why did Lisa hit Georgina?


I must have missed something but why did Lisa hit Georgina when they walked into the doctor's office?

reply

I think it was because Georgina was careless, turning on the lights (they could have been seen by the guards or nurses still walking around at night), and Lisa was a very aggressive person, so her first instinct was to lash out.

At least that's what I always thought!

Like the above poster stated it was because she was afraid someone would see them. But, the scene also shows Lisa's controlling personality. Most people would just say "turn off the light." Not lash out and smack a fellow human being and think nothing of it.

Why did Lisa do a lot of the stuff we see her do? She was just that sort of gal, I guess.🐭
