mia, like liz did at the lunch scene, spoke honestly when addressing some of olivia's failings in the classroom scene
ben's callout of olivia at the E3 formal is warranted (as was inco's explosion on him right after the principal's office). i also think that it's admirable that he'd still go right up to olivia's house and try to drag her to a passing grade and beg her to let people help her after the nasty fights inco's had with him recently and the years of pissant behavior from olivia, even if he is just as blind as to how to help olivia in that moment as inco is
