Hypocritical Issue? SPOILERS

***Spoilers to a plot point revealed, proceed at your own risk!...***

Anyone please nicely correct me if I am wrong...

At the beginning, Samantha (Melissa Sagemiller) tells Rich she quit smoking and asks him not to smoke, (an obvious foreshadow she's pregnant!) but then later at the Bachelorette party she smokes pot with the other girls?! How hypocritical is that?! So it's OK to smoke pot, but not cigarettes?

I'm not trying to start a debate on if marijuana should be legalized or anything like that, my point is, if she's quit smoking cigarettes and doesn't want people smoking around her...it should apply to ALL smoke.

So, did I perhaps miss that she was the only one NOT partaking at the party? I could have sworn it showed ALL of them toking up, but maybe not...please let me know, if you know for certain!

Thanks! =)

She actually said that the girls had partaken in smoking the pot. She didn't.

Although 2nd hand pot smoke isn't good for pregnancy either.
