### Debut

D0n'T\_CrY.Mp4

**Ava Greywhinder** - known also as **The Baby** and **The Doll** - is the youngest child of Martin and Gloria Greywhinder. She was presumably killed by Martin during the tape of She\_C4n't\_Sle3p.mp4 due to a gunshot wound (seen in the credits to THE\_MIRACLE\_CHILD) before being brought back to life using a stop-motion puppet.

## Appearance

Before becoming the The Doll, Ava Greywhinder had been described to be a newborn with brown/reddish hair and dark eyes according to the Christmas special cartoon short. However, any visuals including her appearance are tinted to a black and white color scheme or distorted via glitches.

In the 360 character showcase, it's shown that her twisted form is of an infant with peach tinted skin. There is a large scar across it's chest alongside a possible bullet wound on it's forehead. It's face is consistently crying and other heads sprout off with other facial expressions (most of which are smiling). One of the heads is upside down whereas another has the skin on top split away from the scalp.

The Doll itself is pale in color for it's skin. The joints for it's limbs and neck are grey. There is a slightly darkened blush to it's cheeks. Similar to the twisted design, the doll also has a scar/cut on the chest area alongside a crack on it's forehead which leaks blood.

## Personality

Because of her young age, Ava wasn't aware of what happened to her and her family. Although this didn't deter the bond she shared with Banzo. According to him in THE\_PERFECT\_PET, she fed him treats, gave him attention and overall seemed to enjoy the dog. Even after her own death. This led to his refusal to dispose of her by Martin, causing him to take her life instead.

When fused with Banzo, she inherently becomes aggressive and violent against others (e.g the police officers who enter the Greywhinder residence). It most likely is due to their combined hatred against Martin and acting on anger/paranoia.

## Origins

### **Don't Cry.mp4**

This is first appearance of The Doll. It reveals the identity of The Doll to be Ava Greywhinder, or The Baby. Within the video, directly after the Ice Cream Man smashes his face against a wall, there is a zoomed in shot of The Doll's mask with a large crack/bite-mark on the top of it. Small streaks of blood have flown from this spot. A few seconds later The Doll removes its mask to reveal a crying baby's face (Ava) as a spine-tingling baby shriek begins to play.

### **\_Rebirth\_**

The second appearance of Ava Greywhinder. Though the tape is not only about her, but it explains how she dies. We view the room through a baby monitor as little Ava is sleeping in her crib at night. The Stitchbuddy (Banzo) is ordered by Martin to kill her, so later on in the night Banzo sneaks into Ava's room and watches her from above, taking some time to debate if he should kill her or not.

#### **Kill / Don't Kill**

**Kill** - Banzo kills Ava (supposedly by biting her head). Martin congratulates him on doing as he asked and proving his obedience. He then calls Banzo a "*monster*" because Martin did not physically kill her, even though he commanded Banzo to do so.

**Don't Kill** - Banzo disobeys Martin, deciding not to kill Ava. Martin comes up behind Banzo as he is still staring at Ava, yelling angrily. He scolds Banzo for his actions, calling him "*broken*" and stating that "*He was so close*" and "*It's not his fault*".

### **My Two Front Teeth - [Harmony & Horror Christmas Special]**

Ava appears in the beginning when her sister, Sophia, holds her up and says to Henry, "*Well, maybe you should get bundled up like this cute, little Christmas present*" as a joke for him being so cold.

Two days later, Sophia wakes up and goes into the living room to meet Uncle Arthur and Henry. Arthur gives her a wrapped present and tells her, "*Oh, before I forget, Sophia. Your father wanted me to give you this gift. It's rather heavy, but he said not to open it till' Christmas Morning*".

A little bit before the end, when Sophia is the only living one left in the family, she hears Ava crying and goes to search for her, however she does not find her and winds up getting killed. And after everything is over, it is sadly revealed that the contents of the gift were the murdered remains of Ava Greywhinder and the credits roll with the picture of her lifeless body in the background.

### **THE\_PERFECT\_PET**

Both Ava and Banzo seem to make a return for the revamped version of Harmony & Horror in this tape. At 10:20, the video cuts to an empty scene where The Baby Doll is lying down on a checkered floor underneath a spotlight. As it rises up, something else can be seen from the distance which is revealed to be a badly damaged Banzo.

The Baby Doll tries to crawl to him as a path begins to light it's way. Banzo calls out via a bark to the doll that eventually tries to stand and walk over to him from afar. Unfortunately, it stumbles over itself, cracking the center of it's head as the expression changes to a frown. It proceeds to sit back down as it cries out in pain, extending it's arms out to Banzo in hopes of reaching him.

As a response, Banzo works up enough strength to crawl along the floor to the doll. However, Banzo quickly faints as The Baby Doll tries to continue on crawling towards him. A disembodied voice is heard saying the following during this scene (presumed to be Banzo):

> "*I don't know you that well. But I know you feed me treats, you pet me, you loved me Ava. I'm so sorry little one.*"
>
>

The scene fades to white as two options are presented to the viewer: free or rebirth.

### **Free/Rebirth**

**Free** - This option seems to reveal the good ending to the previous tape where both The Baby Doll and Banzo are seen laying down together. A soft lullaby plays gently in the background (Rock A Bye Baby to be exact) as the following text appears (revealing dialogue between Ava and Banzo):

> **B:** "*Ava...?*"
>
>

> **A:** "*Puppy.*"
>
>

> **B:** "*I'm so sorry...*"
>
>

> **A:** "*...*"
>
>

> **B:** "*Don't cry. I know it hurts.*"
>
>

> **A:** "*Mama.*"
>
>

> **B:** "*Let go Ava. It's okay. I'll take you to your Mama.*"
>
>

As the dialogue ends, two spherical shapes can be seen exiting the bodies of The Baby Doll and Banzo which float upwards (presumably to Heaven) before the scene fades out.

**Rebirth** - This option seems to reveal the bad ending to the previous tape as two officers are heard exploring the Greywhinder residence to arrest Martin for his crimes. Unfortunately - instead of being free from their torment - The Baby Doll and Banzo have merged together to become another one of Martin's monstrosity hellbent on finding and attacking the officers.

It could be assumed after these events within the tape led to the creature's escape or retreat further within the Greywhinder residence. For now, it's not known what became of both the merged monstrosity or the officers investigating the building.

### **THE\_MIRACLE\_CHILD**

Her brief appearance is found in the credits off-screen. In the background of the credits, screaming and gunshots are heard signifying Gloria's and Macy's death off-screen. A baby is heard crying after this (likely Ava) before there is a final gunshot and the crying ceases as the tape comes to a close. In a twist from the first season of episodes, Martin is now responsible for her death instead of Banzo which would explain how the "*Don't Kill*" and "*Rebirth*" options for THE\_PERFECT\_PET were canon to the next few series of tapes released.

## Trivia

* Banzo seems aware of his relationship with Ava as "*THE\_PERFECT\_PET*" tape confirms he was against killing Ava by Martin's command.
	+ He's also quite protective of Ava considering she was the youngest out of her two other siblings, making her a larger priority and the source of guilt when he wasn't able to protect her from him.
* Ava doesn't seem to understand that she is dead unlike her older siblings, instead calling out to Banzo and her mother Gloria for help.
* She's not entirely hellbent on receiving justice for what Martin has done to her considering her young age.
* Some people have been debating on how exactly Ava did die in the series considering some are convinced Martin is to blame (when Banzo failed to do so for him) whereas some speculate Banzo was responsible. But, one crucial feature emphasized in the series seems to indicate possible brain damage and/or internal bleeding via her skull being heavily wounded.
	+ When watching THE\_MIRACLE\_CHILD, the credits reveal that Martin was likely responsible for her death as there is a baby crying off-screen, a gunshot is heard and then silence ensues.
* Ava might have possessed a stop-motion doll instead of becoming it given there's no flesh/bone interior to indicate her body being linked to the doll besides from the wound on its head and scar against its chest. This and there being little indication that Martin made Ava into the stop-motion doll like her other siblings.
* Besides from Gloria, she is one of Martin's victims to not be made into a purchasable toy or mascot for his production line.
* The fused monstrosity of Ava and Banzo is named Alpha, Battington confirmed this on one of his YouTube community posts.
