Millie Sears

Millie Sears is a dancer for money at a carnival. She attracts the attention of Chun, the Snake Charmer, who despises the show and stays only for his obsession with Millie. Chun reveals his affections, but Millie spurns him. When talking with Joe later, he convinces her that Chun has a hidden fortune, and they should take it from him. Millie goes to Chun, feigning interest, she sees where he hides the money, with his cobras. Joe stabs Chun while he sleeps. Joe continues to the cobra cage, killing the cobras as well, and retrieving the money. Chun reveals himself, saying Joe had only stabbed a dummy. He calls down the Cobra Curse on Millie and Joe, turning the pair into cobras. Chun uses them in his act in lieu of the snakes killed by Joe. At night, Chun amuses himself by controlling the pair with his flute, their heads in human form. Millie and Joe plead to be released from the Cobra Curse, which Chun rejects. When the reed breaks on his flute, the pair bite and kill him. The pair are to remain cursed, however, as only Chun could have removed the spell.
