## Biography

### House of 1000 Corpses

The squeaky-voiced, childlike Baby was probably one of the more comedic characters from the first film. A statuesque beauty with boundless youthful energy. She blended in easily with the outside world, making her the perfect lure for her family's victims. Now twenty-nine years old, Baby had become an expert with firearms and knives. By this point in time, Baby had a criminal record. She was wanted for first-degree murder, armed robbery, Grand Theft Auto, and prostitution. Baby has the group of teenagers drop her off at her house, but Rufus shoots out the teens' car tire, forcing them to come to the Firefly Farmhouse, where Baby flirted with Bill Hudley, causing a rivalry with Mary Knowles. During a show in which Baby sat on Bill's lap, Mary yelled at her, causing Baby to pull a knife and the teens to leave. As they all leave, Otis and Tiny bring them back to the house. She watches Otis kill Bill, and scalps Jerry non-fatally. She kills Mary in the family's  makeshift graveyard, taunting and frightening Mary before stabbing her multiple times.

### The Devil's Rejects

In May of 1978, Ruggsville County police officers laid siege to the Firefly ranch. Baby, Otis, Mother and Rufus defended their home and wore iron masks to protect their faces. Her brother Rufus was killed and Mother Firefly was arrested, but Baby and Otis managed to escape to the basement, which led into a sewer drainage tunnel.

After successfully evading capture, Baby and Otis took refuge inside of a motel room at the Kahiki Palms Motel. Baby used her flirtatious nature to catch a guest named Roy Sullivan off guard, thereby allowing Otis the chance to take him hostage. Returning to Roy's room, they took the other guests hostage, which consisted of Roy's country western band, Banjo & Sullivan. When the band's roadie, Jimmy, came to the door, Baby invited him inside, at which point, Otis shot him dead.

Otis gave Baby a gun and left her in charge of guarding the two female hostages, Gloria Sullivan and Wendy Banjo, while he took Roy and Adam Banjo to help him procure weapons. Baby was easily bored and as time passed, she entertained herself by forcing Wendy Banjo at gunpoint to slap Gloria repeatedly across the face. Wendy needed to go to the bathroom, but Baby only allowed her to leave the room after she was satisfied with the face-slapping episode.

Wendy took this opportunity and tried to escape. Baby went to check on her and as she did so, Gloria picked up her gun and pointed it at her. Baby withdrew a knife and threw it across the room, striking Gloria in the chest. As the woman lied bleeding in front of her, Baby mocked Gloria, daring her to shoot her in the buttocks with the gun. Gloria tried, but the weapon was unloaded. She died moments later.

Baby then went into the bathroom to check on Wendy, but the young woman managed to crawl out through the window. She didn't get far however, as Captain Spaulding had only just arrived and knocked the girl unconscious, bringing her back inside the motel room. Once Otis returned, all three decided to leave.

While driving down the road, Baby noticed a sign for Snowman's Ice Cream truck. She asked Otis to stop, but he refused. Spaulding and Baby ganged up on him, irritating Otis by constantly singing the words "Tuti fuckin' Fruity". As usual, Baby got her way and they stopped for ice cream.

That evening, they stopped at a brothel owned by Spaulding's adoptive brother, Charlie Altamont, known as Charlie's Frontier Fun Town. Charlie let them stay at his place until they could figure out what to do next. The following evening, Baby and the others were having a good time dancing, drinking and doing drugs. Unfortunately for her however, their freedom was short-lived. Sheriff John Quincy Wydell, brother of the late George Wydell, raided the brothel with two bounty hunters named Rondo and Billy Ray Snapper. Rondo held a gun to Baby's head and handed her over to Sheriff Wydell.

Sheriff Wydell wanted to dispense his own brand of justice on the three killers, so he brought them back to the Firefly ranch where they were bound to three chairs side-by-side. Wydell took great pleasure in telling Baby that he had murdered Mother Firefly in the interrogation room. He showed Baby a photograph of Mary Knowles, whom she had viciously murdered a year earlier, and stapled the photograph to her chest. After tormenting the three of them at length, Wydell let Baby go free. She ran out of the house, but Wydell wasn't finished with her. He wanted to hunt her down, just as she hunted down Mary Knowles. Wydell shot her in the back of the calf and Baby fell to the ground. He pounced on top of her and began strangling her, but fortunately for Baby, Tiny Firefly appeared and snapped Wydell's neck. Tiny then freed Otis and Spaulding.

By this point, the family house was going up in flames. Leaving Tiny behind, the three of them piled into Wydell's car and drove off through the night. The following morning, they spotted a police barricade further up the road. Realizing that they were not going to survive, they decided to go out in a blaze of glory. Otis gunned the engine while Spaulding and Baby fired their weapons at the police officers. All three of them are wounded in a hail of gunfire.

### 3 From Hell

Baby, Otis, and Spaulding barely survive the shooting and fully recover before being sentenced to death row in prison. Spaulding gets executed by lethal injection while Baby and Otis spend 10 years in prison. She is shown to have become even more insane, even hallucinating a cat doing ballet. After Otis & his half-brother Foxy escape the law and have Warden Virgil sneak Baby out of prison before killing him; Baby is shown now to be more independent of herself and controlling, much to Otis's surprise. The trio than decide to move to Mexico as their next escape route. They arrive and have a night partying but are soon under attack by Rondo's son Aquarius. Baby manages to kill most of his hitmen with a bow and arrow she took from Virgil's house. Baby and Foxy are captured and are tied up. While they watch Otis machete battle one of Aquarius's men, Sebastian helps untie them before being fatally shot by a hitman. The trio overthrow Aquarius & then set him on fire right before they walk into the distance.
