Lee is a typical ghost who enjoys spending his time watching over his housemates like soap opera characters. Dogs can sense ghosts, and Lee treasures his unique bond with the family dogs. Lee had been living in his house on Abbot Street for eighteen years before the Simons moved in. The Simons are kind and mostly silent, and Lee enjoys watching them. However, when Suzzie, the Simon's daughter, grows up into a lovely young woman, Lee falls madly in love with her. Although he knows that they can never be together, Lee finds it hard to resist at least speaking with her. Lee is now a ghost with realism and is willing to take a gamble to win Suzzie's heart.
