She began to realize after she has her daughter he would stay gone all the time, he was having and affair. She confronted him about it one night and he hit her. From then on out he would abuse her regularly. When she tried to leave he threatened to kill her. Finally one night she makes it, her and her daughter Gracie leave.

Realizing that she had had enough Slim starts training to be able to defend herself incase he finds her again. She then tracks down her husband Mitch and finds his new place.
