Dr. Ruby "Red" Scarlet

A bisexual red (hence the name) vixen with black hair and ears. Spends most of her time practicing. A tomboy who knows more about football than Richard.
Red shares a bitter past with Richard and Crystal, rooming with the two in college initially against Red's wishes. She comes around to the idea of Richard being a good guy when she sees how tidy he is, and how he voluntarily does chores. At first, Red flirts with him because she's merely curious about what he's like in bed, but then she starts to lose respect for Crystal as a result. After Crystal proposes a threesome to keep everyone happy, the end result is none of them are happy. Red ends up leaving in a huff and going back to her parents.
Red ends up treating Nathan when he is admitted to the hospital for a cracked rib and concussion. When she leaves him alone so Kevin can visit, she runs into the Governor and the Brain, who restrains her from leaving (although he does offer her earplugs to deal with the Governor's shouting). When the Governor returns, he demands to know if Red is the only one who has seen Nathan awake. She initially objects as it is against her rights, but the Governor threatens her if she doesn't comply. As an additional disincentive, the Brain offers some trumped-up charges to slap her with in order to freeze her assets.
Red realises they mean business when her schedule clears up, and her mind starts to wander as to what curious spy shenanigans could be behind all of this. Just as she dismisses the idea as silly, when she returns to Nathan's room, he holds up a clipboard with the words "SAY NOTHING! GET RID OF THE CHICKEN!" written on it. After she throws the chicken toy out the window, he informs her that it was probably bugged and asks for his glasses. As he scans the room, he finds another bug and suggests that Red's wallet may have gone missing. Red smashes the bug and flushes it, then asks why all the subterfuge, but Nathan doesn't want to expose her to potential danger.
While Nathan is due to be released the next day, Heart and Gates take out the Brain as he guards the door, and Heart introduces himself to Nathan, asking him to work for Mr. Reed. After Nathan agrees, Heart leaves him to his own devices, and Red offers to give Nathan a ride to a place where he can lie low, with a detour to get new clothes (and a peep show). They arrive at Richard's house, only for Nathan to nearly hurt himself again at the sight of Richard. Nathan asks about a place to stay, and Richard quickly agrees to find him a spot, but Nathan gets the feeling Richard doesn't like him. Red finally admits the awkwardness is more Red's fault than Nathan's, but she defends herself by saying he was the only one she could think of who would be able to help. She makes it up to him by giving him her number, which he insists is a bad idea (although he's bad at saying no).
To avoid the drama between Richard and Kingston, Red takes Nathan to get a hotel room and say goodbye, but she can't stay away. Nathan has regrets about giving in, but Red will have none of that. She ends up staying with him overnight, and before she can leave, Nathan insists on going over her cover story, including being too much of a hassle to monitor. They part (for real) on good terms.
