Michelle Tate: Role of Mercy Lewis

Actor Michelle Tate says that she was surprised to get the part of Mercy Lewis since Mercy is described as a big, fat girl whereas Michelle is rather small. Mercy is Abigail’s sidekick: she is naughty and bullies the other girls, but is always trying to impress Abigail, possibly because she knows she is less attractive.
