Maureen Coyle was a novitiate to become a Catholic nun. As she grew closer to taking her final vows she began to question her relationship to god and religion in general. This was triggered mostly by sexual feelings she was having trouble denying herself. She intended to kill herself by throwing herself from the tower at her convent but she was saved by Sister Margaret. Later that week, Norman and Maureen went on a date. Norman had such strong feelings for her that he feared for her safety from his Mother side. He refused to have a physical relationship with her.
