I think she's an ass in the barn. Considering how dangerous Hannibal is,when she is pointing the gun at him, Hannibal says hand me the knife or whatever which she does.
Then when he's cutting the strap on his ar & talking to Clarice, he says "there's another guy in the window" and what does a trained FBI agent do?? She turns her back on him & looks over her shoulder to check out the other man behind her. Eve though hanibalmis holding the knife in his free arm or hand & could have slashed her face quite easily.
