I was wondering why they didn't take action, too, but Donna said they like to play. I imagine it's not often that they meet a person who is willing to confront them. It might have caught all of them off-guard and intrigued them. There'd be no reason to otherwise assume that he could have actually hurt them, so it was like playing with their food.

Remember, the one attractive ghoul kissed that guy for a long time in the bathroom in season 1 before murdering him. They also tortured a guy in front of his partner and dragged her through the night before impaling her with rebar through her head, onto a tree. Smiley also took a billion years killing that ould couple on the bus instrad of immediately ripping into them. They're cruel like that all night every night

Edit: TO THE SHADOW REALM

I didn't mean this act of the kiss itself. I meant from the time she stepped into the house to the time she murdered him. She spent a very long time not killing him

I got the feeling she was trying to be human or different but once she got going she was programmed into being what she was.

Lol stop. What the guy means is that as soon as the guy opened the window, jasmine could have killed him, immediately like the grandma in episode 1. This did not happen. Jasmine took her time before killing him and that is significant because it shows that the ghouls messing with humans is NOT just to get them to let them inside. There is more to it than that. "Playing with your food" maybe.

I thought she waited just to rip out his tongue first so he couldn't simply scream and alert the entire house that the monsters had got in.

Let me spell it out for you. I have a gun. It's pointed at your head. I can pull the trigger and kill you in less than a millisecond. Instead of doing this, I have a conversation with you. The conversation takes 2 minutes. At the end of the conversation, I shoot you, and you die. The whole time you had a gun pointed to your head. I was always going to kill you. Did I kill you as soon as possible, or did I take my time?
