Grand Master Mario wrote: At the story's conclusion, The Boss willingly lays down her life and is shot by Snake, who returns to the states to find that The Boss was a double-agent all along, having been ordered to sneak into Volgin's unit and steal back the Philosopher's Legacy. The plan went sour after Volgin nuked the Shagahod laboratory, blowing the CIA's cover and forcing them into plausible denial mode, declaring The Boss a rogue agent. Snake is devastated by the casualness of how The Boss was used and thrown away, and he immediately resigns in protest.\

The Villain in Name Only variant; even though she's one of the game's main antagonists, she's strangely kind and compassionate. This is because she turns out to be a Hero Antagonist. She's only an "enemy" because the U.S. Government essentially screwed her over after her fake defection backfired due to Volgin and presumably the CIA's influence. It's also worth pointing out that, despite the many clashing personalities and agendas in Snake Eater, she's the only person that everyone respects (in Volgin's case, it's more due to fear, but considering that he's Ax-Crazy, that's still saying something). this is from the tv tropes pages just in case you are woundering why she is not a cm on thier​ Yeah, I added that in, but then I learned what she was really like and actually paid attention to the dialogue, unlike you.

And honestly, had I been Kojima, I'd do the same things he did with the game, and then I'd say she's just as much of a monster as Volgin.
