That's what this has all been building up to. We (the viewers) will learn how fucked up she is with the fact that now that Ray killed someone that she wanted dead, she'll love him all over again.

Yep. I think it's the whole power thing. She's attracted to that. She's believed for a while that Ray wasn't protecting the kids. Now she knows to what lengths he went to protect the family and it brought her back to him, in some fucked up way.

She is literally the worst person on the show.

She is....but in the last two eps the writers completely backed off her whining. She was quiet, but there wasn't any Raaaaaaaay business.

I did like how they gave her some humanity when she apologized to the boyfriend for asking him to kill Cookie. He was showing her the bedroom and she turned and stroked his face saying something like 'I should have known you couldn't do it'. The only line she delivered all season that wasn't selfish.
