I said somewhere - I think to thawrecka (who unearthed a terrifying handful of pro-West quotes from morons people) - that I did find her initial reaction somewhat plausible, but would expect her to come down hard on him a short while later when her emotions settled down a bit. Unfortunately, I have no expectation this will happen. And yeah, it does reflect really badly on their writing for her. (I thought they'd been doing really well so far otherwise, with her trying to be sensible and fit in unobtrusively at the new school, but at the same time not being Super-Mature Teenager who acts in the best possible manner all the time. The confrontation with the cheerleaders, I'm thinking of particularly).
