There's Jill Tuck, Agent Lindsey Perez, Tracy and Brenda.

Jill and Agent Perez have an interrogation scene, in which while several parts are about John, Jill's husband, there ARE portions about her which guarantee the pass.

Pretty narrow 'del, but we have it like Rodrigo does - in the interrogation scene when Agent Lindsey Perez says "Actually, it's not John we want to talk about, Ms. Tuck. It's you." and then Jill Tuck says "Me? Why do you want to talk about me?" - the conversation which otherwise would have been about Jigsaw specifically becomes NOT about Jigsaw. It's narrow, but we liked the phrasing enough to ring the bell!

Also want to point out a Black'del (two named black characters talking about something that isn't a white person) when Tracey tries to get her husband Rigg to visit her mom with her.
