Does your past define you? How much of what a person has been through determines who he is at the moment? Do certain things weigh more heavily than others?

Did it surprise you to learn that he burned down the mill? Why do you think he did it? What about Black Mary? How do all of her past relationships with men affect the way she deals with them now?
