Well, consider Beverly and her track record with men. She's a ball-breaker. She produced Leonard, a real mess of an individual. Low self-esteem, insecure, doomed to dysfunctional relationships with women, as a consequence of her all-out rejection/criticism of him. And even drove her own husband away with her clinical iciness. So it's no surprise at all she approves of Amy, as she admires her for breaking Sheldon's balls, apparently. The only confusing part..she always admired Sheldon. I suspect for the same reasons we have, for his strength. So you'd think she'd want his balls to remain intact. That's the irony here. Does she want Amy to turn Sheldon into another Leonard?
They blew the opportunity to reveal some Shenny to Beverly. Amy was blaming everything on Sheldon and Penny didn't say anything to protect him. She should nudge Amy just a little bit, to throw her into another tantrum.
Things would turn out differently, if Amy would spill everything she knows about Shenny to Beverly, in hopes to wreck Lenny marriage. She is desperate enough to do it. She clearly cares nothing about Leonard, hates Shenny and is jealous of Penny, because Penny represents everything she can't have. Beauty, friends, marriage, normal life,...
But now, Beverly has no idea what kind of manipulative nutcase Amy really is.
