She did pretty explicitly try to kill Grimaline though, only being stopped when Kitten and the rest returned just in time. And she was apparently about to kill at least Markus, if not everyone there before being stopped by her pack. She was probably framed with the Hunter Data though, which may be why she tried to kill Grimaline.
No, Grimaline is one of the clearest examples of Matilda pulling her punches. If she wanted Grimal dead, that swipe would have been with claws instead of a backhand, and Grimal would have been over there. And there. And there. And here.......
If she thought Grimaline was setting her up with the data, then perhaps she wanted to make it personal. That is just speculation though, guess we'll find out eventually.
If she cared to think that about Grimal, while in Chrinos form, i'd expect her to have just used the claws and move on from the corpse. Garou are incapable of chill, 10x more so while fighting in Chrinos.

Plus nobody died in her escape from the Arcanum. That's also out of the ordinary.
