Answer:

C. as someone who is smart and tough

Explanation:

She tries to get straight answers out of Steve so that she can use his statements as much as possible.

Like, if you told someone that you didn't eat a banana last night, wouldn't it be easier to believe that than if you were like, "I don't know if I ate one last night. I may have, but then again, I may not have."

Hope that helps and makes sense :)
