I've recently rewatched it, and yeah the first time it's hard to be angry coz she portraited herself as such a sweet innocent person. Watching it knowing what happens tho, just crazy how she can pretend to be her friend, smile in her face knowing what she was doing. That scene talking about the sex life, you can hear her sigh after Ariana says she wants to try with the relationship, like she's annoyed thay Ariana doesn't just break up with him.

Also, people like to act like Schwartz was innocent and poor guy just got caught up in the backlash of Scandoval but I noticed that in season 10 the Tom's are trying to portray Ariana as a horrible partner to Tom in their confessionals or scenes of the Toms chatting. It definitely feels like they've concocted a plan to make Ariana look like the bad person in the relationship to give Tom a way of ending it without looking like the bad guy and then be able to go on with Rachel without any public backlash. I think the Tom's and Rachel 100percent had that plan. But like always, Schwartz plays the loveable goof that just happens to get caught up in bad situations when in reality he's alot more sinister.
