| abstract | - Lily Littel was the wife of the former criminal "Little" Littel. She was a tall, statuesque woman with dak hair. She typically wore a lily on her chest. Lily was devoted to her husband, but wanted a more glamourous life for both of them. She convinced Little to use his skill with explosives in order to try to collect Big Boy's One Million Dollar Open Contract on Dick Tracy. Little's first attempt failed to kill Tracy, but it did kill Moon Maid (Tracy's daughter-in-law). Evidence surfaced that led the police to question the Littles, but they claimed to have an alibi. After the police left, the Littles prepared to try again. Tracy, Sam Catchem, and Lizz gathered more evidence against the Littles, and Junior Tracy became convinced that they were responsible for the death of his wife. Junior confronted the Littles at the electronics store just before Tracy and the other detectives arrived. A brief showdown took place, and Lily had to be subdued by Lizz. During the incident, a bomb's tuimer was started, and Little urged everyone to flee while he attempted to defuse it. The police officers evacuated the building, taking Lily with them. Little was unable to disarm the bomb. It exploded, killing him and destryong the store. After Little Littlel was killed, Lily swore vengeance against the police officers, Lizz and Junior in particular.
