Sally advanced into her teenage years with the addition of a new female influence in her life, her step-grandmother Pauline Francis. In the wake of the Richard Speck student nurse murders in Chicago, Sally spent a harrowing night with Pauline, being terrified and titillated by Pauline’s gruesome obsession with the grizzly events -- and eventually drugged to sleep by her. Sally continued to buck authority, pushing against Don’s versions of the truth about his past life while becoming closer with young stepmother, Megan. A clandestine meeting with Glen Bishop ended with Sally getting her period and fleeing home to Betty.
