I could not stand her character played flawlessly by the lovely Dana Delaney. Remember the scene in the bedroom where she says to Newton that she can see how Gwen might sleep with her ex and he should be more understanding all while grabbing the tall bed post simulating sex. She didn't want Newton until Gwen came along. I could just slap her for that sinister smile toward the end at the dinner party when Gwen throws everything off the fireplace mantle and walks out.

Not so much slut as a grass-is-always-greener btch sort of person. She only wanted what she couldn't have. In the beginning she had Newton + gorgeous house offered on a platter and turned him down. He's married to Gwen and suddenly he's attractive to her. When the marriage goes south and Becky can have him, she hits the brakes again while snogging him in the fireplace. Then when Gwen walks out of the party and Becky asks Newton to confirm that none of it was real, she gets a totally smug look on her face - he is running after Gwen, but Becky is so sure that she can take him away from Gwen with a snap of her perfectly manicured fingers. It makes her comeuppance that much more delicious. Delaney played her perfectly, the character that Newton places on a pedestal and the audience ends up despising.

When Becky has the chance to sleep with Davis, she turns him down because he is married (she thinks). Gwen sleeps with Davis after a 15-minute walk around the block. Who's the slut?
