Their Eye's Were Watching God ~ Important Scene 2

The scene where Janie and Joe get into a big fight in the store is an important scene. It sets the picture for how the two stop getting along and begin to fight and their once loving relationship is gone. It shows that Janie finally got up the courage to tell Joe that she was sick of the things he made her do. She didn't want to have to listen to him anymore because he didn't do anything for her. At this point she was so angry she didn't care who heard or how embarrassed she would make him, because she had so much anger within her, that she just couldn't take it anymore. Joe was so angry for what Janie had done that he turned around and hit her right infront of everyone. From that point on Janie and Joe stopped sleeping in the same room, stopped eating the same meals and rarely talked unless it was in argument.
