The "atrocity" Lori commits in this episode makes the notion of her "seemingly caring more about Bobby than her family" a hard pill to swallow when said "atrocity" isn't dissected out of the context its presented in. At worst, Lincoln is being dragged on a forced date to a resturaunt (probably all expenses paid) to make peace with a girl he wronged. If that's the biggest example of how Lori's priorities are morally skewed with her boyfriend and her family, then I'd say she's not given nearly enough credit in this episode. Keep in mind that this isn't me condoning her actions at all; the right thing to do would've been to cut ties with Bobby if he was going to end their relationship like that.
