* FallenPrincess: At some point in her youth, she got lost in a corner of the empire where she couldn't prove her identity, and had to live as a commoner for a some time. She describes herself as a "guttersnipe" in this period. She's embarrassed talking about the experience, but says she hopes it gives her some perspective the rest of the royal family lacks.

Galatea (or Golly, as Bob has nicknamed her) is a clone of Molly secretly grown by Jean's boss, Dean Martin (no, not ''[[DeanMartin that]]'' Dean Martin). During her one-month childhood, the dean treated her as a lab specimen, never showing any love or parental compassion, though he did allow her access to his library full of books by Nietzsche and Ayn Rand. When she finally escaped from him, she had become intensely paranoid and bitter, and believed herself and Molly to be ubermenschen destined to overthrow mankind. Thanks to Bob, Molly, and Jean, she has calmed down, and her megalomaniacal ambitions have abated somewhat. She has apparently become a successful burglar (Bob, Jean, and Molly are unaware of this), thus financing a ritzy life for herself in Paris (Molly knows she's been living in Paris, but has been too naive to ask how she's supporting herself). She has invented a holographic projector disguised as a hat, with which she can appear human, though she usually gets by without it through sheer audacity (most people are too polite or too startled to point out how weird she looks). She can be distinguished from Molly by the fact that Golly likes to wear ''clothes,'' while Molly is a happy furry nudist.

Jean is a biologist at Generictown University. She met Bob when they [[http://bobadventures.comicgenesis.com/d/20060826.html collided on the sidewalk.]] She was carrying her life's work, a genetic experiment in a test tube, and Bob was carrying a jar of peanut butter--the two combined to form Molly the Peanut Butter Monster. Bob asked Jean to coffee, and after a couple of dates they hit it off very well and began going steady. Jean is much better educated than Bob, and better able to grasp the implications of much of what goes on in his life (this is not necessarily an advantage, as it freaks her out a lot of the time). She is far more emotional than Bob, and when in a bad mood her fury has been known to frighten Sasquatches. She is currently raising Molly, and loves her deeply. She laments the state of her career, because her experiment was ruined (and she's reluctant to expose Molly to much scientific scrutiny).
