Robert (Robbie) Duncan - Robert is a good-looking, twenty-six-year-old gay man who struggles with drug use, particularly Ketamine, which he frequently uses to cope with stress and emotional pain. His drug use has become a "spiraling" problem, leading to sloppiness. He experiences moments of profound emotional distress, such as reliving a traumatic breakup with his fiancée, Eric, and being sexually assaulted and robbed at a club. Despite his vulnerabilities, Robert is fiercely loyal to Dee, viewing her as his "female soulmate" and "ride-or-die". He is instrumental in Dee's drug-dealing venture, coming up with the "Pez" disguise for pills and serving as her "professional" partner. He initially denies his attraction to Joey but later engages in sexual encounters with both Joey and Rex. Robert often uses humor and a seemingly carefree attitude as a "shield" or "armor" to get through difficult situations. He feels responsible for their current entanglement in the drug business, though he attempts to maintain an optimistic front. He is perceptive of others' emotions, often reading Dee's moods accurately. Robert desires to "fix things" for Dee and their future. He cares for his mother, Gillian, but their relationship is strained by his lifestyle choices and his involvement with Joey.
