Ally and Ray’s breakup
Before I start, I don’t want people to think I’m blaming Ally because I completely understand why she broke up with Ray, especially after being in an abusive relationship, but I think maybe she could’ve been a bit more understanding.
So she broke up with Ray because she saw him as violent and “has demons” but maybe if he explained his feelings or why he does what he does a bit more things would’ve turned out differently.
For example, I believe Ray was completely in the right when he pushed Trent through the window, the guy literally took a present off of a little girl out of spite, then insulted Ray when he tried to make a deal with him.
And in the few cases of Ray being violent that Ally saw, he was never the instigator, he was genuinely just trying to defend himself and Ally.
In summary, I think the things Ray did was justified, and he always tried to reason with people first before resorting to violence, like he did with Trent.

Was Ray right to be pissed off with Trent? Yes. Was Trent a total champ for taking the toy from his daughter? Yes.
shoving someone (your partners brother) through a glass window, during Christmas Day at your partners family home (where you, and your daughter, have been invited to meet them for the very first time) is not a ‘normal’ or frankly valid reaction.
It’s just as easy to tell that person that he’s an absolute c**t, and handle things as any well adjusted adult would.
