Martha is Maggot's friend, but Emmy also spends time for her. All three are involved in heavy drug use, and Martha ends up staying at a "crack house" for a time. After Emmy disappears, June tasks Demon with tracking down Martha, who she believes might know where Emmy has gone. Although Demon does find Martha, she tries to throw herself from the car on the way to June's house, seemingly afraid to face June about whatever trouble Emmy is in.
