Loren Fitzpatrick was the vegetarian love interest for Daniel Potts (Ido Drent). After meeting at the cafe where Loren worked, the two started to date and Loren pressured Daniel to take up activism much to the annoyance of Daniel's mother Sarah (Amanda Billing).

Daniel pressured Loren into sex and she seemed reluctant and blamed much of her social angst on her father Reuben Fitzpatrick (David Aston). The two did eventually become sexually active and Loren fell pregnant after a condom mishap. Though at first wanting to keep the baby, Loren was talked around by Sarah and ended up having an abortion before she fled the country. Provided by Wikipedia
