I honestly don't see this happening. Not because CW wouldn't be willing to, but because there's no reason for her to.

I mean, it will be staged--Corpse Witch will have a couple robots pretend that one is mugging the other (or coercing the other to fight somehow), etc. In order to test Faye's loyalty, to see what she does if she thinks she has a chance to sell them out to the police to save her own skin. It wouldn't be happening for real.

Method of Madness:
That's ridiculous, though. Why would she see if Faye would betray CW for cruel practices if she wasn't otherwise planning on cruel practices?

jheartney:
This is part of the problem with having officially illegal but unofficially tolerated activities: it just invites abuse. Further, because it's illegal, there's no way to legally deal with taxing the resulting income, meaning everyone involved is on the lam from the IRS. Faye is now in the impossible situation where she either has to rat out her co-workers, or have to take the fall herself if she doesn't.

She and Bubbles should bug out at the first opportunity. Of course it's easy for us to say that; if Faye wants to get another job, she'll need to explain the gaping hole in her resume where she was working an illegal enterprise.

At this point, though, I don't see Bubbles taking CW's word for it; she has enough of a bond with Faye that I think she'd go and ask Faye about it. She might do it belligerently ("How could you do this to us?"), or she might not; but I do think she'd ask.
