Ashley possesses many characteristics of a high school mean girl:[[SpoiledBrat she is so materialistic as to care only about her grandpa's possessions than Walt]], [[ItsAllAboutMe she whines about the cell phone's coverage at a funeral for her grandmother]], [[AgeInappropriateDress she dresses in a disrespectfully revealing manner at a solemn occasion]], [[LazyBum and she needs too lazy to help Walt with some chairs.]]
Ashley is incredibly unpleasant to her grandfather, [[JerkassHasAPoint, which might be kind of understandable considering how much of a hardass Walt is.]] But despite being a hardass, Walt does understand the importance of things like tradition and family. Ashley shows zero concern for either, implying her brattiness is a genuine trait, and it likely extends to other parts of her life.

[[WMG: Alternatively, Walt is a retired Harry Callahan living under an assumed name]]
Walt's already been interpreted as, thematically and allegorically, an evolution of the Callahan character (see "Clint Eastwood and Male Weepies" by Tania Modleski) in the same way [[Film/{{Unforgiven}} William Munny]] is an evolution of [[Film/DollarsTrilogy The Man With No Name]] and [[Film/TheOutlawJoseyWales Josey Wales]]. Given Callahan's law enforcement career and the many enemies he's made in the San Francisco area alone, it's not inconceivable that he would've changed his time in retirement to avoid, say, someone he arrested tracking him down and killing him in retaliation - a very real occurrence in the justice system.
Like Harry, Walt is a asshole and retired badass able to intimidate most people without ever having to fire a shot. Like Harry, he's a largely unrepentant bigot settled in his ways, but unlike Harry, Walt doesn't have his badge or a BigBad to fall back on and thus forced to evolve. Also unlike the above theory, Callahan and Eastwood are the same age so the timeline pans out.
