I think it's about a housewife wanting to do something different from her everyday, predictable routine. Obviously, holding up people is exciting and unpredictable, and it gets your adrenaline pumping. She probably hasn't had many super exciting moments, or hasn't been paid much attention to. Her job is to clean, cook, take care of kids, etc., but she wants so much more than that. She wants attention, and she took it to the extreme by holding up people and getting on the news.
