One of the things that hurts the most in SPY is the end where Nancy finds Kate's letter to her in Ewan's hideout. I may have spoken about this before so forgive me, but it's weighing on me tonight so I gotta yap to yall about it. Spoilers, okay? I know SPY has been out forever, but just so yall know I talk about the end of the game a lot here.
Nancy, after being falsely dragged to Scotland (I used dragged loosely, I KNOW she went willingly, but she went under false pretenses. She was manipulated into going, and I can yap about that another time), basically dredged up her entire childhood trauma. I'd say Nancy is a pretty well adjusted adult (again, I know she toes the line between being a teen and an adult, but in my head she's like eighteen-nineteen years old, so an adult, but like. baby adult. you feel me?), but you can see through her flashbacks that her memories of the time leading up to Kate's death was pretty traumatic in itself, with hearing her parents fighting (especially the moment where Carson says "What should I tell Nancy, huh? That- That her mom doesn't care about her enough to stay?" [paraphrasing, I may have misremembered the exact wording but the sentiment is the same]). In Scotland, she's continually learning about the things that lead up to her mother's death. From Moira's deception to Kate (IE; guaranteeing her protection despite knowing that there was no backup for Kate) to how Kate was involved with Cathedral, it's a lot of information to be suddenly dumped upon someone, even if they're actively seeking it out. Nancy learns about Revenant, and their plans for the world, and how Kate sacrificed everything in an attempt to keep the world safe, both for Nancy and for everyone else. Alright, alright, I know I said the letter to Nancy, I'm getting to it, I swear. At the end, when Nancy finds Kate's letter, that's when it hurts the most. The whole game really hurts, if I'm honest (especially with my emotionally unavailable mommy issues), but the moment when Nancy sees the letter, and Ewan has scribbled all over Kate's final words to her daughter, it just rips my heart out. Kate talks about Nancy's silly horse shirt, and how stubborn of a little kid she is, and how much she just really loves her daughter, and the whole thing is just marked up by a basement dwelling creep. There was no EARTHLY REASON for Ewan to both keep the letter and write all over it. None. The letter provides no information about Revenant that he could have used to replicate the virus that the organisation created. It was a letter from a terrified mother to her soon to be grieving daughter. I'm literally tearing up writing this, LOL. And the worst part about it is that Ewan had no real reason for doing what he did. He only turned to Revenant "because he could". Nancy speculates that he felt small and wanted to feel powerful, but that's not confirmed by him. His only reasoning behind his actions is because he could. That's it. For some reason, that makes the entire game hurt so much worse. Everything about the game is painful to me, especially the parts where you can hear how scared Carson is for Nancy (I mean, I would be too, he probably spent the whole time worrying that he was going to have to go through that grief again of losing someone who was only trying to help others). I'll wrap up my yapping now, but feel free to add onto this if I missed something, I'm just in AGONY over my favourite Nancy Drew game again :')
Katherine is actually Nancy's STEP-mom?
In the 88th ND book of the original series, there's a woman named Katherine who's a lawyer. She's a widow with an 11-year-old daughter, and she works with Nancy's dad at the same law firm. Carson and Katherine have worked on cases together and have known each other for several years.
There's nothing romantic mentioned to be going on between them but they think very highly of each other as lawyers. Katherine's daughter also thinks very highly of Nancy and her detective skills.
Where am I going with this? I honestly think that Katherine has the potential to be Nancy's stepmom. And how sweet it would be if Nancy had a stepsister that admires her! That means that the name of Nancy's bio mom is still unknown. (Because that would just be really weird to me if Nancy's potential stepmom had the same name as her bio mom. And even if Katherine doesn't become Nancy's stepmom, that must not be very fun for Carson, having a close colleague with the same name as his deceased wife.)
