Willa feels like she's following well, but she did think she was before, and then she still managed to get herself tied up somehow. In front of everyone, as usual.
Though in retrospect she thinks she had it but there was just a lot of confusion about before-chances priors and some miscommunication? But overall she's happy that this particular weird mess of logic is going to stay away from SCIENCE!
She doesn't know it well enough to feel protective of it yet, but she expects she will. Except that expecting yourself to be convinced of something in the future doesn't make any sense. So she might as well feel protective of it already.
