Susan learns that Mitzi had a boyfriend named Jack who was driven to insanity upon learning of her cancer. When Susan sees the Queen of Maggots behind Mitzi, she realises she is close to death, leading Mitzi to reveal she has cancer. She had lied about being Susan's daughter merely to save her life. After this, she meets Mitzi, a young, homeless woman willing to be her new roommate. Whilst summoning the cats, she receives an angry complaint from a neighbour, who threatens to call pest control. She returns to her house, attempting to return to her normal life. Susan then leaves, possibly after killing Doctor X. Upon searching around, she discovers that Doctor X kills his patients to reform them as artwork. She awakes later in some kind of hidden torture basement to the screams of another victim. Doctor X, knowing Susan is aware of Liz's death, traps and kills Susan. She reveals her feelings and past to Doctor X, and tells him how Liz killed herself the night before. Annoyed by the hospital's constant druggings and wanting to get home, Susan attempts to escape, only to be stopped by Doctor X - the hospitals' psychiatrist. She meets Liz in the hospital, a friendly nurse unhappy with her job, who tells Susan her 'daughter' saved her much to the chagrin and annoyance of Susan, who has no daughter. Susan then returns to the world of the living to wake up in a hospital bed and is soon forced to carry out her task. One night, Susan decides to take her own life, but this leads her to explore a strange place in death where she encounters the Queen of Maggots, who grants her immortality and gives her the task of ridding the world of five psychopaths referred to as the 'parasites'. She is known in her neighborhood as the cat lady.

She hates flowers, and her only companions are stray cats, whom she summons to her flat by playing her piano. The protagonist is Susan Ashworth, a chronically depressed, middle-aged woman with no friends. A sequel, titled Lorelai, was released on Steam (and other game download sites) on April 26th 2019.
