Talk:How the 'A' Stole Christmas/@comment-178.167.173.205-20140828135948

I don't know if Alison is a sociopath or not but remember when her dad asked her if she got "hurt" by her kidnapper and she told him that nothing like that happened. After he left she full on sobbed in her room with no one watching. It just strikes me that a textbook sociopath wouldnt really do that.

She wouldnt really feel pain for the loss of her mother (especially if she was responsible). She wouldn't be hurt by the fact her friends weren't talking to her. She would be worried for herself and annoyed but not so much that she would sob like that. A sociopath would have started making plans straight away instead of bothering her ass to cry about it.

I think she may be a person who possesses sociopathic tendencies but isn't actually a full on sociopath. I think rather than being a person who doesn't feel anything at all, she may be a person who feels too much and numbs herself in order to stop. Perhaps this is the result of a traumatic event in childhood that we will find out in the Christmas ep.  I'm not defending her at all just trying to work her out..
