The villainess revealed that she was behind the "accident" that killed Sam's mother, and she planned to kill both Sam and his father as well, right before she tied him to a chair and destroyed his recording device. In response, the evil Scarlet stated to Sam that she had an obsession with being rich, and after her robbery was foiled, she decided to marry Sam's father so she could inherit his business. In the story's climax, Sam planned to trap Scarlet into revealing everything, which included Sam wearing a hidden recording device and confronting the villainess over her actions. Sam figured that Scarlet's motive was his knowledge of her criminal activities, and after Sam arrived home, Scarlet facetiously greeted her stepson, all while flashing a sinister smile on her face. During the second assassin's attempt, Sam saw a note fall out of the man's pocket and read the contents, which revealed that Scarlet had sent that hitman (as well as the previous one) to kill Sam for a $1 million payout. The man was arrested, but afterwards, a second man attempted the same thing, leading to his own arrest as well. Later, while Sam was playing soccer, he was confronted and attacked by a man who informed Sam that he had been ordered to kill him.

Sam's attempts to warn his father about the woman, officially introduced as Scarlet, were met with disbelief, leaving Sam to wonder why Scarlet was suddenly in a relationship with his father. However, once the day came, Sam was shocked to see that his new stepmother was the same woman from the robbery, as he had recognized her features and her voice. At some point after his wife's passing, Sam's father informed his son that he had met someone and was going to introduce her, with Sam voicing his approval of having a stepmother, stating through his narration that he needed a mother figure. In the time that passed, Sam spent a lot of time with his parents, but later on, Sam's mother was killed in a freak car accident. The villainess warned the police not to enter, threatening to kill Sam's mother however, the officers entered and arrested the four other robbers, while Scarlet ended up getting away. She was shown holding Sam's mother hostage once the police appeared, and it was during this point that Sam recognized the masked robber as a woman, noticing her blue eyes and red hair.

Scarlet was introduced as the lone female member and ringleader of a group of robbers appearing at a bank that was visited by main protagonist Sam and his mother.
