In a flashback, we see Pennsatucky in bed with her boyfriend discussing a pregnancy she wants to terminate. She asks her boyfriend for a ride to the clinic, but he says he is busy. After Pennsatucky has her fifth abortion, a clinic staff member makes a snarky comment about giving her a punch card so she can have a sixth abortion for free. Pennsatucky, feeling disrespected, re-enters the clinic with a shotgun and kills the staff member. Pennsatucky has her first meeting with her Christian lawyer, and he says he can get her sentenced reduced if they argue that she is a crusader against abortion. The church and anti-abortion protesters cheer her on and pay for her lawyer fees. She has become an important pro-life figure; in reality the church is aware she has had many abortions and is just using the situation to promote their own ends.
