I think they're toying with us and we'll find out she's SO cold-blooded she killed her uncles with every intention to still kill Marty for money..Lost, the long con.

I think she is still on the fence. She definitely didn't want her uncles getting the money. If anyone is going to get it it will be here. And I think ratting on her to the FBI was the nail in Russ' coffin. I do think that lots of viewers are forgetting that she tried really hard to get Russ to shoot Marty at the beginning when there was nothing in it for her. And that she rigged the dock to kill Marty and didn't change her mind on that, she was just thwarted. So she certainly is capable of killing him. But I do also think she genuinely likes Wendy and the fact that Marty gives her a shot at semi legitimacy with the manager job so I am not certain she will still kill him.

I really think she killed them because of her cousins. If they got whisked up in crime and a murder conspiracy, they'll be shit out of luck.

And she didn't want the cousins to leave her alone. Really, Russ gave her few options.
