I chose this scene because
this is when
Charlotte 87-90 really starts
to figure things out
and change. Before now she
has acted like
a spoiled child,
but now she
meets someone
who really
helps her see that
what she has understood to be the
norm before is possibly a big lie.
I am excited to see
what happens next. I have
a feeling that she
is about to make some true friends
among the crew with some men
I didnt think
were good guys before.
