Added some clarification because to say there are no wolves on Ireland anymore is not entirely accurate . Native wolves may be exterminated on the island, but there are still captive wolves at the Dublin Zoo and the Wild Ireland nature reserve.

* Robyn telling Mebh to take the pack and leave the forest, despite Mebh's tearful imploring that Robyn promised to help her. Robyn is tell Mebh this because she made a promise to Moll to make sure her daughter was safe, but it's still a sad and painful scene since Mebh doesn't understand why Robyn isn't helping her find her mother like she promised. Gripped with anger and grief at essentially being betrayed, Mebh takes the flower Robyn gave her [[RuleOfSymbolism which represents their friendship]] and crushes it in her hand before angrily throwing it away and running off.

* Before Moll's execution, poor Mebh tries to reach out to her caged wolf-mother as she sadly yelps "Mammy!" All she can do is helplessly reach into the cage and pet the snout of her worried mother before she's forced to leave. It doesn't help that in the background, the townsfolk are laughing at this whole thing, [[InnocentlyInsensitive mistaking this whole act as a stage comedy since they think Mebh's joking by calling the wolf her mother]].

* Mebh talking about Robyn with her mother's [[ConverseWithTheUnconscious unconscious human body]]; at first she happily talks about the new friend she made, but soon she's tearing up and asking her mother where she is as if she could respond. Beneath Mebh's boisterous exterior, she deeply misses her mother's actual presence and fears being alone. All she can do is tearfully snuggle up to her mother before she turns in for the night and tries singing herself to sleep.
