What Makes Her A Hate Sink?[]
- For starters, she helps her husband steal over 1.6 million dollars while she herself was not under investigation.
- She refuses to return the stolen money and prefers to run away with her family and the money, which creates an image that they were kidnapped by Nacho Varga. Indirectly they put Jimmy from Nacho's men at risk, who suspected him as well as holding Nacho under false pretenses.
- She continues her plan even when her children strongly oppose it.
- When Jimmy finds them hiding, she bribes him not to report them.
- They avoid a successful plea deal that Kim tried to get them just because of her pride that they can look "innocent". She also pushes Craig's hand from signing the deal.
- Indirectly, she could drag her husband to prison for many years for this.
- After she discovers that Jimmy (with Mike's help) has taken the stashed money she angrily lashes out at him, initially thinking of reporting him but bitterly having to refuse.
- She and her husband are later shown at tax services trying to extort elderly clients.
- After Jimmy makes them both sign a sponsorship agreement in front of him to "send a message" to Cliff Maine that their trial was unreliable, she decides to inform Cliff about it.
- It turns out that she tried to challenge the decision to portray her husband as corrupt in the past, although she was unsuccessful.
- She also violently hangs up on Kim as she threatens to speak to a representative about her.
- On American Greed, she presents herself and Craig as victims of Saul Goodman, which is complete hypocrisy given her actions.
- Unlike her husband, who is genuinely affable towards Jimmy and has a slightly funny character, Betsy is completely devoid of comedic moments to emphasize her status as a hate sink.
