Sam's reaction isn't really enough to justify it. It was still bad for her character because, like I said, she was actually growing out of those problems but now that's pointless-because she was mutated, her mind barely works, so those problems don't exist. She could have been mutated in the first place and she wouldn't have those problems any more because she can barely function in her "mutant" form as shown by the dialogue, and therefore those problems wouldn't exist. Derailment.

Sure it was good enough for Sam's character but not Dakota's. Just because they can still be in a replationship doesn't justify her becoming a mutant that can barely think. Heck, if she was the same person mentally, it probably wouldn't bother me as much.
