Backstory
As a child, Mary would go to the original diner, ''The Rat and Cat Theatre. ''This diner didn't use animatronics, but only people wearing costumes of the characters. One day, while playing hide and seek with The Rat, she witnessed The Puppeteer, murder the The Rat and The Cat. Obviously, she reported to the police that The Puppeteer murdered The Rat and The Cat's actors. However, getting The Puppeteer arrested rid her with guilt and caused her to think she ruined someone's life. She was also obviously traumatized from witnessing the murders as well. Later on, she went to the reopened Rat and Cat Theatre. There she witnessed her brother get attacked by The Rat, making her trauma worse. She then decides to see a counselor to get over her trauma. The counselor tells her that she must keep defeating the Monsters each night and learn to face her fear, so he can find the source of the fear. After Mary defeats Monster Vinnie, an end screen show a letter from the counselor to her father, explaining that he thinks Mary has finally recovered fully.

Twenty-four years later, Mary went to the new and improved Freddy Fazbear's Pizza from Five Nights at Freddy's 2. There, she saw the Puppet, which triggered her memories of Vinnie. A minigame shows her surroundings fading out of existence, and the Puppet slowly transforming into Vinnie.

Mary then got a job at the Rowboatics Corp. Factory. Unfortunately, Mary fell asleep on the job once, allowing two twins to sneak into the factory, where they were killed by RAT. Obviously, Mary was fired for her incompetence. Two months later, she got a job as the night shift security guard at Candy's Burgers and Fries. On her seventh day working there, she tampers with the animatronics' AI, causing her to get fired.
