I get the fact that peeps dropped this because of how she easily trusted a stranger but like a comment said before, she thinks that this guy may be of help in returning to her world. Also, she is able to empathize with him (and sees him as some helpless person) since she knows how hard it must be especially since they're in the same situation (though he's just faking it). I really want to see whether he'll grow to like her (though highly unlikely). I'm pretty sure this guy is one of those short time villains that only get to do something once and get caught sooner or later.
