Why does Scrapbaby try to kill you?

[callie [she/her]]

When you're in the vents, you play as Michael Afton, right? That would explain why everyone else wants you dead: Scraptrap, because he blames you for Evan's death, Lefte, because they're the Puppet, who thinks you're William, Molten Freddy, because they're insane and sadistic. But Scrapbaby, no explanation. William didn't kill her, so she couldn't confuse you for him as a reason. She's shown to be fairly sane, and is also possessed by an innocent child, so she isn't sadistic. So that's vengeance, insanity and being twisted ruled out, so what is it?

It's not explained very well, but from what I've seen, there's a second side to Scrap Baby, the side that murdered Elizabeth in the first place. Another theory is that she just doesn't recognize Micheal, since he's changed after being scooped out, along with being manipulated by William to kill him, which would also make sense because her short monologue ends with her saying she'll "make daddy proud", and that implies that she knows William. This one to me seems the most logical.

also scrap baby kills you because she has deja vu from sister location. she knows and remembers that you are michael afton

[Cleyver]

Isn't Scraptrap called William Afton in UCN???

[Mother 3]

Because she'd think murder is great comedy, just like her father

"Something bad happened when there was one."
"I stopped being 'myself'."

Prior to Sister Location, we are told that William's daughter, now known as Elizabeth, was killed by Circus Baby, meaning that Circus Baby was programmed for murder. This heavily implies that whatever violent actions Baby causes are due to her programming and not Elizabeth.

It's Scrap Baby's original programming manipulating Elizabeth's perception to murder Michael, and not Elizabeth's intention to even hurt him.

I don't think it is manipulating her perception but she probably acts out of her control.

whoever mentioned that Circus Baby wants to make her dad proud by killing her older brother it was mentioned the fact that her programming makes her a hommicidial animatronic its her coding just like the other animatronics.She cant fight it since she is just a filler in the animatronic because she a spirit against a physchical being.
