In 'Escape,' the more intricate details of Kaylee and Carlos' estrangement are explored, as we learn of their ill-advised marriage while still young. Following on from 'Whisper' and 'Lucas', new information comes to light when Kaylee runs away from home and finds taking off with her childhood sweetheart without her parents' knowledge was not at all like what she had been promised. After taking on new work in a nearby town, her husband turns abusive and unnecessarily violent towards Kaylee. The woman is afraid of his current lifestyle, but even when giving birth to a daughter and starting a family, she is scared of what Carlos might decide to do to her. For reasons beyond her own comprehension, Kaylee makes the horrible decision to ascertain Britney's safety, placing the girl's welfare far before her own life! The inexperienced mother soon takes the child away and is then left to deal with Carlos' anger alone. Despite her misgivings, Kaylee knows that she has done the right thing in sending her precious daughter away, instinctively believing that Britney has escaped from a world of only pain and constant terror. When Carlos' treatment of her only goes from bad to worse, Kaylee leaves the small cottage and goes in search of her treasured daughter. Will she be able to find her, unknowing which direction Britney had gone? And would Kaylee ever be reunited with her own beloved parents anywhere upon her travels? Filled with so many questions and doubts, she sets off to get the answers. But not far behind her comes Carlos… her husband is looking for forgiveness and second chances. But has the man truly changed?
