Hahaha! Oh god, I forgot how bad Auntie E-Redux was.
Larian have really only themselves to blame. Encounter with Ethel (as well as a lot of other act1 stuff) could have been a nice, self-cointained adventure. And yet, act1 from the very beginning of EA was full of "just wait for the crazy repercussion of those events once you get to Baldur's Gate!" All those cliffhangers are an effective way of building hype for the final product, but one can't help but think that they have written themselves into a corner with a whole ton of unrealistic promises.
