However, the creature that rises from the slab is clearly\u003ci\u003e not\u003c\/i\u003e Maura. This girl, who chooses the name “M,” doesn’t remember anything about Maura's life and just wants to be her own person. However, Frances expects M to pursue the same path that Maura had been on—applying to college to become a scientist—and continue the plans she and Maura shared. Hoping to trigger Maura’s memories, Frances surrounds M with the trappings of Maura’s past, but M wants nothing to do with Frances’ attempts to change her into something she’s not.\u003cbr\u003e In order to face the future, both Frances and M need to learn to listen and let go of Maura once and for all.
