OK SO IMAGINE THIS.

Mary's father is a drunk. An awful drunk. Jamie is not enough to hold Mary home. Arthur, during their many fights, tells her "Well you always can run with us."

And in this universe she does.

And she changes, she hardens, she learns how to shoot a gun and how to properlylisten to Grimshaw. She drinks with Karen, plays dominoes with Tilly and reads with Mary-Beth.

She helps Sadie to get back on her feet.

She understands Molly.

Abigail cries on her shoulder when John leaves.

She and Arthur stay together and maybe, in the end, the love they share is stronger than everything that held Arthur with the gang.

Maybe they tail right after John and Abigail. Or maybe they go up north with the Wapiti. Maybe they went to Mexico. Maybe they got so lost no one ever found them again.

But on the other side is Jamie. Jamie, who lost the sight of the good for the world, who was the one to witness his father get drunk again and again, to sell everything that was left of not only his mother but also his sister.

Who left him.

They all left him, by death, by running away, by letting their soul be drowned in alcohol.

And it's not the cult that drags Jamie away, it's his own heart being abandoned, deciding it will never happen again.

How does a young boy survive in this day and age?

By learning how to shoot a gun.

How does young man make money?

By picking up job postings everywhere he can.

And how does a man commit revenge on his sister, who he loves dearly but who run away with a gang?

By becoming a bounty hunter.
