Doubt very much she really believes in his "innocence".Observing Olivia's 'performance'/'taking on' the Court procedure (at the Committal), and displaying her belief in her 'right to use the forum' to communicate with her brother because she somehow believes in his innocence (interesting how she can be so sure!) ..... makes me think that she will be continuing to expound her belief in any way possible! She certainly wouldn't be counting on being left with 'egg on her face'. HOW CAN YOU BE SO SURE OLIVIA? Why haven't you provided this evidence already? So, so hard for you to believe otherwise ...... we know that!
But I believe she wants to believe the "impeccable" family name can be upheld........Despite the odds. That "impeccable" family name holds the keys to a great future.
Ever heard of re-writing history to suit?
OW apparently is an accomplished public speaker. The subject matter is irrelevant. Getting the message across is very relevant. (Even if it's a lie.)
