    I wonder if she could be autistic

    I wonder if her sexy vacant persona isn't a coverup for Asperger's or something in the autism spectrum. I did that when I was in high school. I found out that if you're attractive enough, people will overlook a lack of social skills. Attractiveness can be a social skill in and of itself.

    That could explain her remarkable cluelessness, her astounding lack of social awareness, and it would also explain why so many people enjoy bullying her verbally in public.

    It could also explain why Sheriff Baca is so relentlessly adamant that she has a serious problem that Lynwood wasn't equipped to deal with.

    Her meltdown seems severe enough to be autistic rage.

    I wonder what's really going behind the scenes.
