She manipulated Makoto into trading rooms with her, which took a decent lie, and good acting. She got Leon to come to what he believed was her room, selling the lie by trading the room signs. She played it cool when Sakura and Hina were unexpectedly in the kitchen.
Weaknesses: When under pressure, she seems to make lots of small, but crucial mistakes, such as leaving a sword where Leon could use it to defend himself. She also isn't truly a killer, which resulted in her hesitating to kill Leon, a mistake that led to her downfall
