problems and a lot to prove, loud and combative as a defensive posture, the fat kid who becomes a bully to avoid being picked

his remarkable technique, spelling words out on the floor with his foot, the journey he doesn't expect is one of coming to care
about someone else; Marcy Park: Asian-American, speller, the ultimate over-achiever; has never been given another option,

particular passion, the drive of the young spellers is alien to him, endlessly awaiting a promotion that isn't coming, was not
happy to get the call this morning that he was needed to substitute, but starts the bee eager to do well, to redeem himself for
past mistakes and to impress the local hostess Rona Lisa, who impressed him long ago; “Mitch Mahoney:” adult, has a bouncer's
physique and demeanor, appears an odd choice to be the bee's "comfort counselor," but it's part of his community service
assignment, wonders about the wisdom of putting the kids through this at all, has no idea how to offer comfort, but does
increasingly find himself wishing he could find a way to make the kids feel better about losing, actor also plays Dan Schwartz,
Logainne's other father, slightly less insane than Carl, but still intent on his daughter winning the bee, also plays Olive's Dad,
