## Profile

Randy is the best friend of Jeff Sadecki in high school and as an adult. We are first introduced to Randy when Jackie tells Shauna that he asked if she would be at the party they were attending the night before leaving for nationals. Shauna is clearly disgusted at the thought, and more so later when he drunkenly flirts with her at the party. According to both Shauna and Jackie, Randy is not very smart. Jackie states that she once saw him get outsmarted by escalator, while Shauna says that she once heard him ask who invented the Pope. Shauna also briefly says that Randy is the father of the baby she is pregnant with, not wanting to admit she was actually pregnant by Jackie's boyfriend, Jeff.

As an adult, Randy works as the manager of some sort of bar or club. He speaks with Jessica Roberts, a fixer who has been hired by Taissa Turner to check into whether anyone might be willing to reveal information about the Yellowjackets that could be damaging to her campaign for state senator. He tells her that he knew some of them quite well back when they were in high school. Shauna encounters Randy outside of the hotel where Natalie Scatorccio is living, as she prepares to meet her and Taissa there to discuss their being blackmailed. She asks if he's staying there and he admits that he is, telling her that he's currently going through one of his "little divorces" with his wife, Tammy and she kicked him out. He tells her that Tammy will come around, saying that it "might be cheaper to keep her." He then asks if she's staying there and she claims that she's simply parking there because of the parking situation for her book club at the nearby coffee shop. She asks him not to rat her out and he tells her that he's not a "narc," showing her that he got a Yellowjackets tattoo.

Later, Jeff admits to Shauna that Randy is the only person who knew about his scheme to blackmail some of the surviving Yellowjackets. Shauna confronts him at their high school reunion. She informs him that she is aware of his involvement. She tells him that she can't be mad at Jeff, so she's mad at him instead and tells him that she'll kill him if he tells anyone else about the blackmail scheme.

When Natalie goes missing from the hotel, Misty Quigley suspects her of having been abducted. She ends up partnering with a fellow citizen detective named Walter, who IDs Randy as staying at the hotel and cons him into believing him to be an FBI agent. Misty is horrified when she learns that the man that Walter IDed is Randy, knowing that their cover will be blown if he sees her. She therefore feeds Walter questions through a cell phone and earbuds. When Randy claims not to have seen Natalie the night she disappeared, Misty has Walter go "bad cop" on Randy, getting violent with him. He eventually gets out of him that he saw a group of people hanging around the hotel wearing purple, who drank up all of the Fanta from the soda machine. Walter then successfully makes an ID from the credit card they used.

Following this, Randy is again dragged into the messy affairs of the Yellowjackets thanks to Callie, Shauna's daughter. Callie discovers that she has revealed to an undercover cop that her mother was having an affair. Knowing that Shauna murdered the man she was having an affair with, Adam Martin, she decides to throw the cop, Matt Saracusa, off the trail by telling him that Shauna was actually having the affair with Randy.

When Callie reveals this to her, Shauna decides that it's a good idea, and certainly better than the cops believing that she was having an affair with Adam Martin. She and Jeff come up with a plan to try to fool the cops by making it look as if she is indeed having an affair with Randy. She goes to Randy's hotel and presents him with a condom. Randy is stunned, telling her that he still loves Tammy. She, however, tells him to take it and masturbate into it, no questions asked, as he still owes her after the whole blackmail thing. He goes to the bathroom and attempts to do so, but when he fails, he fills it up with strawberry lotion instead. After he and Shauna both leave the room, Matt Saracusa and Kevyn Tan, his senior partner, enter. Matt, suspecting that something is off, discovers the condom and the fact that it is filled with strawberry lotion. He realizes the nature of Shauna's plan, but Kevyn points out that he got made by Callie.
