Your Character
You are Pat's soon-to-be ex-spouse. Because you caught him/her cheating on you and decided to divorce him/her, Pat had seen multiple attorneys about the divorce case, preventing you from using those attorneys in a conflict of interest, exercising attorney-client privilege. When you were married to Pat, he/she did not want you working, telling you that you couldn't handle a real job and should let him/her take care of it. Later, you also admit to Malorie that you haven't had a friend of your own - one that was not a mutual friend of Pat's - since before the wedding.

As you tell Attorney, Pat never let you take charge of anything in your marriage. Although he/she claims that you were "hostile to the idea of parenthood" in the divorce papers, you say it was Pat's idea to delay having children. Pat said he/she wasn't ready, that he/she was too busy with work, or that he/she wanted a bigger home first.

In Chapter 7, Attorney tells you that Pat is also suing you for alimony. In Chapter 12, when Pat meets Attorney for what was supposed to be a preliminary settlement meeting, Pat tells Attorney that you are and have always been a liar, and a timid, conniving little mouse. Whether Pat believes this or whether Pat is only insulting you to goad Attorney is unclear.

Trishana
Trishana is Pat's current domme. If you decide to confront her in Chapter 3, Trishana tells you that she did not ask Pat if he/she was married since it isn't her job to ask. However, Trishana feels Pat is the cheating type and was not surprised to find out that he/she was married. She is not Pat's first domme, as their relationship has only spanned the last few months, and knows that Pat has been "well trained" by other dommes in the past. In Chapter 4, she tells Attorney that she will not go on record for anything and refuses to provide direct testimony or a depostion about her relationship with Pat. However, when Attorney offers her a future favor in return, Trishana agrees to help.
