    You mean Hell Valley, 1985A, whatever other crazy names we come up with?

    Hard to say. Edna struck me as the type to probably have moved out of Hill Valley once it started descending into Biff-driven madness.

    It's also possible she was murdered at some point...given those people who assaulted Strickland's house opened fire on him with automatic weapons in plain view of the neighborhood, I wouldn't put it past them to murder his sister just to get to him.

    That's a very good question. :)

    We can't really call that timeline Hell Valley, anymore - since the Citizen Brown Timeline could also be considered a Hell Valley timeline. I do wonder how the rest of the world was affected, in the Citizen Brown timeline.

    My guess would be that Edna got murdered sometime before the events we see in the movie. As far as for her personally, that one is a bit of a hard call. I'll have to think on that one.

    Her brother kept her locked up, away from those pesky newspaper thieves.

    She probably packed it up and left at the first sign of chaos. Either that or she's one of the chalk outlines; probably had a heart attack due to the hooliganism.

    I wouldn't be surprised if she was living with her brother.

    She doesn't like Kid tannen so I can't imagine she enjoyed seeing his son ascend to power.

    She does seem like she has roots in town and wouldn't leave. If she was the busybody she is in the other timelines, she would have been whacked.

    Another question is what becomes of Kid in the biffhoric timeline? Presumably biff has the power to have him released assuming he's still alive.

    For some reason this question made me imagine Edna wearing goggles and sitting on the balcony with one of those WWII anti-air guns shooting down passers-by.

    Thank you for providing me with possibly the greatest mental image of Edna ever conceived.

    Now suddenly I'm glad the DeLorean flew nowhere near her place, because the last thing they needed was being shot down...

    No. Edna never struck me as someone who would be prone to suicide. (As someone who has attempted suicide in the past and has to deal with serious depression, I can identify people who might be prone to the same thing. Edna is not one of them.)

    Yoman: At that point since they were going to rewrite history anyway it made perfect sense for the DeLorean to fly around without a care about who saw it. After all, none of their memories would be maintained. (Unless of course Hell Valley continued to exist in an alternate universe after they fixed their own history, as happens in one of Kristen Shelley's stories.)

    i didnt say anything about them not wanting people to see the delorean, if you looked properly i said about them flying away from the casino.

    Yes but I don't see what flying away from the Casino has to do with Edna's living situation. Remember, the Casino was the Courthouse, therefore in the same place in downtown Hill Valley as everything else. Edna's place was suggested to be somewhere else in the Hill Valley metropolitan area...it's a fairly big place.

    It was part of a joke, she had a anti-aircraft gun and say they DID fly over her house, then well... lets just say the timeline wont be changing any time soon, the point is they were flying for quite a while before they traveld throught time...
