Plot[]
Lilly D. is found laying in the gutter by two boys. They decide to mess around with her, but a little girl named Natalie decides to save her from the two boys. Natalie then spends her allowance on the doll in order to repair her arm. Natalie and her grandfather then realize it use to belong to the original owner named Lilly Carbo. The doll maker then realizes that Lilly D. has turne good after Natalie's love to the doll like a little sister that she never had. She said that she fixed her arm and Natalie changes the doll's heart. The doll maker said that the doll used to be cold, cruel, manipulative, bad, sadistic, and vicious.
The next day, Natalie then finds a baby bird alone and had fallen off the tree. She decides to take it home; Natalie then shows the baby bird to Lilly D. and she gets jealous after she's nursing the bird back to health. Later that night, Lilly D. comes to life and tries to get the baby bird out of the shelf but fell, making Natalie and her grandfather wake up. Natalie doesn't know what happened and he says that things don't move by itself. When the doll maker is happily talking about Lilly D. being good, the other dolls she made then said that she put Natalie in danger and forced her to save her. The doll maker then agrees, however.
The next day, Natalie's neighbor was so happy that she saved the baby bird; they decide to give it a cage as a home. The doll maker is outside coming to the house but Lilly D. sees her and throws a fishbowl out of the window. Both of them don't know what happened. Later, Natalie then wants to get rid of Lilly D; after strange accidents begin to occurs in the house, Lilly D. spies on them and hides.
At midnight, Lilly D. comes to life and takes the baby bird to the bathroom, where she tries to drown it. Natalie wakes up, thinking it was her grandfather. But when her grandfather asks what's wrong, she hears him from his room and opens the bathroom door. She sees the bird alive in the water and rescues it. Natalie realizes Lilly D is alive but her grandfather says that a doll can't come to life. She runs downstairs looking for Lilly D. while her grandfather is at the top of the stairs in a wheelchair. Lilly D. comes behind him and pushes him down. Natalie briefly rushes to her grandfather's aid before confronting Lilly D in the kitchen all by herself. Natalie sees a wheelchair by the window in the kitchen and thinking it's Lilly D, she grabs a frying pan. Natalie bitterly states she loved Lilly D and turns the wheelchair around, but instead finds a lamp with the doll's hair. Behind her, Lilly D. is holding a butcher knife and Natalie knocks it out of her hand with the pan. She then yells at Lilly D, "Die!" and hits the doll in the head. Lilly D's head lands in a pot. As the other dolls of the doll maker sing a lullaby, Natalie covers the pot with the pan, killing Lilly D for good.
