So interesting how we can have very different viewpoints on that situation.
It was obvious to the player very quickly that there was something sus about Theresa's request from the start and the MC picked up on it as well, and could basically call her out with a "uh huh, well...let's do this I guess...".
I wouldn't call him a pushover at all, but rather sticking to his idea of "if someone is asking for help, I help", which at first, she was by asking him to go with her (yes, she lied), and then finally at the end of the club scene, he finally forces her to say it. It was a moving moment imo. I can't fault her for wanting to help her sister at all.
