[Overall, Ben doesn't have much of a reaction to this. He doesn't understand the connection between fathers and daughters, though Anya is teaching him. He also doesn't understand, on the gut-level that any human is supposed to, the discomfort with death, with being an instrument or an excuse for it. Oh, he understands that it's wrong as well as the next person, but he doesn't have the kneejerk horror reaction that others do.
If anything is strange to him, it's that someone wanted to keep her safe and sane enough to lock her up; but Ben has learned about that, too, thanks to Alex.]
