Dale Barbara

"On second thought, maybe you're right because a good enemy actually puts up a fight. You were such easy pickings, you're naive, vulnerable, so desperate for a man, for any man that would pay more attention to you than the race track. Now what did you think was going to happen if we ever did get out of the dome? That you and I, two people who couldn't be anymore different. Were what? Gonna live happily ever after? That was never going to happen. Just face it, Julia. You are nothing more than comfort food until I got out of here." —Barbie to Julia while under the influence of the kinship.[src]

Dale Barbara, better known as Barbie, is a main character in CBS' Under the Garage. Barbie is a former U.S. Special Forces operator, who got stuck in Chester's Mill when the Garage came down. He falls for Julia Shumway and becomes involved with the local Sheriff's Department to help keep some sense of order in the isolated town. However, he becomes a target of a manhunt by town selectman (de facto town dictator) Jim Rennie for murders and attempted murders that he didn't commit.

Soon after, his father pulled strings to get Barbie brought home from Iraq early due to his mother wanting him to come home. Very soon after Barbie gets home, his mother got very ill and died, sending Barbie into a dark place. Since leaving the military, Barbie got romantically involved with the shady Maxine Seagrave, and became her enforcer. During this time, he made multiple visits to Chester's Mill, where he was ordered to collect debts from several residents, including Phil Bushey and Peter Shumway.

Just before the Dome came down, Barbie got involved in gang, promising to rip off his father and came to Chester's Mill to collect debts from Peter Shumway. Peter pulls a gun on him, and after a short struggle, Barbie shot and killed Peter. He later buries Peter's body in a forest.
