In episode 3223, I wrote that Tawny had a little bit of Sheila in her (her scheme to use Becky's baby was similar to Sheila taking Lauren's baby) and here she's advising Amber to threaten Rick with an expensive divorce which is _exactly_ what Sheila did to Eric when their marriage was falling apart. I also argued that Tawny was the devil on her daughter's shoulder and here Amber exorcises the devil: "You took an innocent girl and turned her into a monster!" Amber is basically saying she doesn't want to be a villain and the "division of labor" between her and her mother (see episode 3192) where Tawny comes up with and does all the truly bad stuff for Amber, means Tawny can take most of the blame and Amber can remain a Bad Girl who's not a Villain.
@annieo65278 ай бұрын
Yes! By getting rid of Tawny, Amber is trying to get rid of the evil within herself. Still some of what she is saying doesn't ring quite true - she talks about how what they did was so terrible, but this was _already_ true a year ago, and has been true every day since. And yet Amber is only realizing the error of her ways now that she doesn't have a choice. It would have been more convincing, from a redemption point of view, if Amber had come to this conclusion on her own, when she actually had a _choice_ to keep the secret and remain happily married to Rick, rather than it happening out of necessity when Becky had already told her that she was taking the baby back. As it is, Amber doesn't actually get to _sacrifice_ anything for the sake of what's right. She is only accepting the loss of what she's already lost - so she actually has nothing to lose by telling Rick the truth.

@@annieo6527 Absolutely. It's a very convenient moment of moral clarity for Amber and one she clearly wouldn't have had if Becky hadn't tried to reclaim her baby. I see Becky and Tawny as the two sides to Amber (angel and devil) pulling her in both directions and this time, Becky won out.

Given how much growth Amber shows in these episodes, it's a great pity that she regresses so significantly by the time the Thomas and then Liam storylines come around. She repeats the same mistakes, except without any real remorse or regret. It's a case of a character being completely reconceived for the sake of plot development. It's disappointing because, for a time, she does actually become a likeable and redeemable heroine.
