The first time they showed her I could tell she looked like a spoiled, self centered, stuck up, rich kid. I was pretty much right. She was an idiot. John saved their hides and she makes him out to be a coward.
She was definitely playing it up. But after the second showing, I thought she was what she was supposed to be: a little girl who'd been told all her life that she was the next Queen. Of course she'd be stuck up and arrogant, she'd never had anyone starighten her out.
Look at her conversation with John when they were talking about a queen's obligations to herself versus her people. Perfect example.
At the end, even after what she'd been through, she still showed as being a little girl. It fit, to me, and so I ultimately have no beef with the episode.

I liked the conversation with John about obligations. She acted mature there. I mean it was a great episode, I just wish she could have played her character different.
But I'm not going to like everybody I see so I will stop ranting about her.
I guess it is hard to find child actors who can pull off complex characters, and she was complex, she was more then just a brat as Rodney found out... but yeah I just don't like kids on shows, any shows... they annoy me in real life why on earth would I want to watch them on TV?
Nope. I found her annoying, arrogant, and manipulative - the perfect example of a 13 year-old who's been catered to her entire life. She was a great foil for McKay. I particularly liked that it seemed to bother her that he didn't like her (before the hero worship).
I was really put off by the little brat. I thought there were places the bratiness came out a bit too much; to the point it's all I focused on and that caused me to enjoy this ep far less than I should have.
