LOL wow!!! LOL people are so stupid for mistreating others, and then allowing them to cook or whatever for them! Goes to show just how Un bright folks can be!

Power. No different than a rapist. Miss Millie wanted to put Sofia in her place and make sure she paid for her defiance everyday.

thats an interesting theory. its still kinda confusing tho. would u really feel safe around someone you had put away for 8 years?? she would have access to your food and sh!t. lol and the thing that really made me laugh was when miss millie said "i dont know her" when sofia suggested that her sister step in to be a maid. I was like "bitch you didnt know sofia either".

She felt Sofia's will was broken in prison and would not do any of those things for fear of going back.

Thats still risky though, it just speaks volumes about Miss Millie's intelligence.

Actually she just asked her to be her maid, than her husband slapped her and she hit him back. I don't think it's their fault that she was sent to jail. Maybe she felt sorry for her and wanted to help her with a job.
