The father of the Covey household, Daniel, AKA Dr Covey plays a guiding and goofy role in the franchise, as he happily lets Kitty go off to college, before questioning whether or not that’s the right descision.

Trina joined the cast in the second TATB movie, as the Covey’s neighbor and later Dr Covey’s girlfriend. She’s a very warm and caring figure, and seems to be rather the opposite of the evil stepmother trope.
