I have been asked to post a thread which seeks to explain to the doubters why what we saw with Freddie was him coping with a Panic Attack. As an impartial observer, I would say that Bea was also exhibitting clear symptoms of heightened anxiety and was NOT being deliberately provocative, it was a stuation that developed and escalated.
Rodrigo was well meaning when he asked Bea to go and see Freddie again, but it was very unfortunate as both had withdrawn, as was the wisest strategy for both of them.
