## Biography

### Early life

Lily was born in 2001, in Sunset Ridge, Colorado. When she was quite young, her father ran away with a woman he'd been having an affair with, leaving Lily's mother to raise Lily alone. But despite not having a father figure around, Lily and her mother made a nice life for themselves. She also met Sophie Dlamini during her childhood, quickly becoming very good friends. Lily was the first person Sophie came out too, and Lily was there with open arms and complete support.

In 2015, Lily began attending Sunset Ridge High School, where she was introduced to August Thrombey and Thomas Strode. Through the early years of high school, Lily developed a crush on Marcus Winters, Thomas's friend and fellow member of the football team. In her sophomore year, Lily and Marcus finally made a move on one another, their relationship beginning to blossom.

### The Sunset Ridge Murders

Lily is sat with her boyfriend, Marcus, and her friend, Sophie Dlamini. She is eagerly going over details her mom, who is a mortuary technician, shared with her regarding the death of Michael LeBeck. When August and Freddie join them, she fills them in on the details. When Freddie makes an insensitive remark, Lily is quick to scold him, showing compassion for people she never personally knew all that well, showing her kind and thoughtful heart. After Thomas joins them, Lily asks him what he was up to last night, after he brings up Michael calling him. When he defends himself, with the assistance of Marcus, Lily quickly drops the subject. The bell rings and she kisses goodbye to Marcus, before heading into school with Freddie and Sophie, when Sophie tries to discreetly give Freddie some privacy when Quentin Vaughn joins them. Lily realizes and hurries off with Sophie, albeit a lot less subtle than her friend.

At lunch, Lily, August, and Thomas are sat in the cafeteria, waiting for their friends and for the assembly to start. She jokingly calls her two friends unbearable when they begin to bicker like an old married couple. When Sophie joins the table and expresses her discomfort due to period cramps, Lily offers her some products. Freddie joins them soon after, with Lily asking if he saw Marcus on his way over. Freddie gestures behind him and Lily spies Marcus talking with Quentin, narrowing her eyes. She doesn't voice her opinions, but feels uneasy at Marcus and Quentin spending time together, especially as of late. After scolding Thomas for his insensitive remark, she and her friends head to the assembly.

During the assembly, she urges for Marcus to come between a growing confrontation between Paul Beauregard and Thomas and Quentin. After the situation is handled and Paul is sent on his way, Lily becomes visibly frustrated when Marcus excuses himself, giving her a brief peck on the lips.

The following day at school, the news of Paul's death spreads like wildfire and it doesn't take long for classes to be suspended. Reuniting with her friends outside, Lily invites them all to come over to her house that night for some drinks, as she doesn't want to be alone since her Mom is working the late shift again. She is ecstatic when her friends agree, and tells them she'll let them know when she's ready. She then rings Marcus, telling him she's coming by to pick him up so he can help her get everything ready.

Lily is next seen at Sunset Ridge Memoriam Hospital after getting a call that Thomas had been attacked. She has just finished crying by the time Freddie gets there to console her, where she expresses her worry that the killer might actually be targetting her gay friends. Reporter Yun-Jin Park emerges from the elevator and tries her luck in trying to get some info out of the teens, but Lily, not in the mood, stops her in her tracks before telling her to get lost. They're then called into Thomas' room by his mom, Christina. Lily goes right by Thomas' side, grabbing his hand before asking if he's okay. Before they can do anything else, the sheriff, Sarah Abbott, comes into the room to talk to the teens alone. After being asked where she was earlier, Lily is stunned, like her friends, to learn that Quentin was questioned again. However, she, like Thomas, doesn't fully believe that Quentin is responsible. After Thomas confirms he is coming over to her place, Lily calls Sophie to come pick them all up.

When they get to Lily's house, Lily appears grateful for the watchful eye of Sarah and deputy Paul Waitts. She tells her friends to go into the living room while she grabs them some beers. Freddie offers a hand and Lily gladly accepts, taking the beverages and snacks through for her and her friends. She explains that Marcus is out doing a few errands and will swing by in a shortwhile.

A little while later, after August and Freddie excuse themselves, Lily calls out Thomas for smoking so heavily, leading to a heated argument between the two. When Thomas storms out into the backyard angrily, Sophie claims that, while he might be a dick sometimes, he is right in why he's doing what he's doing. A knock at the door calls Lily away and she is surprised to find Quentin. When she brings him into the living room, she notices the dismay and annoyance on Sophie's face, after they all had a conversation that ended with them agreeing to not invite him along tonight after all. Quentin excuses himself to get a beer while Lily gets a text from Marcus that he's outside. She tells Sophie she's sorry and to at least be civil to Quentin.

She heads upstairs to her room to tell August to have a talk with Thomas following their argument, before telling them she's going out because Marcus is outside. Leaving the house, she sees her boyfriend outside of his car, with Sarah talking to him. Lily apologizes for not informing them that Marcus would be coming over. Marcus then tells her that he actually can't stick around for too long as his parents are riding him about coming home where they know he's safe. So Lily opts for a quick drive in his car, with the two finding a more secluded place to have sex in the short window of time they've got.

When Marcus drops Lily off back home, she notices August on the ledge of the window and waves at him, not being able to hear his warning. Once inside, she notices how it quiet it is, save for the faint sound of the TV coming from the living room. As she investigates, she's horrified to find the body of Quentin. She almost screams but shuts her mouth, not wanting to give away her position, and so instead she makes a run for the front door while dialing the police. But before she can escape, she is attacked by Blank Face, who chases her up the stairs.

Before she can even reach the top, Blank Face stabs her in the back before throwing her to the floor. As she desperately tries to fight them off, Blank Face grabs her by the hair and picks her up before throwing her out of the glass stained window, falling to her death on the concrete below.
