Gloria Long is the wife of Malcolm Long, the psychologist of Walter Kovacs. After being frequently neglected by Malcolm, their marriage eventually deteriorates. On November 2, she waited for him near Bernard's stand to meet him on his way from work, not feeling ready to meet him back at the apartment yet. She said she missed Malcolm but could not live with someone who works with criminals and manics and lets their misery affect his personal life. She asked him to ask for a transfer to different work.
