Introducing into the new environment makes the boys uneasy and they begin showing destructive and violent behavior. The cause of their violence has not been confirmed, but the lack of father's image in Toby and Jim's life is undoubtedly a factor. In this boy 's life, Tobii grew up without the image of his father. The only person close to the image of his father is Roy who is his mother's boyfriend and he is undergoing Toby's spiritual abuse. However, Toby was a good girl, when he arrived at Utah 's new home he began to show destructive behavior.

This is because everyone thinks he is an innocent little boy.
