Danny and His Parents Fighting

Danny is physically present for one fight and in earshot for another. The fights Wendy and Jack have are primarily around Danny and then turn into leaving the hotel because of Danny, and the harm that’s already caused him.

In No.45 Danny is held by Wendy as she screams at Jackk for causing Danny’s bruises.

In No.50, Jack screams at Wendy for letting her “fuck up his life”, sneering at Danny’s door as he storms out.
