My Viking Baby and His Chieftain Daddy
31 Episodes
Barry Grayson is the landlord of Nora's rundown apartment building — a shrewd, small-time opportunist in his early 50s. He's built his life on collecting rents and exploiting tenants who have nowhere else to go. A red-faced man with a drinker's nose, a cheap suit, and a gold watch that's seen better days, he carries himself with a lazy arrogance that comes from years of holding power over people who can't fight back. He's not a criminal — just a bully with a set of keys and a deadline. He speaks with the impatient drawl of someone who's never had to wait for anything in his life. In his world, money talks, kindness is weakness, and a lease is just a piece of paper until the rent clears. He doesn't hate Nora. He just doesn't care.
