Supporting character.

Eastern-European accent.

Brow-beaten husband who is tricked into marrying a girl who got pregnant by another man. Genuinely kind with nothing to hide. He would die for a girl who ultimately abandons him with her child so that she can go live her own life. One of the few really kind people in the show.
