He was relentlessly bullied for his actions and generally just for the hell of it.

Emma took the break-up very hard and stopped at nothing to make Sean miserable, almost losing Chris in the process.

Heather Sinclair

Heather Sinclair

An almost completely unseen character mentioned in passing frequently. All we know of her is what other people, mostly Paige, gossip about. From what's gathered, she was both incredibly popular, pretty, and mean, as well as hilariously unlucky, apparently receiving shoddy plastic surgery, contracting mono, and generally being an excuse for an event going on having an open spot requiring a character to replace her in the last minute. She was the older sister of Holly J, and for some reason attended a different school district than her. Heather graduated in 2006.


  • Alpha Bitch: Paige admits that Heather is the only girl in school bitchier than her.
  • Break the Haughty: If some of the stuff we've heard of her is true, then she must have had some hard times in school, from all the injuries, sicknesses, and incidents going on in her life.
  • Card-Carrying Villain: Described as a drowner of puppies, much to Holly J's pride.
  • Informed Flaw: Apparently has a "disgusting over bite" and a horribly botched nose job.
  • The Ghost
  • Pet the Dog: After Rick's shooting, she leaves a card for Jimmy's memorial.
  • The Un-Reveal: You can almost see her in the background of one scene in the season 4 episode "Neutron Dance". But Not quite.
  • Unreliable Narrator: It's hard to be certain what we know about her is actually true, seeing as how most of the terrible things we hear about her are from Paige. And Paige hates her.
