Isaac snaps one day and decides to call it quits not before telling Mariah how much he despises her and how she is the worst human being he ever had the displeasure of meeting in this God forsaken world and a long overdue "Fuck you" , and he simply walks away to work somewhere else more relaxing no matter how small, even cleaning latrines would be fine as long as Mariah isn't there. How would Mariah react? Would she get her act together?
I mean she'd beat his ass for the insult and betrayal but she'd also be prideful enough to let him go so she doesn't come off as "desparate". The act itself WILL give her pause to consider after a loooong while though but she won't necessarily change because not enough guilt.
Mariah only starts to change in Refrain because she gets to face how her actions actively screwed him over and gets a massive dose of guilt because the self-aware part of her finally kicks in and wonders why someone like her gets a second chance to correct her life whereas he never did
