Characters


Emma Becker- Emma is Sutton’s twin. She lived in Las Vegas, Nevada with a foster mom and her foster brother. But she does not get along with them at all! Emma has lived in 12 foster homes over her entire life. Emma is really sweet and down to earth. She would do anything to just live a normal life. When Emma finds out that she has a twin sister she runs away from home to go and meet her. Ethan and Thayer are the only ones that know about her and the switch. Emma is my favorite character because she really cares about others and is sweet. Sutton is always seeming to hurt Emma but because Sutton is the only family she has she forgives her every time. I always feel bad for Emma when Sutton hurts her because she really just wants a sister and doesn't deserve what Sutton does. I do hope that Sutton will realize that Emma has always been there for her and she needs to stop treating Emma badly. 
Sutton Mercer- Sutton is Emma’s twin. She lives in Phoenix with her adopted parents (Ted and Kristin) and her sister.  She gets whatever she wants and more. Sutton doesn’t get along with her family. She is really mean, lies and manipulates to get her way. Sutton has a boyfriend, a secret boyfriend and uses her best friends brother Thayer. When Sutton finds her twin sister she decides to switch places with her so she can go find their mother. She was almost killed in a car accident, when her car was driven into the water. She was saved by Annie Hobbs who she believes to be her mother but finds out that she is not. Sutton is Jealous of her twin sister Emma because her family and friends like Emma better. Even though they dont know that they switched they all believe they like the knew Sutton. This angers Sutton, so she tries and makes Emma seem like the bad one.
Ted Mercer- Ted is married to Kristin and  is Sutton’s adopted father and Laurel’s real dad.  He is best friends with Alec Rybak and is a doctor at a hospital. Ted is a very honest and respected man. He loves his family more then anything but is hiding something from them. Ted and Alec have a big secret that no one but each other knows. He and Alec are always acting very secretive. I think it has something to do with Sutton and Emma and their adoption. I think that Ted might be Emma and Suttons real father. Ted killed Justin’s mom by accident in surgery but wont forgive himself. Once he finds out that his daughters boyfriend is the women he accidentally killed, some secrets start to come out, which starts to scare him and Alec.
Alec Rybak- Alec is Thayer and Mads father and Sutton’s godfather. He has been best friends with Ted Mercer since they were in school. He is an attorney but uses his job to keep his secret a secret. This secret and job has been put before his children, making their relationship not very good. Alec has helped many people get out of jail but they have a price to pay for it. I think the price is to help keep Alec’s secret a secret. Making them do jobs for him so he can't get in trouble for it. Alec's secret is affecting so maybe peoples life in all kinds of different ways. 

Thayer Rybak-Thayer is the son of Alec and brother to Mads. He has always liked Sutton but she doesn't feel the same way. She often uses Thayer, which ends up hurting him and ruining their friendship. Thayer helped Sutton when she went to California looking for her mom. Thayer was living in California because he does not get along with his father. Thayer gets tired of Sutton always using him! I think that in the end Sutton is going to lose a lot of her friends if she keeps using people. Thayer is a good guy and would do anything for Sutton but I don't think he is always going to be there for her. 
Ethan Whitehorse- Ethan was Sutton’s secret boyfriend. He has a bad reputation and doesn’t have any friends. He lives with his brother in a trailer. When Emma got to Phoenix he figures out that she is not really Sutton. He is the only person that knows that they switched places. Ethan decides not to tell anyone about the Emma’s secret and decides to teach her who her sister really is. After a little while Emma and Ethan start liking each other, which makes Sutton really mad. Ethan has had a rough life but really cares about Emma. I feel bad for people like Ethan because he is a good guy but people automatically judge him. People just assume things about Ethan but they don't know the real person. Ethan right now is being accused of the murder of Derek Rogers. I hope that they will find the real killer and that Ethan doesn't have to go to jail for something he did not do.  I do hope that he won't let Sutton get to him and won't believe the lies he tells her.  
Derek Rogers- Derek is on probation and has been sent to jail many times. Alec decided to help him by getting him out of jail but he has to pay a price for it. He had to date Char so he could find out things from the girls. Alec had suspensions that Sutton wasn’t really Sutton. Derek was really good to Char and I think he could be a good person but he always is seeming to get himself into trouble. Derek ends up dying because I think he was telling Sutton to much information. Even though Derek is not the best person in the world he does not deserve to die. Derek probably died because of Alec and Ted's secret. Derek is just another innocent victim in this secret.
Justin Miller- Justin is Laurel Mercer's boyfriend. Justin just moved here because he wanted to go to the school here to play golf. We ended up finding out in this and last season that Justin is in foster care because both his parents died. Justin's mom died because Mr. Mercer let someone finish up a surgery which ended up killing her. I think that all Mr. Mercer owes Justin is an apology and to make sure he is okay. Mr. Mercer got a phone call during the surgery. I think that the phone call was again something to do with the secret that Ted and Alec have. Justin mom should not have died and it is not fair that Justin had to lose his mom when Mr. Mercer could just have taken his time and finished the surgery before he had to take the phone call.
Ann Rebecca Sewell- Ms. Sewell now goes by Rebecca, now that she is back. She moved away to California and decided to come back and put the past behind her. Her and Alec are now starting to date. Alec thinks that if he dates her he can keep an eye on her. I think she knows the secret that Ted and Alec knows and I think she could possible be the mother of Sutton and Emma but did not want to keep them or was forced to give them up. I also think that she is pretending that she is going to be good and not give away Ted and Alec’s secret but I think she has a plan to let the secret out. I also think her sister (Char’s mom) Phyllis knows the secret too and that is the reason why she is drinking so much. I think this secret has effected Rebecca more then we know. Since we don't know what she knows or why she left we don't know yet how much this has affected her but I think we will be finding out soon. 
Annie Hobbs- Annie was believed to be Sutton and Emma’s mom but in the second season we find out that she is not the mother. Annie’s daughter died and she over heard someone giving up twins so she tried to get both but she could only get Emma. She said that she didn’t see who their mom was, she only overheard her. I think she is lying, that she actually did because Alec is keeping her in a psych ward and after she told the girls that, Rebecca comes in and says “Oh Annie, what have you done now?” I think that Annie also knows the secret but is being forced to keep her mouth shut. In season one there was pictures of Annie, Alec and Ted in an old photo album of Teds. Therefore I think Annie was part and does know about the secret but is being forced or is scared to tell the girls. I don't think we will be seeing much more of Annie for a while until more comes out. I hope that Annie is not being locked up in a psych ward just because of this secret, that it is actually because the death of her daughter because no one deserves to be locked up for no reason.
