Emma’s first marriage was to an abusive man. After she left him, she tells Jenny, she followed a man from Salt Lake City to Rexburg, Idaho, because she thought he was “really nice.” But he turned out to be not a good guy. Finally, she marries Brannon, who also has an abusive history. What in her background leads Emma into one abusive relationship after another? Is she doomed to keep repeating that pattern?
Jenny has seen her father’s uncontrolled anger, and even episodes of violence. Is she in any way complicit in Brannon’s crimes? Does she have a responsibility to warn Emma, or is she simply too young to be accountable?
