The big turning point for Callie comes in Episode 4, "Old Wounds," when Shauna asks her daughter to get out of town with her for a bit so they can talk. In a remote area with nobody else around, Shauna admits to Callie that she did kill Adam, and that Jeff, who was blackmailing her, is involved with the entire thing as well.
Again, a teenage daughter hating her mom is nothing new, but it's in this pivotal moment that Callie fully realizes her mother's power. As both a teen and an adult, Shauna is not to be trifled with. There's a monologue in the season's third episode where she confronts someone to get her stolen minivan back that is completely horrifying and also shows off just how tough she really is. Shauna's not a simple stay-at-home mom, and when she comes clean to Callie, it solidifies their relationship. That same night, Callie offers to help cook dinner, warming up to both of her parents for the first time in the series — and now that she's finally allied with her family, the Sadeckis can really get stuff done.
