Her journey is more personal than those undertaken by other gifted tv girls, to save herself by developing connections with others. Though she supposed to be helping people, Jaye’s purpose isn’t precisely altruistic. “Told you,” the lion winks, and Jaye faints dead away. Because the instruction comes from an inanimate object, but also because she avoids messy human interaction at all costs, Jaye pays up, whereupon the customer’s purse is stolen as soon as she steps out the door.
