Portrayed By

Kristen Johnston

Sally Solomon is the Sister of Dick and Harry Solomon and the Aunt of Tommy Solomon. She is the Lieutenant, Security Officer, and second in command on the mission.

Arrival and life on Earth

Sally's assignment is to find out what the life of a woman on Earth is like. In the episode Brains and Eggs it turns out Sally, a highly trained, decorated, combined combat specialist/military tactician, lost some sort of contest and therefore was made to be the woman. She sent in a complaint, and later switched bodies with Dick's. But she decided that she liked being the woman, and got to stay that way.

Instead of fighting and protecting like she is trained for, she is shopping, cooking, etc. Sally has a lot of self discipline, and does what she needs to do. Even though she is very "macho" she later on gets a little more ditzy and lazy. She for some reason doesn't like Mary Albright, who she simply calls 'Albright'.

She mainly stays at home with her Harry and hanging out with her boyfriend Don Orville. She sometimes senses danger and goes into further investigation, but usually there is no threat. She believes she is the strongest in Rutherford, until someone else, Janice comes into the police force and is stronger.

Relationships

Sally has a flirtatious nature and most of the men she meets fall for her. She has the ability to make men do pretty much what she wants. Sally uses this to her advantage.

Mr. Kevin Randall

Early on in the series Sally starts to date Harry's teacher Mr. Kevin Randall, who Sally refers to as Mr. Randall because she thinks this is what sophisticated people do.

However, the relationship doesn't last as Mr. Randall finds her too dominating and overpowering, when sally tries to become more subordinate and quite, she manages to anger Mr. Randall further as he believes her to be being manipulative. He breaks up with her over lunch. After talking it through with the family she tries to make a mends by attempting to sleep with him, however this does not work and thus the relationship ends.

Don Orville

After Sally receives a parking ticket she goes to the police station thinking she has won $150, when the officer tells her she hasn't she starts shouting and officer Don comes out. Instantly attracted, he makes the fine 'disappear'.

Sally and Don

She falls in love with Don because he is a police officer. That is the only reason. They talk to each other like in the old detective movies. Even though Don isn't really considered good looking, Sally thinks of him as that because of his uniform and job. She wants to be a good girlfriend to him, and sometimes thinks she's not good enough for him, or not pretty enough. Even though this isn't true, Don goes along with it and doesn't tell her otherwise in case she'll leave him.

It is obvious that Don is weak, and he is very fake with Sally, he probably only likes her because she's "smokin." Once it is shown he is a weakling and he wants to be a baker, they break up.

Alternate Universe

In the two-part episode "Dick'll Take Manhattan" Sally is a famous column writer for a newspaper with her main topic being sex. In this universe she is dating Don Orville who happens to be Mayor of the city and married to another woman. After Sally finds out that he's married to some other woman she gets upset and tells Don off then is eventually swoon back to him.

Sally's character in the alternate universe is an homage to 'Sex and the City' ; She writes a sex column for a newspaper, she has an addiction to shoes, she smokes, she has the same fashion-sense as Carrie (and hair style) she even has a 'Carrie' necklace. At one point the group are seen gossiping in a restaurant with cocktails a la 'Sex and the City'
