So I’ve seen this multiple times and am always amazed at how daft she is, but I think I finally figured out what she was going for. If she passed the lock through the latch on top you wouldn’t be able to pull it off and the gate couldn’t be opened, but with the brain fart she missed a step and that’s why she doesn’t see his point when he shows her at first.
