Lily is my new hero.
I knew since the HOTs party that she was out of Quinn's league with their brief casual exchange, but I didn't expect this. She is immune to Quinn's bullying because Lily is the "real deal". She's a stripper, so Quinn's shame-games are meaningless, and she appears to be formidably insightful. Quinn can't shame her, embarrass her or threaten her. Lily isn't intimidated or impressed by her. She derails every attempt at Quinn's bullying in the two scenes she has shared with Quinn so far. Quinn has nothing Lily wants and I love that Quinn has no idea how to deal with a woman who isn't impressed with her. Classic study of how to deal with a bully.
Quinn has a lot on her plate but I wouldn't be surprised if she tries to "get" Lily somehow. Quinn is pretty petty. But I suspect Lily would remain effectively immune to Quinn's crap.
Other than Doc taking the effort of writing that scene between the two, I wouldn't be surprised if the scene doesn't really go anywhere in the story. I suspect it was simply to give the Player a chance to see Quinn against the ropes, since Quinn is seen struggling though much of the episode, setting the tone for Quinn in the Episode. Is Lily an untouchable antagonist for Quinn, or was it just an emotional theme to set the backdrop for Quinn's overall problems?
