      She did.
      She told them what she knew about her girlfriend.
      She was given more freedom, including going to school.
      She made LGBTQ+ friends, and found a “safe” classroom.
      One of her friends called a lawyer friend he had.
      The lawyer friend agreed to help alex, but one day they talked a few minutes too long, she was a few minutes late to class.
      The school told the “foster parents,” who went back to punishing her, not allowing her to go back to school.
      A few days later, she was finally able to escape, made her way to school, and started getting help.

    what would they do to her if she didn't listen? As in, what prevented her from acting out more in rebellion to what I presume is some sort of 'therapy' session 'forced on her' by I'm guessing her parents? _(I mean, if she already mentioned that if it was her choice she wouldn't be there, then what is holding her back from retaliating with saying something as simple as, "...and if I don't wear it, then what?" or is that just something more obvious and one would learn as a result of the character development which I am missing the context of?)_ Because, there's a "context" box above the Title of this video and it only told me about how conversation therapy is a discredited practice if it involves convincing someone to change their gender identity and doesn't give actual *context* about the characters such as why they're explaining themselves to these 2, who i initially thought were the parents but as it turns out was not; or what makes this scene so powerful when it seems the oppressors have come out victorious against the oppressed?
