I give her the benefit of doubt.

It is possible that she planned the deal, but it is also possible that she didn't. Her boyfriend has Nancy's knee jobbed. She finds out, but doesn't turn on her boyfriend. I can't say I fault her for that. If that's what really happened, then she got a really really shitty deal. She'd be bitter and that shows.

Or maybe she planned the whole thing and she is trailer trash through and through.

That broken laces thing is true. She went out there, tried to skate, and without leaving the ice she showed the judges a broken lace. They let her re-lace it. By that time she was an emotional wreck and skated her worst. But I have to question how she didn't have her skates laced and ready to go FOR THE OLYMPICS. That's like a MLB player who doesn't check out his cleats, bat, and glove before the world series. That just doesn't happen.
