Maggie

Maggie is a minor character in Don't Escape 4 Days in a Wasteland. She is the wife of Barry, who dies in the first night, leaving him a somber and distraught man. She first appears as a corpse, but is potentially encountered in the 3rd dream in a New Game + playthrough, if Barry died in the previous run.

Appearance
Maggie is an African-American woman in her mid-thirties to mid-forties. She has short black hair and wears a pink sweater, black pants and shoes.

Personality
Maggie is described by Barry as a kind and gentle person. She and her husband were deeply in love, and she continues to watch out for him even after death.

History
Before the events of the game, Barry and Maggie had their wedding in 1986 and would lead happily marriage for the next 10 years.

When Cate and David find Barry's house on day 2, they learn that the danger from last night killed Maggie, leaving Barry too depressed to continue living. When David examines Maggie's body, he finds a gold locket with a note she wrote for Barry in case she wouldn't survive. In the note, she encourages him to continue life without her. After David offers Barry to help burry Maggie, Barry joins him.

If Barry dies on day 3 on the roof of the Sidereal plexus building, and the player finished the game with at least one of the two required floppy disks in the sleep machine, some of David's memories carry over to his next life. Because of this, in his nightmare for the third day, David encounters Maggie, who warns David not to let Barry come with him to Sidereal Plexus. As such, when the incident on the roof happens again, only Cody is endangered, David can save him without having to sacrifice Barry, and both of them live. It should be noted that the Maggie met in the dream claims to not actually be the real Maggie, but a duplicate from Barry's recollection of her.

In the real ending, Barry is seen living with Maggie in a world where the lunar explosion never happened. The two are holding adoption papers, most likely for Cody.
