Aunt Catherine's Freak Out on the stage might be due to something far more sinister.
Her co-conspirators included a crooked Concierge Doctor, a bark-is-worse-than-his-bite bodyguard, and a technology professional who has no remorse over essentially Mind-Raping a comatose woman for intellectual property. She had also partnered with someone to produce the Ashley Too robots that broke a United Nations mandate on cookies. So, who else has she partnered with?Ashley Too will become a Breakout Character.
The Ashley O/Too investigation is going to add good legal precedents for cookies.
Cookies have already been recognized by the UN as sentient and should have rights. With all the public attention and support the Ashleys are going to get, someone is going to want to represent Ashley Too. That lady isn't about to take more crap, so why not make history?Aunt Catherine was a psychopath from the beginning, even before adopting Ashley O.
We already saw how much unhinged she was. So it's possible that she has always been a violent psychopath even before exploiting Ashley's success. Before her, Aunt Catherine may have hurt more of her victims, both physically and mentally out of her own sadism whenever they would not do what she says and likes seeing them hurt.
