I thought she was joking! And if she wasn't, I'd be OK with pretending to be her slave for the sake of survival.
I don't think there's any reason to believe she's joking or that you'd only be pretending other than that a modern videogame won't trap you in an unwinnable situation that easily. Without plot armour once you're in a Gith creche what really are the odds you'd make it out again alive and free?
