Character[]
Millie Kentner is 15-years-old. She's a steadfast Christian and abstains from drinking and smoking. She often comments on Lindsay's change of behavior, and fears the Freaks are leading her astray.
Despite this, Millie remains loyal to Lindsay. She respects Lindsay's decisions and is always willing to help her, although she laments that they are growing apart from each other.
Biography[]
In the "Pilot" episode, Millie is concern about Lindsay drifting herself away from her and the Mathletes, worrying not only Millie, but also Lindsay's family. She attempts to confess Lindsay to stay away from the Freaks, whom she view as troublemakers, and to maintain their close friendship with one another. However, Lindsay rejects Millie's concern for her, and the reason why she left the Mathletes is due to her depressive or skeptic thought, regarding her lost of faith in religion that was not able to bring back her dead grandmother and her deciding to be nonreligious as a result. In other words, Lindsay feels happier to be with a bunch of burnouts who enjoy life free without being told what to expect of her from authority. Being persuaded by Lindsay's words, Millie respects Lindsay's different direction, apart from hers.
In the "Looks and Books" episode, Millie permits Lindsay to rejoin the Mathletes after Lindsay's fight with her parents about Lindsay being pressured by the Freaks to steal and drive her parents' car, which ended up in a crash with another person's car. Millie is impressed that Lindsay reveals her competitive side by answering most or all math questions correct in the competition against prep school. In the end, when the Freaks arrive to applaud Lindsay for beating prep school in the competition, Lindsay reverts to her old self and she defects from the Mathletes again. Even though Lindsay choses to quit the Mathletes, Millie states that she is welcomed back at any time, making Lindsay glad that her former best friend still cares about her.
In the "Chokin' and Tokin'" episode, Lindsay smokes marijuana, which was provided by Nick Andopolis, for the first time. Moments later, her father reminds her that she had promised to babysit the neighbors' baby at night. Afraid to babysit by herself, she pleads Millie to babysit with her. Millie not only takes care of the child they are babysitting, but also takes care of Lindsay and her pet dog, Goliath, while she anxiously deals with the effects of smoking pot and she opens up more to Millie. Once Lindsay recovers enough to look after herself and the baby, Millie leaves Lindsay's house, as she doesn't need her anymore. However, Lindsay states that she and Millie will always be great friends no matter what, pleasing Millie.
In the "Dead Dogs and Gym Teachers" episode, Millie's dog is run over and her parents allow her space to grieve. She uses this new found freedom to be more rebellious, motivated by Kim Kelly. She plans to go to the Who with the Freaks, and after an argument with her mother, she almost starts drinking. Kim prevents this by confessing to murdering her dog with her car accidentally, while Lindsay was with her as her witness. After this, she becomes her former self.
Trivia[]
- In a deleted scene, Millie is shown to be a Freshman and in Sam Weir's class.
- She reveals to Lindsay that she has a boyfriend, but they have yet to French Kiss.
- She doesn't feel super angry or vengeful at all after finding out that Kim killed her dog, and she didn't call the authorities to arrest Kim and Lindsay.
