* TheWoobie: In this series it's a relative term, but Mona and Emma qualify.
** Mona knew Chicago politics would be rough, but not that rough. Her main goal is to improve Lennox Gardens, her community. For this she gets completely taken advantage of by Tom, has her privacy invaded, is the fall guy to Lennox Gardens residences, has her family threatened, and is forced to leave town.
** Emma is raised by two parents who put their political ambitions ahead of her. As a result she develops, then kicks, a drug habit and tries to redeem herself by running a clinic for the disadvantaged. Her mother doesn't even pretend like she cares about her and her father throws her under the bus to save his own ass.
