Granted, this was only done after creating exact digital copies of everyone and uploading them into pleasant simulations in her cloud, and the only reason she did all this was because Squid was planning to [[GodzillaThreshold blow up the planet]] and Unicorn [[HypocriteHasAPoint couldn't save everyone's physical bodies]] with her rockets, but still...]]
