### Summary
Following her body swap, Rita fully embraces her new life as Bertha, immediately beginning to plot her revenge with a malicious glee that readers find both unhinged and captivating. Despite an initial intention to remain discreet, she makes bold, contradictory moves like discarding all of Bertha's old dresses, solidifying her reader-perceived persona as a "psycho" anti-heroine. A significant point of speculation revolves around Bertha's fiancé, who is always accompanied by a male "friend," leading many to believe he is gay and adding complexity to Bertha's known hatred for him. While the audience is largely thrilled by the promise of a juicy revenge story and the protagonist's "crazy" demeanor, some confusion persists regarding the backstory of the body swap and the original Bertha's circumstances. A few readers also voiced discomfort with the brief handling of the original Bertha's suicidal ideation. Overall, the chapter builds on the provocative tone of its predecessor, establishing the protagonist as a calculating and ruthless figure ready to pursue her vengeance, leaving readers eagerly anticipating the chaos to come.
