I think you guys are reading too much into the words and not enough into the scene. Laura is used to everyone in the room just flat out staring at her and here she is on an official date that she knows is being watched by multiple people and he won’t even look her in the face. She also knows for her to be respected by the whites she needs to clearly be the “dominant” one in the relationship, but she also knows Harry well enough that if she just flexes her mojo it will not play out well. So, what does she do? She plays the shy but observant girl asking a deeper question than he is used to similar to the way Lash approached him. She does this for a couple of reasons. First, she wants to soul gaze with Harry because she feels that she got more from Carlos than he got from her. Second, she wants to see if Harry is put together enough to call her out for her bull shit. She sets up a future where the way forward is the gaze but seems like she respects his need for time while getting a temp for how observant he is currently. Regular hot girls can lie and be manipulative and she is the queen of the whites. I assume everything she says true or not is to get something she wants. And Jim can be writing it like that for all those reasons and as a way to explain it to the newbies
