Gerard Keay

Gerard Keay, known as Gerry, is a character on the Magma Records.

Personality
Gerry displays an edgy and gloomy personality, bordering on incel mentality. He’s also known to hate women.

Description
His introduction to the show is inspired by Tara Gilesbie's My Immortal. The show ties his misogyny back to the troubled relationship with his mother, which frames his hatred for women as sympathetic and relatable to the audience.

History
Gerry was raised by his struggling single mother Mary after his father, Eric Delano, died in a car accident. Despite her attempts to understand her son, the two were never able to get along. The lack of a father figure in his life leads him to become as unpleasant as his mother.

It is only mentioned briefly, but Gerry used to date Julia Montauk before he became disillusioned with the world and stopped trying to fit in altogether, as he considers the normal too “mundane” and “naïve”.

Later in the show it is revealed that the reason he began hunting Leitners was to impress Julia, who apparently never had real feelings for Gerry.

Towards the end of his arc, there’s a touching scene where Gerry forgives Mary.

Michael Distortion
Gerard and Michael had an incredibly unhealthy relationship.
