Oh man, that mother is just so... despicable. Her first concern should've been Lance's health, but to not even bring it up? I suppose, seeing him alive and well could've brushed such dialogue away in her head, but I'm guessing even if he showed up with a limp, she would've been disappointed that he couldn't walk a mere limp off. I can understand still wanting the love of his parents, and I can certainly understand the contradiction in his head - wanting to stand up for Elly, but not wanting his mother to be disappointed in him - leading to him simply idling by and doing nothing. I'm sure one day Lance will grow strong enough to rebuke her, and to protect Elly, but that day clearly isn't today. 😭
