Certainly, she stopped because Balder showed up. I admit to being a little fuzzy as to why, however. Did he actually use a power to negate her anger, or did she stop because she realized he could whoop her? There's some nuance there I'm not getting.

I'm sure we'll find that she's been communicating (and doubtless a whole lot else) with Akio, however. She has all sorts of buttons to push, naturally, and he's the expert at pushing buttons. She didn't unravel like this on her own.
