Nadia's behavior was bizarre in this scene

After they spent time drinking together, Bob walked Nadia home. Nadia enters the gated area and Bob doesn't. At this point she weirdly starts darting her eyes and acting anxious.

After she thanks Bob her behavior continues to be weird. When he says for what, she has a disgusted look on her face(after she says goodnight) and waits for him to say something else with her back turned to him.

I interpret this scene as her wanting or expecting Bob to make a sexual move or initiate sexual contact(like trying to come inside her house at night) and when he didn't, she was put off, irritated and had her female vanity insulted.

Is this an accurate or reasonable interpretation?

not at all; if you notice bob is very awkward with her, from the "you got a pen" scene, im sure she expected for him to continue the talking and hanging out; he bluntly walks off like he isn't interested. Not vanity more like a " what is wrong with this guy"

The whole character interaction is played thru Rocco in different ways. That's why the last scene in the film is so pivotal. The camera pans from Rocco to Bob, Nadia finally seeing past the Tough Exterior. Realizing he's just a little puppy underneath...

Just don't test him too much lol

I did catch a line that Bob said after killing Deeds that Nadia might or might not have caught. He didn't say....this guy will never hurt you again. He said NOBODY will ever hurt you again. And what is the only way Bob can keep his word about that.

Although that is an offer she has to accept....he would have left if told to in the last scene of the movie.

Yes I think that she was expecting him to come inside and when he closed the gate and left she said thanks and as you watch his face as he is leaving he smiles to himself because he saw that she does like him and that he can take it slow so she can trust him.
