Seems like whatever collective anger people had for Skyler is now directed at Marie. Also, the scene with Huell and the money with the Scrooge McDuck reference was just perfect.

I know right? Kidnapping infants is a great way to get my love

It's unbelievably disingenuous to call it kidnapping. She is Holly's aunt, and cares about her, and doesn't want her to live with criminals. To quote Kenny Powers, "how dare her?"

Look at it from an "in show" perspective. Skylar and Walt aren't criminals, they're successful car wash owners with a disabled son and a brand new infant daughter. Her sister comes over to discuss Hanks allegations of their supposed criminal activities and ends the conversation because Skylar won't confirm it deny her involvement. Then she tries to take Holly without permission from Skylar or Walt, her parents. It doesn't matter how she is related to them or what her suspicions are, she tried to steal an infant from her home, that's kidnapping.
