That he understands what she’s doing isn’t to throw away the sacrifice he made for them - for her - but because she has had everything taken away from her - including him - and not doing anything is killing her inside. She is a fighter. She always has been. And this is something that she has to fight for - her family is being threatened and torn apart and she can’t sit back and let that happen anymore. She has to fight back.
