Is it cold in here?:
Marigold, listen to Momo. By now you should realize that she is perceptive, honest, and has your best interests at heart.
Masterpiece:
Which is that much more fascinating, considering she doesn't have one.

As well as the examples posted by K1dmor, there was also the noodle incident.

All the rest of their little 'feud' was generated by Dale. Marigold's real problem is that since Dale showed himself the bigger man and tried to bury the hatchet, she's been unable to adjust. Since she got up this morning she's been behaving like the feud was still going, which I admit makes her look like pretty childish.

I agree with that. I think the people "defending" Marigold (like me) don't really think she behaved in a great way and everything she does is fine because she was bullied, but rather objected to her being called a jerk and her character being judged negatively as a whole. In my opinion, acting in a dumb and childish way sometimes, maybe even unintentially hurting someone in the process, does not automatically mean someone has a bad character or is a jerk or has a distorted version of reality or something like that. I think everyone "defending" Marigold rather wanted to point out that her behaviour might be understandable or could be explained regarding the history of Marigold's and Dale's previous interaction, not that it was good or excusable
