Katie Findlay stars as “Lucy Parker”, a fiery, smart graphic designer who dates Josh this season, despite being significantly cooler than he is. Although outwardly successful, Lucy is in some ways stunted in her maturity. She’s financially irresponsible, has a combative relationship with her parents, and regularly loses her temper. In order to overcome the obstacles of a long-term relationship she'll need to learn to compromise, forgive and grow up.
