Actor: Sheena May

Tropes:

• City Mouse: When sent to live on a farm for a week, Bobby is completely discombobulated by the lack of technology or places to recharge her electronic devices.
• Gadgeteer Genius: Builds her own technological gadgets.
• Nerd Action Hero: Don't let the fact that's she a computer geek fool you, she can and will use her martial arts training to fight back!
• Oblivious to Love: When Juliette tells Bobby the only way she could get Kurt to play Prince Charming was to volunteer her to play Cinderella, she genuinely does not understand why this would be a motivation. The expression on her friends' faces◊ says it all.

• Teen Genius: Adept at reprogramming, hacking and knowledgable about technology of all kinds.

Tropes:

• Contortionist: She can compress herself into small spaces and bend in ways most people cannot do comfortably. Or at all.

Juliette (Blueberry)

Actor: Harriet Kershaw

Tropes:

• Crazy-Prepared: Works hard to master every possible skill she can, in case one of those is required for a mission. For example, when she goes undercover as a musician, she mentions she can play nineteen different instruments, but ironically, never learned the one she was chosen to play.....
• Domino Mask: She wears one as part of her spy uniform. There seems to be no justified reason to do so, since her teammates don't bother concealing their faces at all.
• Fluffy Tamer: She's very good with befriending wild animals and getting their help. She even managed to make friends with a cantankerous bull that nobody else could tame.
• It's All About Me: A downplayed and subverted trope, but she's very definitely not hesitant about modest bragging.
• Living Lie Detector: Juliette is very adept at reading the biological signals that indicate deception or nervousness, if the truth is not being told, she will know.
• Master Actor: Her skillset involves taking on any personality and identity she can imagine or is chosen to portray.
• Stock Ninja Weaponry: Her signature weapons are a pair of shuriken disguised as leg or ankle bracelets.
• Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Juliette has a deep fear of rats. She gets over it very quickly when required to work with a friendly rat on a mission. By the end of the episode, she's grown very fond of her new animal friend.

Villains
