Brandi Shannon

Mary's younger sister, Brandi (Nichole Hiltz), is very much her mother's daughter and the baby of the family. She lives in the moment, never bothered to get an education and tends to fall for the worst possible men (like mother, like daughter).

Her last boyfriend,  a charming guy named Chuck, gave her a suitcase of crystal meth and put her on a train to Albuquerque. Brandi has also moved in with Mary and is more than happy to keep her mother company by the pool all day, until Mary lays down the law.

Brandi revels in her role of the bratty, selfish younger sister but being around her ambitious, hard-working older sibling may inspire Brandi to begin striving to be a better person—at least, think about it.
