Listen, you say thank you, you don't beat her, and you don't ask for the impossible from her. She has nothing to complain about. (Not that she can complain. She's an android.)

"Why were you a dick to him?" she asks gently. It's part of her childcare protocol, to help children talk through their emotions and stuff when they're upset. She has, however, taken pains not to use the tone she was programmed to use with those protocols. They'd just be condescending to a grown man, and she doesn't want Leo to feel like she's treating him like a child just because she can repurpose some of that programming.
