 The timing of that exchange, Roko to May: "I thought you were in danger." May to Dale: "She's dumb and bad at her job." means Roko is real close to breaking through to May who is knocking over verbal trashcans to block Rock's path in case she gives chase. She's scared shitless (well, maybe not actually shitless since that's robot default) of showing how touched she was by that concern and having to admit that Roko is a decent person. We may see a May meltdown, and some peer therapy from Mellon won't surprise me. Meanwhile, poor Roko still needs to meet some guy who'll take a baguette to her. I beg to differ. Personally, I think you're reading too much into this. The way I see it, Roko is thinking about her service, and how much she can actually do, and at that moment she felt sympathetic for May. Depending on her findings Roko may either quit the service or develop a... zeal.
