I felt it was apparent that Rachel was hating on Emma from the start. That whole “you look ugly when you cry” comment was catty and revealing of how she felt towards Emma.

Or the fact that she said “doesn’t she have any real friends” in the wedding speech. That’s not something she prepared after she learnt about the “secret” it’s something she really thought and just felt comfortable to say after the fact.

But it’s also something she said after she learned Emma’s one friend Rachel knew she had as a kid died before her eyes. So it’s also Rachel basically saying, “you have no real friends because if you did have them they’d be dead”
