She’s a mark, plain and simple. It’s obvious when she was a wee lass in 2005 she was watching the Rey/Eddie feud featuring Dom and developed a crush on the boy. That’s why she bought his toy (

This isn’t normal; this isn’t “I’m pretending to be someone’s girlfriend for a role” or even “girlfriend” behavior; this is obsessive fangirl behavior, and out of character for the “manipulating Dom against Rey with sex” angle they were doing. I legit think Dom doesn’t want her, but she seems really into him, partly because she wants to be a Mysterio. Kinda sad.
