Polly Gray

*"I shouldn't ask you people to do this. I don't even know you. But you know my brother. Probably more than I do, now. I need him. He's all I have, so I have to ask you to do this. Please. I don't have anything else to give."*
― Polly begging the members of the book club to save Lee.[src]
**Polly Gray** was a secondary character in Season 1 of The Many Monsters of New London. She is the sister of Lee Gray and worked as a waitress to support them both. When Lee was turned into a vampire, the two's relationship slowly broke down and she began to suspect the truth.

## History

Four years prior to the story, Polly and her brother, Lee, abandoned their mother and moved to a small flat in Camden. From there, she began working as a waitress.

## Appearances

Season 1
"Pilot"
Polly wakes her brother up after a night out, berating him for almost being late. She later serves him at the pub where he receives another call to go out. She then warns him to be careful.

"We Tell Ourselves"
When Lee gets home after being turned, she asks him if he had a good time, to which he says yes before he leaves once more after seeing Isiah and Jill in the street. Later, she looks out of the window for him, worried.

"Life Sucks"
After Lee finally arrives back at the flat, she demands to know where he was, almost breaking into tears as she does so. She wearily accepts his excuse before she goes to work. When she returns, she suggests going out of the city for a few days, to which Lee agrees.

"Deliver Us"
Lee and Polly go camping somewhere outside of the city. There, they appear to be having a good time until Polly reveals that she has been in contact with their mother, stating that she'd hope that talking to her would help him. This enrages Lee and later that night, he catches her scent and is tempted to feed on her.

"Cold Bite of Frost"
Still somewhat mad about Polly being in contact with their mother, he answers her questions about the party he is attending very curtly. This is the last straw for her, and she finally confronts him about his behaviour lately. She begs him to tell her what's going on, but he refuses and leaves. She watches him go from the window, messaging Kara. When she asks for Polly's address, she thinks about it for a moment and her decision is not shown.

"Bloody Situation"
Isiah tries to bring Polly to her brother. On the way, he asks her about their family history in an attempt to figure out how the man who turned Lee was connected to him. Unable to discover anything, the two continue on to the library.

"Vampire: Part One"
Polly and Isiah reach Paperback too late, finding that Lee has been kidnapped by the Blood-born. She is then finally told that he was turned into a vampire by Jill. Later, she begs for the book club's help in bringing her brother back and all but Strepp agree to do so.

"Vampire: Part Two"
While the others try to rescue Lee, Polly is kidnapped and brought to The Widowmaker, who uses her to try and expose what he really is. Lee begs him not to hurt her, but when he cannot escape his chains, he kills Polly, cutting open her throat in front of her brother.

## Personality

Polly is extremely caring, especially towards her brother. She was even willing to abandon their mother for Lee and works while he attends university. Though their relationship becomes strained as he copes with being a vampire, Polly still looks out for her brother and tries to mend their relationship.

## Relationships

### Lee Gray

Despite their differences, Lee cares for his sister a lot, choosing to stay and risk his own life rather than go to a TVC and never see her again. Though their relationship has become strained since he has been turned, Lee still loves Polly enough to choose to stay in New London. When Polly is killed, her death becomes the impetus for his breaking out and brutal murder of The Widowmaker. He is mentally distraught and scarred by her death.

### Kara Gray

Polly and Kara had a falling out some years prior due to her treatment of them both. As a result, a distaste grew in Polly and she and Lee abandoned Kara, moving to New London for a fresh start. Over time, however, she has been in contact with her again and appears to find comfort in her as Lee grows farther away due to his new, secret life.
