Sorry, I don't agree. None of those scenes are played as silly or dismissive. They don't shy away from how much it tears her up inside, both the loss of the life she expected to lead AND Jim's betrayal. She's fucking furious. When Jim tries to apologize over the ship's computer - a moment that could easily come off as one of those grand romantic gestures - we see exactly how angry it makes her, and her rejection of him feels very, very right. His apology is pathetically inadequate, and not only does she get that point across, she makes the point that she wants nothing to do with him despite his attempt at reconciliation. The scene where she's sitting in the cafeteria, not eating, not even aware of her surroundings...that's clearly a person who's gone past anger (for the moment, anyway) and feels utterly numb and detached from her situation. I mean... she comes a hair's breadth away from committing murder in cold blood. Not even just a quick, relatively clean murder like shooting, but rather beating someone to death.

If you watched that movie and saw "silly woman getting all emotional"... well. I think that says more about you than it says about the movie, to be honest. I saw a woman driven nearly insane with pain and betrayal and struggling to cope AND almost failing to the point where she nearly kills someone.

And then she forgives him and fucks him for the rest of her life. That makes it even worse than if she didn't care about what he did to begin with.
