Skye had to get the onions planted. Onions and garlic. It was time, past time, for them to be in the ground.Claudine and Felicia didn't seem to understand how important it was. If Skye didn't work, didn't give grow squash and potatoes and beans and onions, then there was no reason for her to be there. No reason for them to keep her safe.So she had to plant the onions right away no matter what.
