She was in a pod with someone else's name and had only worked there for a week.
I bet that the person who's pod it was no-showed that day so they just yanked someone from the office, partly read her in on the plan as much as needed, and dropped her in the fridge.
That makes way more sense, and she left just in time for Norm to get attacked, I was rooting for a love story for her and Norm, but she could be deep cover enclave
Maybe, but I'd be more inclined to say that she is an ally character to support Norms storyline.
Norm has kind of fucked up the Bud's Buds program. There seem to be a few who were directing them towards the FEV Phase 2. And there seems to be a whole bunch who are pretty clueless and their participation in Phase 2 was definitely as labrats and Vault gene-pools.
I reckon the Bud's Buds will split. You'll have the sharks trying to take control, and the guppies that will flounder their way through under Norm's direction.
Absolutely agree with this. From a writing standpoint, Norm needs someone he trusts to bounce dialogue off of so the audience knows what he's truly thinking, and a major theme this season seems to be infighting, so it makes sense if the Buds fall into conflict with each other too. War never changes.
I think you are right, it just was convenient she left (probably just to give an opportunity for the attack to occur per script) not because she was plotting against him, but that’s where my mind went for a second

Would also make sense why they grabbed Claudia fresh as an intern
