'''Mar-Beth Willow''' is one of [[Clarice Willow]]'s wives. She runs the Willow household. She is pregnant when [[Lacy Rand]] visits her family ([[CAP]]: "[[Rebirth]]").  


Mar-Beth reacts negatively to [[Amanda Graystone]]'s presence after Amanda is invited by Clarice to stay with them, believing that having the woman known in the Caprican media as "Terror Mom" with them risks drawing unwanted attention. Also, Mar--Beth is handling her pregnancy without a due date or any tests, trusting in her faith and her family, and she does not like Amanda's questioning of this {{CAP|False Labor}}. Mar-Beth eventually asks Amanda to leave, but is dissuaded after Amanda relates a story about her difficult experiences during and after her own pregnancy with her daughter [[Zoe Graystone]], and her admiration for Mar-Beth's family. Following this reconciliation, Mar-Beth gives birth to her baby at home; she allows Amanda to be involved in the delivery {{CAP|False Labor}}.

Following this reconciliation, Mar-Beth gives birth to her baby at home; she allows Amanda to be involved in the delivery ([[CAP]]: "[[False Labor]]").


Unknown to Mar-Beth and the rest of the Willow family, Amanda's true motivation for staying is to give information to Agent [[Jordan Duram]] of the [[Global Defense Department]], who suspects the family's involvement in [[Soldiers of the One]] terrorist activities. When Amanda's cover is threatened, Duram falsely reports that Mar-Beth is his confidential informant. The report is leaked back to Clarice, who secretly follows Mar-Beth to a secluded park and cuts her throat. [[Nestor Willow|Two]] of Mar-Beth's [[Olaf Willow|husbands]] collect Mar-Beth's body, which is later found in the [[Theoresos]] with her head and hands severed to prevent identification {{CAP|Blowback}}.

== Notes ==
* In the [[Podcast:Blowback|podcast commentary for "Blowback,"]] [[Tom Lieber]] notes that Mar-Beth is "very suspicious and very sharp." He explains that [[Amanda Graystone]] plays on Mar-Beth's own insecurities about [[Clarice Willow|Clarice]]'s past [[Opium|drug use]] in order to deflect this suspicion.<ref>[[Podcast:Blowback|Podcast for "Blowback"]], timestamp 05:44</ref>
