Lily (Sheila Vand), Persian Harding (Aleksa Palladino), and Crystal (Sonja Kinski) are secondary villainesses from "Mother's Day", the fourth film of the 2016 horror anthology film Holidays. They are members of a coven of barren witches seeking a woman to use to bear them a child.
The film's events have the women targeting protagonist Kate Paulson, who has a condition where she becomes pregnant after every sexual encounter. Kate is led to going to the coven by Persian's doctor sister, who claims the coven to be a clinic not specializing in conventional medicine. Kate is greeted by Persian, who is later shown present at a ritual/orgy of sorts along with Lily and Crystal, two other members of the coven.
As Kate attempts to leave after growing uncomfortable, the women stop her and reveal that she had been given a drink laced with a drug. As Kate becomes dizzy, Persian tells her that her "baby" becomes "stronger" every time she kills a life inside her; potentially revealing her disdain for Kate having had terminated her unintentional pregnancies. Kate was then kept drugged and catatonic after a ritual was performed to make her pregnant, with Persian grooming Kate regularly. As Kate is being fed, Lily suggests that Kate have her drug dosage increased, only for Persian to resist out of fear the drugs would harm the baby. Dr. Harding arrived shortly afterwards, fighting with the women due to not being able to take off work for the pregnancy and snapping at Lily for yelling at Kate for knocking over a bowl.
Later on, Kate attempted to escape after being caught by Dr. Harding making a 911 call on her cell phone, only to go into labor after being shoved to the ground by Lily. The women began preparing to deliver Kate's baby, with Persian coldly telling the agonized Kate that it would be easier if she accepted her fate. The women were later horrified when a grown human arm emerged from Kate, with the film ending without revealing the fates of the coven or Kate.
