Сисси приседания
Biography Edit
Time with VanyaEdit
Sissy takes Vanya into the Cooper household after hitting her with her car, and Vanya becomes a nanny to Sissy’s son Harlan. The two eventually grow closer and Sissy reveals to Vanya that she has feelings for her. Vanya returns the sentiment and the two begin having an affair behind her husband’s back. Carl eventually finds out and threatens to send Harlan Cooper, their son, away to an institution if Vanya does not leave Sissy alone.
Vanya goes back to the farm and Sissy gets to the house as Vanya is packing their things for their escape. The two decide to make good on their fantasy of running away together. However, Sissy’s note makes Carl alert the police and Vanya uses her powers on two policemen before being knocked out by the gun of remaining policemen. This shatters their dream of running away together as Vanya is taken away from SIssy’s arms and given to the FBI.
Later, Sissy is seen sitting on a bed disgusted as her husband brushes her back while he tells her Vanya is believed to be a Russian communist who used them for her own agenda.
When Harlan starts showing signs of powers via his and Vanya’s connection as she is tortured by the FBI, Sissy and Carl watch him. For the first time, Harlan utters a word. He calls out Vanya’s name and his father roughly grabs him, dragging him to his car.
He tells her that he won’t take into account her feelings; Sissy has had enough of her loveless and emotionally abusive marriage. As he decides to make good on his threat to take Harlan away, she threatens him with a shotgun. Carl is able to steal the shotgun from her and accidentally lets the gun go off, almost hitting Harlan. Harlan deflects the bullet with his new abilities and instead hits Carl, killing him.
After Vanya seemingly drains all of the power she transferred into Harlan, she later finds Sissy in Harlan’s room. She watches over her son as he sleeps. Then when Vanya mentions they should leave with her and return back to Vanya’s original place in 2019, Sissy is reluctant, and explains that she knows Vanya’s power and status as a Hargreeves will bring danger into her and Harlan’s life. She tells Vanya her time with her has affected her greatly and she loves her. She mentions going to California where she has a friend. The pair hold each other and kiss until Vanya bids Sissy goodbye as she returns back to her original place within the timeline.
As the final scenes approach we see Sissy driving past a ‘New Mexico’ sign with Harlan in the back seat.
The scene cuts as Harlan is shown levitating a sparrow in his palm signaling that Vanya didn’t drain all her power from him in the barn.

In the morning after, Sissy is seen as calm and care-free. She is satisfied and knows that her feelings for Vanya are real. The two begin kissing again until her husband honks his car signaling his return. The two-part and get dressed, going back to a script of nanny and housewife.
