Death Parade Episode 1 Discussion

In the first episode, the woman isn't actually guilty.. The arbiter however, perhaps doesn't pick up on this subtlety and seemingly makes the wrong judgement (depending on your interpretation of which is preferable), so this could be seen to demonstrate the fallibility of the system given their incapacity to experience and tap in to the full range of human emotions along with their subjective, uninvolved viewpoint. If you watch closely, she pauses, takes a breath, her expression changes and she plays along with him, she sees that he is absolutely torn apart and at this stage, after killing their child, he almost wants it to be true - she realises therefore that if she doesn't give credibility to his belief, he won't be able to live with himself for how he has treated her in light of her assumed misdemeanour. So in a purely selfless act, out of love and sympathy for her husband (even though he's been a massive dick - she is quite obviously much smarter than him.. girl power), she puts herself on the line. I though this was beautiful and well executed. Did anyone else see this?
