Sie war einfach da! Von den neun Leuten bei Blue Moon ist Agnes DiPesto die reimende Empfangsdame und Sekretärin. Sie ist die mit dem Telefon an ihrem Ohr, mit den dunklen fusseligen Haaren und mit einem Herz aus Gold. Agnes ist von italienischer Abstammung, kann aber nur ein wenig Italienisch sprechen. Sie lebte in Bakersfield, Kalifornien und kam ursprünglich nach Los Angeles, um Schauspielerin zu werden. Sie war bei Blue Moon angestellt, seit David Addison die Agentur 1982 eröffnete und scheint, die aller erste gewesen zu sein, die dort engagiert wurde. Auf dem erstem Blick ist es recht einfach, Agnes von den anderen Frauen des Personal zu unterscheiden. Während Ms Hayes und der Rest von den Frauen im Büro beschlossen, ihren Tag damit zu beginnen, Melanie Griffith´ s working women- Outfit zu imitieren, beschloss Agnes, die Hackenschuhe und die Schulterpolster zu Hause zu lassen und stattdessen knöchellange Kleider, Strickjacken und Rollis zu tragen. Aber ihr Aussehen ist nicht die einzige Sache, die sie von den anderen Frauen im Büro unterscheidet. Bei den Schreieinlagen von Maddie und Dave, dem Zuschlagen der Türen und des allgemeinen Chaos im Büro, behielt Agnes immer eine freundliche und wohltätige Natur bei, die sie zu einem guten Freund und unersetzlich für viele Leute im Büro machte. Es ist kein Fehler, zu sagen, dass sie " der Kleber ist, der alles zusammen hält ". Während ihres gesamten Aufenthaltes bei Blue Moon, behielt sie einen kühlen Kopf ,bei welcher Krise auch immer, und war sozusagen ein Stoßdämpfer für vielerlei Unfreundlichkeiten. Und sie ist nicht unvorbereitet. Unter ihrer gutmütigen Seite ist Agnes eine etwas aggressive Natur, die man nicht unterschätzen sollte. Als sie Burt auf einem Schreibtisch im Büro warf, war es nicht weil Burt schwach ist, sondern, weil Agnes tough ist. Aber alles in allem ist sie das Herz und die Seele von Blue Moon und tut ihr bestes, um das Büro und das Personal, bei der Stange zu halten. Familie Agnes scheint keine sehr große Familie zu haben. Sie ist ein Einzelkind mit einem Vater, der angeblich einige Jahre abgehauen sein soll. Ihre Mutter, Clara Dipesto, blieb in Bakersfield, Kalifornien, und sowohl sie und ihr Vater arbeiteten beide bei der Pacific Telephone Company. Das Verhältnis zwischen Agnes und ihrer Mutter ist sehr fest und liebevoll. Man könnte wohl sagen, dass ihre Mutter ihr ihr warmes Herz und ihr liebevolles Interesse für das Wohl der anderen mitgegeben hat. Verhältnisse zu den Anderen Herbert Viola: Kein Mensch, der so liebenswürdig ist wie Agnes, kann lange ungeliebt bleiben. Und hier kommt Herbert ins Spiel, unrasiert und maßgeschneidert für die Sekretärin. Herberts neurotische Natur ist ein gefundenes Fressen für Agnes, aber auch die Ähnlichkeiten zwischen den beiden sind nicht zu verachten. Sie sind ein einmaliges Pärchen. Anders als der Rest des Personals, haben Burt und Agnes haben die Angewohnheit " ihre Arbeit mit nach Haus zu nehmen ". Ihre Beziehung ist einfach unvermeidlich, auch, weil sie sich beide um David und Maddie kümmern, und so zusammenfinden. Maddie Hayes: Nun am Anfang störte sie die Anwesenheit von Maddie. Doch Agnes hatte nie sehr viel mit dem weiblichen Personal bei Blue Moon zu tun. Und zum Schluss hatte Agnes jemanden gefunden, mit dem sie sprechen und dem sie fast alles anvertrauen konnte. Sie fand in Maddie jemanden, dem sie sowohl Rat geben konnte, aber auch Rat bekommen konnte. Es war sogar so, dass Agnes das Verhältnis zwischen Dave und Maddie besser verstand, als jeder andere. Ihre Freundschaft war schwesterlich und war, ohne Zweifel, neu und erfrischend für beide. David Addison: Wie Burt hat Agnes etwas von einer nüchternen Anbetung für David. Wann immer sie ein ernstes Problem hat, geht sie zu ihm, um Rat einzuholen und schätzt seine Sinn für Humor. Aber auch, wie sonst keiner, läßt sie keinen Unsinn von ihm zu. MacGilicuddy: Wie mit vielen anderen vom Personal, hat Agnes mit MacGilicuddy für einige Jahre zusammengearbeitet und in ihm vor allem einen Freund gesehen. In der Tat scheint sie nicht zu bemerken, dass er sie ein wenig anziehend findet. Aber, selbst wenn sie es wüßte, würde sie es niemals zulassen, wegen ihrer Beziehung zu Burt und ihrer Freundschaft mit MacGilicuddy.
