Rose Trumble (Zulay Henao) is the villainess of "Crime Slut", episode 1.04 of The Unusuals (airdate April 22, 2009). As revealed by her mother Melanie, Rose's father was a convict who had been in and out of prison for most of her upbringing. After learning that her father was on the verge of potentially being sentenced to prison for life and that the only thing he wanted before he was sent away was to see his daughter get married, Rose resorted to villainous deeds to fulfill her father's wish.
Using her twisted gift for seducing men, Rose seduced convict Marvin Bechamel into helping her rob a pawn shop for jewelry, falsely claiming that they were going to get married. When she entered the store, the evil Rose punched Detective Allison Beaumont (who was at the store selling jewelry) to the ground before pulling out a shotgun, instructing Marvin to kill her if she moved. She then forced the shop owner to give her a pair of earrings and a necklace and additionally had Allison give her the watch she was wearing--which really belonged to Detective Jason Walsh, one of her partners and new lover, who had loaned it to her.
Marvin was later arrested and brought in for questioning, but he refused to give up Rose, saying that they were in love. But Marvin was proven wrong when it was discovered that Rose had seduced another convict (later identified as Wiley Probst) to rob a bridal shop, with Rose knocking out an employee before making off with a dress. After being told about Rose's treachery, Marvin revealed that Rose had been living in an abandoned building, where Jason and Detective Casey Shraeger found Wiley, with Detective Henry Cole and Allison arriving soon after. When Rose returned with groceries and saw the detectives, she pulled out her shotgun and fired at them before making her escape.
After learning from Rose's mother about her manipulative nature and desire to get married before her father was incarcerated, Casey and Jason tracked Rose down to the chapel where she was having her wedding to presumably another convict lover. When the detectives burst into the chapel, Rose briefly held the priest at gunpoint before attempting to flee once again. But before she could, the scheming villainess was tackled and knocked out by Allison, who was able to finally retrieve her watch. Rose was then arrested (offscreen).
