Tripgood is a rock-solid bachelor guy whose favorite hobby is traveling, but his frequent vacation trips usually end in disaster. He strives constantly to gain the affections of Shoedrop and though unsuccessful, he never gives up trying.

The Boss’s Son is a regular visitor to the office, where he often experiments with new hi-tech gadgets and interferes with the company’s computer system. His mere presence highlights the generation gap and leads to inevitable confrontations with Neatstep.

The Company is a fictional private organization, which provides a multitude of utility and security services to the city.
