It seems that the narrative is a bit messy and there are too many threads, but if you think about it, in fact, all the lines are projections of the heroine's own relationship. Sydney and Sam are her and her husband before marriage, the old lady and daughter are her mother and her, only Allison This line has not been fully developed yet, and I probably wanted to leave it to the second season, but unfortunately there is no more.
All the struggles of the heroine are to find a kind of self-identity, and the self repressed by social norms is silently and secretly breaking through. So she is very tolerant of her daughter's gender confusion, because it's not just a matter of gender orientation, but whether someone recognizes you and supports you when you show that you don't agree with traditional social norms, obviously when the heroine was young Having had a negative experience with these feelings, it seems that the criticism should come from her mother. So in the end, the heroine chose to marry her husband to surrender and naturalize, but her unrecognized and unsatisfied true self is always just around the corner.
She is a free soul like Gypsy, afraid of bondage and commitment, but also afraid of being abandoned by mainstream society, so she can only choose marriage.
