I'm well aware of what information has been twisted.
[Gideon's own fate and involvement with Chilton seemed to be it, but the truth is that her knowledge of the actual circumstance between the two doctors, combined with Gideon's confirmation, seemed to be enough. While her perspective on that has become much more convoluted, she doesn't see Chilton as any less of a predator than Gideon. His approach to others led into that.
The difference is that she does know the feeling of being victimized, but her understanding is that there are many victims in this situation. She had discounted Chilton's own victimhood, and hoped to give him the same level conversation that she had provided Gideon. Neutrality, rather than something else. But she isn't being offered that.
Of course, his own reluctance to speak to her has given her more reason to return to her previous state of mind about him. After all, while there were many victims, there were people who victimized others. That includes Chilton, as far as she's concerned. Kate wasn't being underhanded, but she does prefer a more level understanding with the man—a certain neutrality that she hasn't achieved here because she refuses to play anything that involves sharing one piece of information for another (which she's certain the information about Danger would become—as much as she is now more aware of Danger as an individual, she isn't going to see the woman as an object to discuss for some other greater purpose).
While she will likely return to Chilton's words in the future, she prefers to remain confident in her view here. Chilton's own unwillingness to implicate the birdie, along with his responses to Gideon in a situation that's burned into her memory, provide her enough to at least be very suspicious of him. But she had been harsh when she shouldn't have been. She had been frustrated with him when he deserved kindness, and she should have been as soft with him as she had been with Gideon. That's all.]
And you know my reasons for "hurting" you, Frederick. I'm sorry for that, and I let my emotions get the best of me. I won't apologize for being suspicious of you, because I think my suspicions were founded. The fact that you're worried about my intentions makes you paranoid, or at least edgy enough to be what some might call overly careful.
I think you forget that I found out everything because I wanted to help. I still want to help. [To give him his own chance to answer questions. She's careful not to level direct accusations, even if she's confident in her information. Again, the fact that he claimed that he did something for Gideon, that he didn't play with denial—even if it was under the scalpel, she finds it's still damning.
But she wants to help others, too. The fact that this has, to the public eye, gone to rest is a bad thing.]
