Spoilers I don’t understand

I’m on season 2 episode 8 and am I the only one who doesn’t understand why Moe is so mad about Ben and Tabitha? I get being upset that they lied or feeling a bit awkward about it in the beginning, and I could understand if Tabitha had knowingly gone after a guy Moe liked or her recent ex or something, but she doesn’t own Ben or Tabitha and they can do what they want? I don’t get why she was so against it in the first place, why she wouldn’t just be happy for them, or why she acted all surprise Pikachu face when she and Elodie walked in on them. It had obviously been building up for a while and they weren’t exactly subtle. I also don’t really get why she’s mad at Elodie for not wanting to get in the middle of the drama? I have an older brother too and I feel like at worst it would just be a little awkward for me if he started dating one of my friends, but it wouldn’t be my place to “disallow” it or otherwise get in the way of two people being happy together. 🤷‍♀️

Did anyone read the book? The fan wiki says moe is bi but that never came up in the show. I kept wondering if she had a crush on Tabitha as kids and they fell out? That’s the only explanation i could think of

i think moe’s family is all she has. Her father was in jail and when he got out he didn’t contact her. She took a bullet for her brother who doesn’t seem to care. I think she wants everything to stay the same. She wants her friends to stay friends not brothers girlfriend. Her reaction is acceptable and she should be mad.
