Originally posted by Mamiwata: She was really curious about the world (the World's Fair, eavesdropping on the conversation and looking up 'capitalism'), but also saw how limited things were for her. She was really happy with her boyfriend, and loved having her own place (they made sure to show her dusting the drapes and sweeping the carpet). She turned him down, afraid of what would happen 'out there' in California, so when it came down to it, she shut her self away from the wider world that she wanted. She goes to the movie and sees that her ex has what he wanted (maybe she even watched the movie). Then she comes home, depressed and finds that the one space she had, her apartment (which he made possible), wasn't even hers anymore. And she lost it.
