Joyce lived in New Zealand with her husband, a wealthy man named Neville. Joyce was not happily married, with her husband saving all his money and getting drunk at the pub before going home to pass out every Friday night.
One Friday night in 1982, Neville brought home Lefty Munroe, a man he befriended at the pub. When Neville had passed out, Joyce had sex with Lefty.
Lefty later returned with Ted West and broke into Neville's house in an attempt to rob his money. The pair were caught by Neville, but Joyce knocked him out and helped them find the money in exchange for a 50% cut. Joyce traveled back to Henderson, Auckland with them, where she planned to marry a man named Hong and use Neville's money to start many great businesses.
