However, while that makes a bit of more sense in retrospect, I think it reflects very poorly on the execution and the setup that I failed to notice that.
Initially I thought she was just morbidly curious about what he was writing and why, and I still think that probably played a role. The Stockholm syndrome (or just plain sympathy for the bastard, either works) bit came when I thought about it a bit more. I think her upbringing also gives her a bit of a "go with the flow" nature that played a role here... she only seems to get angry if she stews over things.

Not the first time my opinion of this show has changed after digesting things a bit, as I found episode one had too much to take in for just one viewing.

I'm not saying they should have shown him begging this episode. I'm saying they should have waited a few episodes to reintroduce him and then had the staff be at least a bit apprehensive or reluctant about it.
