Rebecca Romero (Kevin Can Wait)

Rebecca Romero (Zulay Henao) is the main villainess from "Kevin Can Date," episode 2.14 of Kevin Can Wait (airdate January 22, 2018). She was introduced at the latest client for Kevin Gable and Vanessa Cellucci's company, Monkey Fist Security.
Rebecca appeared to Vanessa with plans to file a restraining order against her ex-boyfriend, Jim, and also showed off an expensive purse--stating she got it as a gift from her workplace, the Marquetti Handbag Company. Upon seeing Kevin, Rebecca is immediately taken by him, leading to Vanessa (along with Kevin's family and friends) urging him to go on a date with her. Kevin's original reluctance fades and he takes Rebecca out to an expensive restaurant, only for the pair to leave after Rebecca stated that she wanted just a simple date, with Kevin suggesting a nearby burger joint.
Meanwhile, at the workplace, Vanessa and Rutger summoned Jim as part of a sting, but it was there that Jim revealed the truth about the restraining order: he had the order against Rebecca. As Jim revealed, Rebecca is obsessed and psychotic, as four of her last five ex-boyfriends had restraining orders against her; according to Jim, Rebecca killed the fifth one by sending him falling over a cruise ship. She is also a thief; as she stole the handbag that Vanessa was impressed with, and she never worked for the company that sold them. Kevin saw hints of Rebecca's twisted demeanor when she subtly made plans for Thanksgiving with him, with the holiday being 10 months away.
The episode's climax had Kevin following the advice of his son-in-law, Chale, and taking her to the Danger Room, where people are locked in a room and they have to figure out how to escape. It was there that Vanessa (after multiple tries) finally called Kevin and revealed Rebecca's villainous past, and after overhearing, Rebecca snapped at Kevin and accused him of wanting to leave her. Both of them finally get out, with Kevin ending things with Rebecca. At the end of the episode, however, the evil Rebecca appeared at a bar and flirtatiously approached Kevin's brother, Kyle, setting her twisted sights on him.
