We dont talk much about Marguerite RE7

[Tokyo]

Many people say Marguerite is the one antagonist they are most curious about. Yet I find very few topics about her. Sadly I have many questions about her unanswered. And it is seriously messing with my mind at night. Can someone pls help me answer these questions.

- Why can she control bugs
- Why does she resort to violence as her last option to turn you into a molded or kill you.
- Why does she need her lantern
- When she has many options to run after you like Jack. She instead has this sickening slow walk towards you.
- She knows Zoe is in the trailer, why doesnt she just open the trailer door and take her like Lucas.
- Why is she so... Friendly? That may sound weird, but she speaks to Clancy like a mother. She got mad when he wasn't eating calling him a bad boy. Than when she realizes he is isnt going to eat. She makes him more food. Calling him a "picky eater". When she caught Clancy out of bed she did what most mothers do when they get frustrated with a child. She tried to hurt him.

Please help before I die of lack of sleep...

1- because the E-type infection involves psychic powers

2- I'm not really sure what is this question about. That applies to every Baker. They don't always want to kill you right away. That's because of Eveline's whole "family" crap with her infection.

3- To atract her bugs

4- Enemy design. Nothing special about it. Jack doesn't really run as well.

5- Zoey is her daughter. There are files in the game pointing that they were being merciful while the infection was taking over. One specific file quotes Marguerite "getting sick of you bitch (Zoey) already". The E-type infection comes and goes as well, remember Mia in the guest house.

6- Again, just like question n°2, The E-type infection revolves around the whole "part of the family" crap.

You missed something. Ever notice how a lot of Margie's attributes are very "motherly"? The way she treats Clancy in the bedroom, calls the bugs her "children", etc.. And the final boss fight with her, where is her weak point? HER WOMB.

There is also a few hints in some documents and dialogue that she may have had a miscarriage or otherwise lost a child, and this has left a gaping wound in her psyche. Given the Japanese's love for symbolism, I believe Margie is supposed to represent a broken mother who was made whole in a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up way by Eveline. To her, Eve was the child she lost.

I must admit that I didn't form these ideas on my own- look up a YouTube channel called NightMind, he has a great longform video dissecting the various symbolism and analogies throughout RE7. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3P92md6RfE

Enjoy!
