Stella recommends a book to Pablo describing it as being "a good book about women". The book is a 1973 novel called "Fear of Flying" by Erica Jong. The book is about a 29 year-old woman named Isadora Wing, an author of erotic poetry who goes on a trip to Vienna with her husband, whom she has began to see as distant and boring. This leads her to indulge in her fantasy of having a purely sexual relationship with another man. The subject matter of the novel made it rather controversial at its time for its portrayal of female sexuality, namely the book's message of encouraging women to break away from the monogamous relationship of marriage, and its message about women's enjoyment of sex (or lack thereof) as most men at the time rarely knew how to give a woman an orgasm, or they knew how but didn't care; the book mentioning the fact that in 1970 less than 20% of women under the age of 35 reported being given an orgasm by a male partner. As such it became a popular book during the feminism and sexual revolution movements of the 1970's.

Jahfree Neema was convicted of kidnapping in the second degree for taking his daughter to prevent her mother from leaving the country with her. However New York law states that a parent (who doesn't have legal custody) abducting a child just to gain control of them is not guilty of kidnapping. They are instead guilty of the much lesser crime of custodial interference, the difference being kidnapping in the second degree is a class B felony (5-25 year sentence), whereas custodial interference in the second degree is a class A misdemeanor (one year jail time max) and custodial interference in the first degree is a class E felony (1-4 year sentence). Custodial interference becomes first degree if the child is either taken across state lines or is put in circumstances that puts the child's safety or health at risk.
