Becky Beckett (Killer Rivalry)

**Becky Beckett** (Anna Marie Dobbins) is the secondary villainess from the 2022 Lifetime film, *Killer Rivalry* (airdate April 22, 2022).

## Backstory & Introduction

Not much is revealed about Becky Beckett's backstory, only that it wasn't her real name (which was never revealed in the film). She lost her parents when she was a baby, which led to being in foster care throughout her childhood, and at some point, Becky became a fan of college volleyball player Annika Sanchez, who played at Southwestern University. Annika was involved in a rivalry with Gable University player (and main protagonist) Charly McLeod, which included the opposing teams playing pranks on each other.

At some point, Becky and Annika formed a friendship and an alliance, with Annika sending Becky to do "whatever it takes" to make sure that Annika became the #1 volleyball player. Becky's plan included killing Annika's partner, Hilary Horn, doing so by bludgeoning her with a hammer, and in disguise, the villainess attacked Annika and set up her boyfriend, Jeff, as the attacker. Becky's introductory scene saw her presented to Coach Megan as her new equipment manager, with Charly forming a friendship with Becky, much to the chagrin of Charly's partner, Kiki Blackburn. Becky used her position to continue her scheme, which included leaving tanning oil and causing Kiki to slip and fall, and also planting a dead rat in Charly's room.

## Reveal

    Kiki began voicing her suspicions of Becky to Charly, who refused to believe that Becky was anything other than a good friend to her. Kiki planned to look into Becky, but later in the film, Becky broke into Kiki's home and bludgeoned her to death with a hammer. The scene officially revealed Becky as a villainess, and later on, Becky began to target Charly, doing so by arranging a meeting at a bar and drugging Charly's drink. After Charly began to feel the effects, Becky drove Charly to a nearby cabin, and later tied her up next to Annika, after which Jeff showed up and attempted to free them. At that moment, the evil Becky appeared and took a photo of Jeff, with the scene revealing that the villainess forced Jeff to act as her accomplice.

The girls freed themselves later on, and regarding Becky, she was shown with Annika arguing over her actions, after which Annika was revealed as the true mastermind. Becky attacked Annika afterwards, and later attacked Jeff after he confronted the villainess and learned that he was set up. Charly later appeared and informed Becky that she overheard everything and had already called police, and when Becky was asked for a reason for her actions, the villainess simply stated that she was a fan before running off. Her attempt to escape (which saw Becky remove her blonde wig) saw her stopped by police and arrested, and in her last scene, Becky was visited by Annika, who informed Becky that Jeff survived before vowing to win her match, while promising to visit Becky again.
