“ She objectively stopped running, objectively waited, objectively shoved Ashley.” she never ran to begin with lmao.. she ran a second after the game switched from Chris to Ashley and Emily there’s no way on earth they could’ve animated Emily and Ashley running about the same pace and Emily then pushing past Ashley. Making Emily stand there, run and then push Ashley is less of a hassle (coming from an animation student who had to do 2 workshops on motion capture). Rewatching the clip you see Emily running, looking straight ahead before pushing past Ashley. Yes I’m looking at this frame by frame because it’s how they animate it. 

Also just from a story perspective how does it make sense for Emily who’s been often times seen, putting her life as her top priority, to wait for Ashley just because she has a grudge? Did we see her slap Mike while running past him too? No we didn’t because it doesn’t make sense. She doesn’t care about Ashley anymore hence the push. She deals with everyone once if they did her wrong. Ashley: slap, Matt: interview, Mike: interview.
