Panco
A highly unethical real estate firm where Wayne Malloy bluffs his way into a job as legal counsel.
| Name | Portrayed by | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Hugh Panetta | Gregg Henry | A wealthy real-estate mogul with a penchant for guns and alcohol, Hugh started off "piss-broke" but built the Panco empire starting with buying and reselling used septic systems. Wayne meets Hugh while golfing with Jim Burns, making a wager over the golf game and losing to Wayne. Wayne wins a job-offer from a law-firm, but after Hugh tells Wayne he will have supervisors breathing down his neck at a law firm, Hugh convinces Wayne to work as inhouse-counsel for Panco instead. Hugh has been married multiple times, most recently to a stripper, GiGi, from Las Vegas during Season 2. A recovered drug addict, Hugh is inveigled to relapse by Dahlia's fellow ex-con Chunky Kay. Wayne's constant work to keep Hugh and Panco afloat and ingratiate himself into a position as a Panco partner lead Hugh to consider Wayne, or as he thinks, Doug, as his closest and only real friend. Towards the end of Season 2, Hugh decides to run for Mayor of Ducaine. |
| Aubrey | Deidrie Henry | A paralegal at Panco who attends law school on nights, Wayne uses Aubrey heavily to work the legal aspect of cases for him, instrumental to the success of his con. She repeatedly saves Wayne from being revealed as a fraud, and quickly catches on that he is not actually a lawyer, but chooses not to investigate the extent of Wayne's fraud any further due to her great respect for Wayne's human sympathies, which she sees as otherwise lacking at Panco. |
| Kimmie | Teresa Huang | An easily excited, eager Panco employee. Kimmie is extremely polite and cheerful to everyone at Panco and appreciates Doug a lot. |
| Tony | Michael Gambino | An employee of Panco. While undertaking a lie detector test, it's apparently revealed that Tony isn't his real name. In Episode 11, he requests from Wayne that he be allowed his own parking space with his name written on it. |
| Greg | Yvans Jourdain | An employee of Panco, who requests from Wayne that he be allowed his own office. |
| Georgia "GiGi" Panetta | Julie Ann Emery | An exotic dancer from Vegas who Hugh fell in love with and married, GiGi is reluctant to sign a post-nuptial agreement with Hugh, though she denies she is a gold digger. Dahlia convinces GiGi to sign the postnuptial agreement by telling her to include clauses such as heavy penalties if Hugh is unfaithful – and that they will not engage in certain sexual positions. The couple are fairly unstable, with GiGi kicking Hugh out of the house for weeks shortly after their marriage, getting back together just in time for Hugh's political campaign for Mayor of Ducaine, for which Wayne tries hard to cover up her stripper past. |
