When you hear someone say they don't respect you, I'm pretty certain you're not going to like it that well. You may not like someone, but having no respect is harsh. Maybe that was not what Cracker meant, but the delivery and choice of words wasn't good. I get it that Alexis heard that and felt hurt.
It's petty drama anyway, but the fandom on Twitter/Instagram is going insane and extra over it making it difficult to enjoy the episodes sometimes
