I agree. Kathy seemed to have no understanding of how manipulative Ruth was, and didn't grasp that basically Ruth took (or tried to) everything that Kathy cared about, especially Tommy. I wouldn't give very long odds on Ruth having been the one to steal Kathy's tape, simply because she (Kathy) loved it so much.
