Character Profile: Victor Koblinsky
Victor Koblinsky (Callum Keith Rennie) is an unpredictably volcanic well of anger and frustration. Disenchanted with his white collar lifestyle, and his unhappy marriage and relationship with his teen-aged son, Victor is redefining the meaning of a "mid-life crisis". Following an outburst ignited by a domestic dispute, Victor is sentenced to group therapy as a condition of his probation. Victor's intelligence and keen intellect assist him in rallying his fellow group patients in thwarting Joel's attempts at therapy and trying to convince their doctor that their shared hallucinations are, in fact, real.
