I don't think it seemed unbelievable, and I liked how she kept you second guessing your judgement until the very end, I thought she had done it the whole time but I kept questioning whether I was right or not, found myself thinking "maybe it was Tate, maybe Jumpin did it for her, maybe Jumpin did it and she knew he was going to so she went back to cover up his tracks so he wouldn't be caught" I liked how it wasn't clear whether or not she had done it until the very end.(less)
