Reputation: Esmeralda Shoupe is known for only interacting with those with influential contacts. She craves nothing more than to fit in with the aristocracy as she was born a Pogue. Her main goal is to make sure her family is considered perfect by the eye of Figure Eight, and she does so by transforming her daughter into who she wishes she had been. She knows her expectations are unattainable, but she would rather Elizabeth fail while trying to reach for the impossible rather than settle for mediocrity. Everything she does is to make sure everybody forgets she was once a Pogue, and she isn't going to let Elizabeth undo all her hard work.

Reputation: As the Deputy Sheriff of Outer Banks, Victor Shoupe can't help but bring his controlling nature home with him, keeping a firm hold over his daughter's life. He wants to be accepted by the Figure Eight, but unlike his wife, he cares less about the aesthetics or privileges and more about the pride that comes from being the perfect household and him the perfect provider. Though he can be strict and stubborn when it comes to Elizabeth, she is still his greatest weakness. It pains him when she struggles to live up to Esme's high expectations, and he does all he can to alleviate some of the pressure while ensuring Elizabeth doesn't ruin the family name he worked hard for.
