ALW Love Never Dies Question

Did Meg mean to shoot Christine?

CONSIDER:
Meg kidnapps Gustave, Christine's and The Phantom's son, and almost drowns him. When Christine, the Phantom, and Madme Giry arrive to save Gustave, Meg, saying she feels unwanted points a gun at her head, But when the Phantom tells her the most obvious thing that she will never be like Christine, instead of just admiring her friend, because of the latter fact or shooting and killing herself, because of the latter fact, she shoots and kills Chistine! This sounds like premeditated murder. Look how the scene is staged in the video below this information. Also she is bipolar and has these symptoms:

1. Feeling unusually “high” and optimistic OR extremely irritable
2. Unrealistic, grandiose beliefs about one’s abilities or powers
3. Sleeping very little, but feeling extremely energetic
4. Racing thoughts; jumping quickly from one idea to the next
5. Impaired judgment and impulsiveness
6. Acting recklessly without thinking about the consequences
7. Delusions and hallucinations (in severe cases)

So... HOW responsible is she for her actions?

No. I think she may have been drunk. She was also furious at Erick for mentioning Christine's name, feeling that SHE got all the attention, while poor little Meg Giry, cabaret girl and prostitute got no so much as a glance. then there was all the stuff Mme. Giry told her.

In my opinion I don't think Meg meant to shoot her. She most likely wasn't thinking straight and was becoming mentally unstable after hearing that all she and Madame Giry had worked for had been taken away. She was not in her right mind at this point and she was about to take her own life and when Erik(The Phantom) was trying to talk her out of it, she was coming back to stability. Then he mentioned Christine's name and Meg just lost control and was kind of waving the gun around. Erik tried to take the gun from Meg and in the struggle it just went off.
