There's a story I heard from someone that in the Ramayana, Manthara was struck by Rama as a child and she held this rather lowly grudge against him for a number of years and used it against him to persuade Kaikeyi to send him away much later. I know you probably don't get this story; too oriental, but it was used to teach me to be good to the maids and the cleaning staff when I was a child.
