OK, I may not have the answer, but I have the solution:
1. Get the "corrupted" character out of there. Delete.
2. Bring in another "OK" character, and direct the camera to Look At it.
3. Directly replace the "OK" character with your "corrupted" character, in its same spot.
4. Your camera will already be "Looking At" your character. You are good to go.
5. I still can't link to that character though. The camera "sees" right through her to the plane below, and picks that.
