Pistols in Parallel: Paul Prentiss and Her Sister Ann

Paula Prentiss (b. 1938) is often Paired with Popular People (the latter of the day is P, apparently). Chief among them, of course actor Richard Benjamin, to whom she has been married for over 40 years (and about whom we have written several posts already, on Benjamin himself, on his vaudeville uncle, on the tv show Quark, and on the Benjamin-Prentiss sitcom He and She).

An independent Courier would actually hate being in charge or enforcing standards in New Vegas. At least in my mind.

They made Vegas independent but I feel like that playthrough/style so clearly makes it apparent it isn't for them. They are making Vegas a place where people can live freely, like how House genuinely didn't care what people did but without the behind-the-scenes Big Brother surveillance he did. Having every family, faction, and other influence group or person comes to them about alliances or rules would be draining, and boring, one note.

In an independent Vegas, The Courier is also Independent. They like getting rid of lines and borders that impede freedom, they like to help give people the tool but I don't believe they want to be the one to shape it.
