Biography[]
When Marnie's parents are always traveling abroad, she is left behind with her rude nanny who always yanks her by the arm and brushes her hair roughly to hurt her so much. She and the twin maids, Ursula and Ella De Vil abuse her physically and psychologically.
Marnie invited Anna as a guest for her parents' dinner party, but Nan tells her it is past her bedtime then Marnie and Anna ran up the stairs and Nan chased them into Marnie's room. Nan said to Marnie she is nothing but trouble, but with Anna's help, they tricked Nan into being locked in Marnie's room.
After the party, Marnie's parents were traveling again, and Nan disciplines Marnie.
After Marnie grew up and married Kazuhiko, the Nan and the maids were never seen again, either they are fired by Marnie's parents and arrested for their crimes of abusing Marnie, or died getting struck by lightning like Anna hoped.
