sociopath (spoilers)

Obviously everyone has an agenda and is manipulative, but how did these seemingly intelligent men become so disturbed by Leanne. That asylum scene was so creepy, like she was supernatural and torturing that poor man. She is very, very pretty, but not so seductive that jaded men would do her bidding. She really looked nuts by the end of the episode.

I think those men would beg to differ, lol.

I don't think it's her 'prettiness', so much as - she's got "it"; a certain something that apparently some men
really go ga-ga for. Maybe it's the combination of damsel-in-distress with steamy seductress? An abstract
quality, an almost hypnotic sexual charisma - not necessarily dependent on a woman's actual physical beauty.

However, I'm not a man, so all I can do is speculate.

There were certain girls in my high school who were definitely NOT 'great beauties' ...
but they sure could wrap the guys around their little finger, lol.

My husband thinks she's gorgeous, but no one goes out of their way like that, risking careers and sanity for a pretty woman...maybe because it's Charleston and not LA or NYC...

yeah, she is definitely an upgrade from his women :(

they are a boys club, i guess they didn't expect to get caught.

I don't think Georgina Haig is very pretty, so I didn't find it believable men would risk everything for her. They should've cast someone better looking and with a better body.
