The boat trip they had in chapter 12
Edna's invititation to Robert for the boat trip is significant because it is the first time she actually steps over the line and acts in a completely impetuous manner. During the trip she acts recklessly, uncaring, and without propriety. She officially throws caution to the wind and leaves the fear of being a source of embarrassment or a topic of gossip behind her.
