Dick Casablancas

To paraphrase some guy named Shakespeare: What's in a name? That which we call a Dick by any other name would still be a dick. H. Richard Casablancas, Jr. is your typical, obnoxious 09er, who lacks morals, a conscience or any form of decency. Coming from a wealthy, though rather dubious and neglectful family, he is a constant bad influence in Logan Echolls's life and used to have a more or less willing accomplice for his skeevier expeditions in his younger brother Beaver. He is, without a doubt, the bastard son of Satan.

Despite his sleaze, he seems to have some luck with the ladies, occasionally causing cat fights between the mean and the ditzy, but even bribes couldn't yet persuade his young, sexy stepmother to share his bed. Well, even a gold digger of humble background has to have some standards.

Things aren't looking too good at the moment for Dick: His dad has fled the country after his real-estate scam was mysteriously uncovered, ex-girlfriend Madison is now into older men, the non-09er girl who let him "ride bareback" died in the bus crash, he can't get a date for the prom, and little Beaver is acting out after his brother humiliates him in front of his date. Even Logan, his fellow "high-plains drifter, life taker, and heart breaker" has found other partners-in-crime and hearts he doesn't really want to break.

Will the tides turn for Dick? Will he ever find a better hairstyle? Will he be more observant in future when approached by mysterious strangers? And most importantly: why does the name "Sally" scare him so much?
