Part Two--Ellyn's plan to get Jameson away from Maggie falls through because of Chuck's violent temper. He is now on the run in the small southern town where they live. The police are looking for him, but he cannot seem to let go of a long ago-ended relationship with his ex-wife, Maggie. She has moved on, ready to marry her fiance, Jameson, but Chuck refuses to let her live her life with this man who loves her. He resorts to violence (he was violent in their marriage) to try to keep her: stalking her, kidnapping her, and shooting members of her family, thinking these tactics will get him what he wants. He believes she still “belongs” to him. He refuses to let go.
