sensitive stomach, a bad back and an early acceptance to the AARP. Her inner-rock-star is awakened by Corie's upstairs neighbor, Victor Velasco.
