I dunno, it is an interesting discussion though. I just have a different interpretation of Miranda than most people it seems.
Nothing wrong with different interpretations, as it does make for interesting discussion!

As far as the line you quoted, I interpret it as another instance of the light/dark dichotomy, with the light once again laying bare all of the problems and issues Miranda is trying to hide from herself ("her safety zone" being the darkness in which she tries to forget those problems).

We definitely both agree that her father "complicates things for her," anyway...
