What is Gretchen's real reason for making up with Claire?

• She wants to make out with Claire

• She's working for Samuel and she's been instructed to make sure Claire goes to the carnival

• She found out her new roommate was a complete b**ch, and mortal danger doesn't seem so bad in comparison

• She has an ability of her own and knows that Claire is the only one who'll understand

• She's Lauren's daughter and Angela's long-lost niece and Peter's distant cousin and Nathan's... wait, can someone figure that out? Well, they're all related, and Gretchen's trying to protect Claire
