“You should be grateful a lady has even come to such an undesirable place.”
Araminta GunSophie BaekS4 · E8 · 00:07:41
What it sounds like
Sophie should appreciate that a respectable lady has visited a disreputable place.
What it really means
“Araminta treats Sophie as beneath her, presenting her own visit as an act of generosity Sophie has no right to expect.”
Said today
“You should be grateful I bothered to visit you in a dump like this.”
What was happening
Araminta says this while visiting Sophie in jail, then claims she has come to help. The remark establishes their class imbalance before Araminta offers a confession as a way to avoid trial and humiliation.
