Elsa was a slut(spoilers)


She banged some cowboy with nice teeth and knew for a few days that got killed and she acted like it was her husband of 50 years with full of grief and tears for a whole episode nearly. Native Indian fella turns up and she’s over her last fella, banging him then declares her love for him in native Indian language. He then leaves and she’s then flirting with another cowboy fella. Fuck her she sucks

She also makes out with the Indian whilst hiding from a twisted but also in view of two cowboys. No way would white men be ok with a white woman doing that with an Indian.

I agree. The romance between her and the cowboy seemed alright. They had been on the road for a while, and we had enough scenes of their courtship. But the romance with the Indian came across as total sluttiness. She just met that guy, and she was still in mourning

I dunno if slut is the right word to describe it. In principle, it appears as if that gal falls in love extremely easy and forgets about prior romance and/or deaths of former lovers very quickly.

Can psychology explain this somehow? Abandonment issues combined with sociopathy?

It could also be just extremely crappy writing - lol

I'm voting for the latter. Curiously enough, the whole thing could have been fixed with 'a few months later' side note prior to the meet of the Indian.

Yeah, she got over her "loves" very quickly, 2 days at most. People are dying around her and all she does is flirt and sleep around. There's a tornado on top of them and all she thinks about is making out with the hot new guy she met just today. She's very unlikable.
