The year is 1838, pan-handle of Nebraska. Colin is hunting with Caleb. A bison severely injures Colin as Caleb watches and Colin soon dies. The family is on the prairie with nobody around for miles, the closest settlement is a trading post 10 miles away.
After the family buries him, Susan wonders what is to become of them. Emma asks if they are going to return to St Louis. Carol turns and looks at Caleb and says that he is the man of the family now. Whatever Caleb decides, she and the girls will go with it.
Option 1: Should Colin be an abusive husband and father? Boys learn a lot from their fathers. He watches as his father has his way with the mom and sisters. Living by themselves, he thinks this is the way females should be treated?
Option 2: Should Colin be a caring and thoughtful husband and father? Caleb still learns from him on how to run a household.
Question 1: Using one or the other above, how should Caleb make the jump to fucking his mother and sisters? Option 1 might be easier.
