Unlike her partner in crime, who has since made peace with her past and used it to better her life, Hilary appears to have never truly gotten over her past, and lives a damaged life as a reclusive hermit, away from others. She is, however, a devout catholic and apparently spends much of her time devoted to prayer. | Unlike her partner in crime, who has since made peace with her past and used it to better her life, Hilary appears to have never truly gotten over her past, and lives a damaged life as a reclusive hermit, away from others.
