Sam Pinkett, Phil Bourne and other characters
Sam Pinkett and Phil Bourne appear to be best friends. When people put Phil down about nobody wanting to go to his party, Sam volenteers. During the first episode, at work, it's infered that Sam isn't close to his workers and now even farther from his former girlfriend who also works at The Berkshire Country Council. Phil works in the mailing room while Sam works in a cubical. Unlike Sam,  Phil is much more lax back and excited for adventure, whereas Sam is worried about work and doesn't really want to get involved in adventure. When Sam dumps Phil for being accounted for Lizzie's kidnapping, he comes out and ends their relationship. However, Sam does take the bullet of a crazed shooter, for Phil,  when Phil comes to Sam's rescue.
