Lisbeth's Visit to Mom

After a roller coaster ride through a murder/missing case, saving Mikael's life and watching the death of Martin take place, Lisbeth went to visit her mother for the first time ever. I think for person to endure that much in a short amount of time causes one to step back and take a deep breath. Lisbeth watched as Martin died just as she watched her own father die. It was a flashback for her that had drawn her to seek her mother's words. And I think that's what Lisbeth did, she realized how precious life is. Between Mikael's near death experience the pain that Harriet's family has for her missing, and the death of Martin really set in for her. Lisbeth's mother had not seen her in some time. She asked if she had children or a man. Lisbeth told her that there was a man, referring to Mikael since she had fallen for the journalist. Her mother apologizes and admits the man she had chosen as a husband and father to Lisbeth was the wrong choice and it is her fault. Lisbeth's mother said "it is this reason that you hurt Lisbeth".
