Lilly Carbo

**Lilly Carbo** is the main protagonist in the season 1 of The Haunting Hour episodes Really You Part 1 and Really You Part 2. She is portrayed by Bailee Madison.

## Really You

At first, Lilly is an overindulged tween who gets what she wants, since she has a "gift" for manipulating her dad, Henry.

Her mother Jill and brother Brandon, are often frustrated by Lilly, as they fear she is spoiled, and in need of self control.

Things begin to change when "Lilly D." (The "D" being short for Deluxe) a life sized "Really You" doll, is purchased for the precocious tween.

Soon random "accidents" begin to happen; which Lilly is quick to
blame "Lilly D." for, as Lilly was told by another girl who had been
invited to Lilly's house, that "Lilly D. hates her."

While Jill dismisses the claims, scolding Lilly in the process;
her brother begins to suspect that Lilly D. is "more than just a doll."

Eventually, Brandon learns the truth about "Lilly D."

She **is** trying to replace her "human doppelganger",
 as Lilly D. is "evil and she wants to be human", according to the doll
maker who created "Lilly D.", yet was ignored when she told the "Really
You" company, to destroy the doll that eventually became "Lilly D."

After a trip to the doctor, as Lilly had fallen ill, for no apparent reason; "Lilly D." reveals to Lilly she **is**
 alive, by smashing a vanity table mirror. Lilly's protests to Jill are
ignored once again; as her mother walks away carrying Lilly D., she
remarks "I wish Lilly D.*was my daughter*, instead of you", before entering the bathroom for a few moments of relaxation.

Lilly soon starts going through a transformation, in which she is
 becoming Lily D. herself. Now almost completely doll, watches with one
human eye that Lily D. is now Lilly, who explains if she gets Lilly's
mother's love, she will be human forever. She then closes Lilly's eye
and she is now passed as Lily D.

The "new Lilly" is a total reversal of the "old Lilly." Sickeningly sweet, and polite.

During dinner that evening, she was praised for her new,
unselfish behavior. Unseen by the family, the "real Lilly" sheds a tear,
 which the "faux Lilly" wipes away, before anyone could see that her
"mother upset the doll."

"Lilly" dismisses her father's suggestion that some new
"accessories for Lilly D." are in order, by saying that she is "over
dolls", but she is really trying to get rid of the real Lilly.

After dinner, as well as doing the dishes; "Lilly" took "Lilly
D." out to the trash container, to remove her from the picture. Before
going back inside,"Lilly" told the real Lilly, as an afterthought; "I *always* **hated** you."

Lilly D's scheme begins to unravel, as Brandon discovers the switch. After telling Jill to **not** let
 "Lilly D. be taken by the garbage men", he gives chase to his "sister",
 as Lilly's mother discovers the truth as well; the doll she holds; is
the **real** Lilly.

Lilly is soon back to her human form when her mother realizes she
 should have never loved Lily D. more than Lilly, and Lily D. is now a
doll again. She gets up in the middle of the street, but before she can
do anything she is hit by a garbage truck.

The episode closes with "Lilly D." being found by two girls who
bicker over who will get the doll. The girls run away in terror as Lilly
 D. grabs one of their ankles, indicating she is still very much
"alive."
