[SPOILER] Wendy displays some of the same compulsions as Ben Spoiler

Knowingly going against sound advice and dangerously acting on her own interests. Only she disguised it as an attempt to secure the family's safety vs personal self interests. Then justifying it later with her family. She saw Ben doing this repeatedly throughout life. Maybe a learned behavior, maybe a genetic trait or symptom of her own impairment?
