Non solo la donna si è messa a gironzolare attorno a James, il suo ex marito, ma le ha pure fatto capire di essere a conoscenza di certi dettagli poco lusinghieri sul suo passato e non si è trattenuta dal parlarne in giro. Inoltre, tra i suoi pazienti c'è Gwen Simple, che Agatha sospetta fortemente di essere stata complice in un omicidio.

Bender and sociologist Alex Hanna make clear, is “no,” “they wish,” “LOL,” and “definitely not.” This kind of thinking is a symptom of a phenomenon known as “AI hype.”
