If Michael Bay was making this film, she absolutely would've done it in the middle of the film because it would've been a "cool scene bruh". But here, the director chooses to treat the character with hesitancy and an unwillingness to embrace the situation. And when she does embrace that moment that draws her back to a past she's running from, it actually means something. It's the little things that set this one apart.

If it were Michael Bay, she'd probably undress in slow motion and dive to like late '90s rock music with massive explosions in the background.

Also, it was a pretty good scene. Could relate to it.
