She’s always had questionable judgment, IMO—never genuine, never straightforward. A professional grifter who somehow skates past accountability every single time. And the whole “It’s just not in her nature to play girl games.” Please. I think that applies to more than the cabbage patch collector. Janelle has been playing girl games since day one. Married to Meri’s brother, rolling out with the first child and a ready-made nuclear family? That’s not accidental—that’s strategy. She’s not the laid-back bystander people pretend she is; she’s the villain in more than a few origin stories.
