Character Relationships in Groupers

Meg (played by Nicole Dambro) is a protagonist in Groupers. Meg is the experimenter who abducts Brad and Dylan after overpowering them with tear gas and a taser. She transports them to a secluded location, humiliates and manipulates them, and demands that they complete a sexual task to test her belief that homosexuality is a choice. She is Orin's sister and involves him in the operation. Brad (played by Peter Mayer-Klepchick) is a protagonist in Groupers. Brad is one of the two men abducted by Meg and is strongly resistant to her experiment. He angrily denies that he is gay, insists that he is attracted to women, and becomes furious when Meg's coercive tactics leave him humiliated and soaked. Along with Dylan, he later explains the kidnapping and fears that Meg may kill them. Dylan (played by Cameron Duckett) appears in Groupers. Dylan is one of Meg's captives and the other participant in her forced experiment. Meg claims that he has always been gay and pressures him to become attracted to Brad, while withholding water and allowing him to urinate through a hole in his clothing. Dylan later tells Hank and Frank that Meg kidnapped them and fears the experiment will end violently. Orin (played by Jesse Pudles) appears in Groupers. Orin is Meg's brother and is connected to the abduction and experimental operation. He appears to assist Meg despite arguing with her about whether he should participate. Later, he is present when Hank and Frank discover the captives and question him about Meg's whereabouts, placing him between the experiment and the increasingly alarmed outsiders. Frank (played by Max Reed III) appears in Groupers. Frank is one of the men who discovers the bizarre situation involving Brad and Dylan. He initially reacts with ridicule and disbelief when they describe Meg's kidnapping and sexual experiment, but becomes alarmed after finding them at the bottom of a pool. He later questions Orin about Meg while the confrontation grows more dangerous. Hank (played by Travis Stanberry) appears in Groupers. Hank helps discover Brad and Dylan during the escalating aftermath of Meg's experiment. Along with Frank, he first treats the captives' account with jokes and disbelief, then becomes alarmed when they are found at the bottom of a pool.
