That gives Daisy a moment of pause. She swirls the drink in her hand, but still doesn't drink from it, just watches the liquid twist. "Doing what needs to be done. Doesn't matter if it's ugly. You do what you have to. You don't back out just because it's not the nice answer. You don't roll over for anyone. You never become prey."
Someone's taking a very different perspective on the choices Crabb has made in her life than Crabb herself does. Daisy can see countless places where a willingness to just get her hands dirty would've solved problems far sooner. She sees her version of justice as naïve, for someone only a few years younger than herself. It adds up.
It just adds up to what is clearly a very specific, very skewed perspective.
