This picture shows the group all together, looking very happy, the image is warm and friendly. It shows that everyone is together in unity and looks a lot like a slumber party. They seem to be relaxed and happy, making it seem a safe place to be.

This image shows how much Sarah has changed. She’s gone from a broken, emotional character and is now an aggressive woman, covered in blood and holding an axe. She knows the only way she is going to survive is if she becomes as bad and aggressive as the things that are trying to kill her.

This picture shows that there is something going on between Juno and Sarah’s husband. This is as they’re very close, touching hands and she’s looking very happy. She’s attempting to be seductive and flirting with him.
