I don't think Alex was thinking 'uuuhhh i want my dad' she was thinking 'holy crap Ben said they were looking for him so if I say that blah blah they won't shoot me'.
But why was she even thinking about getting shot or not? Surely once her 'loves' had been killed she wouldn't give a damn anymore? Yet she was so quick..so calculated and so eager to bounce on over to Ben's corner..the very guy she loathes..appearently..

Yes, that's exactly right - if such an awful thing happened then I wouldn't give a damn about getting shot or not..i'd be distraught..and i certainly wouldn't be thinking about saving my own hide, i'd be off giving Karl and Rousseau CPR or something (well, maybe not Karl ). Announcing my allegience to my father wouldn't be a priority..my priority would be pumping the oxygen back into Karl's lungs - if i were in her situation and if he was my love etc. Yet the moment the guy gets shot she's already thinking about self preservation - and whilst this is understandable, it's also highly questionable, considering the reason why she is so distant from her father was because of the very boy who now lies with a bullet through his lung. Surely she owed it to Karl and their 'love' to stay true to their anti-Ben stance? Yet she caved in after only seconds of Karl biting the bullet - proving that all that angst was for nothing.
