“... figure I’ll open a bottle of wine, apologize… maybe we’ll get naked, be like old times” (1059). This shows that a big reason why Vernon even invited Lucy was to have sex with her, he didn’t want her to love him or care for him, he just wanted the pleasure of getting together with someone and having sex with them. He views Lucy as just a piece of meat that he loves so much to force Lucy to eat it. This can be why Lucy quit eating meat not just to show she’s going to change but also since she knew or found out that Vernon just viewed her as that, a piece of meat that he wants, so she connected it to dark pasts with Vernon and ended up becoming a vegetarian for that
