In this pre-episode chat of SWBY, hosts Dr. Amelia Haines and Janet Evans dive deep into the harrowing subject of escaping domestic violence. This episode sheds light on not just the primary victims but also the often-overlooked secondary victims—the children. Amelia and Janet engage in a powerful discussion exploring the intricacies and pervasive effects of domestic violence, emphasizing the critical need to protect and support all affected parties.

Amelia and Janet underline the alarming statistics around domestic violence, particularly highlighting men's violence against women while acknowledging other dynamics in abusive relationships. With insights from Justine, a dedicated psychologist, the discussion broadens to the psychological damage inflicted on children who witness or are victims of domestic violence. This episode aims to bring awareness and prompt societal change towards a safer future for those trapped in abusive environments.
