Have not watched the ep yet, but just wanted to say that your commentary reminds me of something threnodyjones and I were talking about regarding Fringe.
People were mocking Olivia and calling her emo and such because of her breakdown at the laundry last season. TJ and I were saying that it could be more of "the straw that broke the camel's back" type of thing. Kidnapped, attempted brainwashing, pumped full of chemicals multiple times, and about to have her brain cut out while still conscious, only to come home to find no one really even noticed that she was gone. Having that one last thing on top of everything else was just enough to push her over the edge.
Maybe for Amy it could have been a "for fuck's sake, this too now?" sort of thing? Obviously just speculation as we have not seen it yet here though.
