Love-Obstructing Parents
 John's Lily / int_3498cb66
comment
Love-Obstructing Parents: Mary Alfrick's father and stepmother try to stop her from marrying John so she can work around the house and take care of her younger half-siblings. It doesn't make any difference - after John and Mary break up, Mary spends fifteen months working at an orphanage. Nine-year-old Lizzie, the oldest of her half-siblings, mostly takes over her role.

comment
Break-Up/Make-Up Scenario: When Lily is six, John forbids her from going to Carsham Fair because he knows she comes from a higher background than anyone else in Markwood and wants to protect her from bad influences. John's fiancée Mary's stepmother, Mrs. Alfrick, takes Lily to the fair anyway. The two kidnappers recognise her, lure her away from the others, and grab her. When John finds out, he thinks Mary took Lily to the fair and breaks off the engagement, and Mary is too proud to correct him. Lily is rescued the next day when the kidnappers briefly leave her alone at the train station and Mr. and Mrs. Bland recognise her and take her back to Markwood, but John and Mary don't mend their relationship until fifteen months later, when Mary thinks John's mother is dying.

comment
Orphan's Plot Trinket: Lily wears a locket engraved with the letter L that contains a lock of dark hair from her dead mother. When Lily is six, the kidnappers see her at Carsham Fair and recognise the locket, and when her biological father comes to town and recognizes her a year later, the locket confirms her identity.

comment
Wicked Stepmother: Mary's mother died when she was a child, and her father remarried a woman who openly dislikes and constantly insults Mary while making her do most of the household work. She's also cruel to her biological children, whom she alternately spoils and abuses.
