Something was very wrong with Phillip Garrido. He told Jaycee that “demon angels” allowed him to kidnap her. Also, he called his methamphetamine binges, “runs,” and during them he dressed Dugard up and cut up adult magazines with her. Garrido insisted she listen to the walls for the voices he heard. He claimed to be a chosen servant of God. At the end of his binge, he would cry to Jaycee and alternate between apologize and threatening to sell Jaycee to someone that would cage her.

After seven months, Jaycee was officially introduced to Nancy Garrido. She came in holding chocolate milk and a stuffed animal for Jaycee while she cried and apologized. In retrospect, Jaycee sees she was manipulated by Nancy, who would switch between cruelty and motherly affection. Also Nancy expressed feeling jealous of Jaycee and blamed the young girl for her situation.
