She is leaving for Ball State months early in order to get a job and settled before her college freshman year.
Logan of course comes home for the summer from college and wants to make right his relationship with Emily. But is it too late? Emily has made a friend with her new co-worker Justin. Justin obviously knows Logan as he shows disdain for Logan. Justin is a bit of a mystery as Emily doesn’t seem to know him except from work.
Things get heated between Emily and Logan on many occasions. But as much as Emily wants to just be done with their relationship, she is still there for Logan’s family. Logan’s family accepts her as part of their family. So it’s no surprise when there is an accident and Emily goes with Logan to be there for him and his parents. There are a lot of miles put on cars going back and forth in Lather as we see Logan chasing after answers and to regain his relationship. Lather is about realizing what you have that is love, growing up, and what it takes to keep love.
