Monica Talbot is Marty Kaan's x-wife and also a Management Consultant employed by a rival firm who is ranked #1 to Marty's firm, ranked a close second. Though it is pointed out early on that the firm that ranks Consulting firms just so happens to be the one Monica works for. Monica is a pill poppin, booze swillin, narcissistic sex addict who cannot seem to leave Marty alone both in and out of the bedroom, or bathroom, or, well, any place she can get him cornered with at least a semblance of privacy no matter how flimsy it is in reality. Some might even say she is the feminine version of Marty himself. She is a very absentee mother to Roscoe, their son, and has been a unstable, emotionally unavailable and distant figure in his life for the past 8 or so years. Recently though her rivalry with Marty has oozed over from the corporate playing field and into the private as she reopens the question of Roscoe's custody agreement, going so far as to request a assignment from her firm that would keep her in town more then Marty is. Is her sudden interest in Roscoe an attempt to finally connect with the son who so desperately needs more stability then just his Grandfather and weekend Dad or is it spurred on by something else, like Marty's recent choices in relationships and his new found indifference to her overt sexual overtures.
