... actually gotta facepalm at some of these comments.
She's been indoctrinated, that much is obvious. You can't be a follower of Friends unless you are. When it was revealed she was lying, I was impressed. Some of the other followers were like mindless zombies, and while she is also not in her right mind she can still pull off a huge lie. And she's still with that guy! XD (But then again, a while back there was a guy from the Friendship party who helped the granny - follows like him, who appear kind and free willed, are probably the ones to draw in new people and support. The power of "Friends" is scary!
I was actually thinking she might be lying because the situation would be too easy to fix (save her father and all good), but damn didn't expect to be right about it!!
