And that's EXACTLY why I like SR so much! Laura is not a stupid bimbo - none of the women in SR are.
Laura is actually (so far) trying to do the right thing, but the result is not always what she imagined.
She's put into impossible situations with no way out, having to endure the humiliation.
On top of that she's slowly beginning to show signs of corruption and that's forcing her to rationalize her choices.
I think I have a pretty good idea what's going on in the latest preview picture, and I think that's really going to challenge her moral limits, such as they are right now.
