why would the aunt send angela to camp?


did she want her gender revealed?

reply

Was her aunt really her aunt? Or was it her uncle?

reply

she was played by a woman

reply

The aunt had a few screws loose. She even had Angela’s physical altered.

reply

it was just long hair

reply

No, in the beginning she hints to having had their “physicals”, or medical checkups required by the camp signed off instead of actually completed. I would have to watch the beginning again but I’m almost sure of it. 😀

reply

the aunt was a doctor so i assumed they were faked. no one at the camp examined angela

reply

Right, but to go to camp the kids had to get a check up. I didn’t realize the crazy aunt WAS the doctor.
