I think they gave the child actor for Alia a little too much heavy emotional lifting to do in this scene. It breaks immersion for me, and I understand why they might have cut it, apart from any broader pacing or narrative issues. She worked for the role she was given because she came off creepy AF and I think you'd have to spend a lot more run-time and effort dialing in her humanity than they had available to them.
