Randall Edgeware
Randall Edgeware is one of 804 characters who have appeared in fewer than six episodes. Not much information may be available about him or her. |
Description
His first name was Bobby but he decided to go by his middle name, Randall, when going through a time of change. When he was young, Randall attended Whit’s Sunday school class. When Whit went to the hospital, Whit reconnected with his pupil who he realized was Rhonda Adelaide's brother. He and Whit would talk and play Scrabble together during Randall's final days, even though he was a horrible Scrabble player. He regretted many of his choices and made mistakes but ultimately accepted Jesus into his heart before his death. Shortly before his death, Randall asked his sister to make amends with Whit before his final words, "You're standing on my air hose."
While unspecified in the show, it can be inferred that his illness and cause of death may have been HIV / AIDS.
Family
His sister is Rhonda Adelaide.
Notes
Randall's character is similar to that of Duncan Mathis in the Novacom Saga. Both characters were the sick or disabled brother of a female antagonist who serves as a key motivation for the antagonist's actions. Both characters are visited by a Whittaker close to the end of the saga, and the association serves to humanize the antagonist and helps lead the antagonist into a more sympathetic posture.
