Cruel Twist Ending: Carly "frees" Grace...only she wasn't Meredith's actual grandmother. They're sisters, and they were manipulating Carly into giving up her own body through astral projection.

Be Careful What You Wish For: Carly persists at befriending Meredith despite Meredith's apparent disinterest and aloofness. It goes badly.

Ascended Fridge Horror

comment
Ascended Fridge Horror: By way of Foreshadowing. Carly says that her mother often doesn't believe what she says, due to her daydreamy tendencies. This helps to confirm that Carly's mother will likely never believe that her daughter was body-snatched into the body of an old woman, and she will die, relatively soon and unhappily. Carly's grandmother had dementia before her death. Carly promises that she'll always look after her, reducing her mother to tears. Except Carly isn't in her own body anymore and Grace and Meredith are very cruel and unpleasant.

Abusive Offspring

Abusive Offspring: Meredith terrorises her elderly grandmother, Grace, who raised her as a parent...by imprisoning "original" Meredith in her body. Except she didn't. Meredith and Grace are working together to trap Connie in Grace's elderly body. Now they've succeeded, though, it seems likely that Meredith will at least stay emotionally abusive, if not worse.
