** Alice uses AppliedPhlebotinum [[PeoplePuppets to make her daughter perform against her will]] while researching ways to [[GrandTheftMe eventually switch places with her]].


Added DiffLines:

* '''Played For Laughs''': Alice's motives for this are comically transparent. Claire turns out to be a [[BadBadActing really bad actor]], yet Alice completely fails to notice this and brightly praises her every performance like it was award-winning.
* '''Played For Drama''': Alice abuses her station as Claire's mother to shove her towards the stage against her will, refusing to let her daughter pursue any of her ''actual'' interests. This snowballs into WhyDidYouMakeMeHitYou as she staunchly refuses to let Claire's utter misery ''ruin'' her chances at seeing her career take off.
