Chloe going "This stupid brat..." is her thinking it but not saying it, because she can be annoyed and have a bad thought from time to time. The AI we added isn't the best thought police. Though if you think about that scene she "has no mouth and she wants to scream" is understandable as even the ones closest to her are just going along with everything like nothing is wrongIf you looked at previous comments, you'd know that the developers plan to add events and choices that would lead to them being cured. Although, if you can cure them, would you? I don't know Gwen enough to fully make a choice between curing her or keeping her, but utilizing the original personality option for Chloe, it's clear that she is very resentful and violent. Not only that, unless I'm perceiving it wrong, in the weekend visit with Alice event, Chloe says to herself "This stupid brat..." when talking about Alice, meaning that she has no love or consideration for Alice, and I find that downright despicable. Maybe there's more truth to it and there might be an event to rehabilitate the original personality without the use of control or shatter, but if not and it's either her or her shattered personality, I'd say let the old Chloe fade away, because if she can't care for anyone other than herself, then I don't see why I should let her go.
Would be nice if ArcGames actually let Original Personality out to play by giving some scenarios that Chloe actually wants with the option of the MC indulging her. Right now Chloe doesn't like being controlled, that's clear in her thoughts, though the MC hasn't gained Mind Reader ability yet so all these thoughts while a fun extra for the Player doesn't really get addressed in game. When her and Alice go to that Halloween Festival she doesn't like needing help, being poor can be a bitch at times, and also wants Alice to grow up to be a good person, at least a good person by her standards (Organization Propaganda of her not associating with freaks but that's more of her drinking too much of the cool aid). Pretty sure the MC is still in the camp of "please don't kill me" so her wanting to kill him is the reason he has to keep her under control which is a good argument for her not being a blank slate. All the memories she still retains also suggest she isn't fully gone.
Somewhat curious as to what happen to Chloe and Alice's parents? Being in the Organization probably implies the Fey had something to do with that though I guess being poor and needing money to keep Alice clothed, fed, and have a roof over her head is enough to accept almost any job. How much does Jessica pays her to be her 'bodyguard' anyway? Maybe ArcGames will let us see where those two live someday, however if it's a dump in some slums it's more reason to let Alice live at the Manor.
I like options so having a path where she is unshackled from the AI control and another where the AI assimilates her completely sounds interesting. A sassy girl sounds fun as long as she doesn't want to kill me Definitely prefer her having some attitude over the generic "Yes, Master" robotic AI personality.
