At 15 years old, she bet on herself.

ZachHOST

karma will come back to him and it will fight him in a big, big way.
DrexHOST
So maybe not right now or even six months, but maybe a year from now, she's going to hear a story about like, oh, did you hear Scott?
KaraHOST
That's a long time to wait for some kind of revenge.
KaraHOST
And doesn't his wife deserve to know what her husband is doing when he's not around? Especially if she's sitting at home, eight months pregnant, getting ready to have a baby.
