Phil Smith (Will Smith)

Phil Smith (Will Smith)

Researcher for Peter Mannion
Peter Mannion is Phil's hero, and working for him as researcher has been the biggest thrill of Phil's life. Obviously bigger intellectual and political thrills are to come, but Phil's concentrating on making Peter look the best he possibly can. Slightly resents Emma's success and can't stand her new boyfriend.
