Answer:
here are ten things i'd ask him if given the chance:
whats your favorite color?
what kind of toilet paper do you use?
would you ever consider growing one of those wizardry beards?
are arms or legs more important to you?
what is your favorite diaper brand?
do you like golf?
does your bottom itch?
do you like me or hate me?
what are you going to eat for breakfast tomorrow?
are you alive?
I would say the correct answer is - she thinks that Higgins deserved it.
Here is a quote from the text to prove it:
<em>"And then you were surprised because she threw your slippers at you! I should have thrown the fire-irons at you."
</em>You can see here that she wasn't mad or surprised she did it - it was to be expected.
