[edit] Character History

After Sean secretly slept with the night nurse, Monica Wilder, he told her it wouldn't be appropriate if she worked for them now. Monica then called Julia, turning down the night nurse position for baby Conor. Julia then interviewed Marlowe Sawyer. Marlowe gave a touching speech, asking Julia to look into her son's eyes in the first moments of his birth. After giving birth to Conor, she then called Marlowe and hired him. Having a male nanny concerns Sean and Julia, but they eventually trust him. Marlowe has an affair with Julia. She eventually tells Sean. When confronted by Sean, Marlowe says they have an attraction that goes further than just friends. Marlowe thinks that it's best that he leaves, and does.

Marlowe has a strong friendship with Conor. He is hired as a nanny to him and bonds too. In the episode "Conor 2026", it is learned that Conor requested Marlowe to be his godfather and still talks to him.
