Clare Quayle, is a central character on the Starz Original Series Counterpart. She is a deep cover sleeper agent for Dimension Two and a key player in the D2 black ops program known as Indigo.
Clare is portrayed by Iranian-born actor Nazanin Boniadi.
Clare Dimension One
Clare Fancher was the daughter of the Office of Interchange's Diplomacy Director Roland Fancher.
She was engaged to marry OI Deputy Director for Strategy Peter Quayle. In 2013, Clare was killed by her Dimension Two counterpart. Her body was dumped with her teeth and fingers removed to avoid easy identification.
Clare Dimension Two
After the death of her parents due to The Flu, Clare was forced into the Indigo Program school in 1997.
She was taught that Dimension One was the source of the weaponized disease that almost decimated her world and killed her parents. She and her fellow students were encouraged to hate D1 and were trained to replace their counterparts there as part of a long-term plan to seek revenge for The Flu.
She was shaped in her counterpart's image in every way, including having her legs purposely broken while conscious in order to mimic an accident D1 Clare suffered in the late 1990s.
In 2013, D2 Clare came through The Crossing and spied on her counterpart for some time before killing her and taking her place. She's been using her access to her husband's private safe and work documents to advance the Indigo plan.
She is currently facilitating the replacement of three new sleeper agents by using a hired assassin (Baldwin) to kill their D1 counterparts.
Clare recently gave birth to a girl and claims this has changed her belief in what she is doing.
