Wonka[]
Noodle first appears when she meets Willy Wonka after he is scammed into the Scrubbit household. She is initially suspicious of him, but she quickly warms up to him after he shows her some of his candy-making techniques. She and the other scammed servants at the Scrubbit household later help Wonka secretly sell his chocolate while avoiding the corrupt Chief-of-Police who is bribed by Slugworth & The Chocolate Cartel to make sure Wonka doesn't sell his chocolate.
After Wonka was forced out of town by The Cartel after making a deal to pay of his friends debts everyone except Noodle is released from their contracts after Mrs. Scrubitt revealed she is being paid by Slugworth to keep her there forever she is then locked in a tower known as The Coop for life until Wonka and her friends break her out. They plan to expose The Cartel's crimes by breaking into The Cartel's vault and steal a file listing all The Cartel's illegal payments guarded by the corrupt priest Father Julius and his chocolate loving monks Noodle & Wonka manage to get the file but are held up at gunpoint by Slugworth and The Cartel.
