Her doubts about him are plain to see in this clip from the first episode, which sees the frenemies having a hypothetical discussion about whether they would lie to save their partner from a driving offence.
Kate's response is steeped in double-meanings, as she drops some not-so-subtle hints that she's hellbent on uncovering the truth behind his interactions with a mysterious person saved as 'Coral Girl' on his phone.

"If Sean was stupid enough not only to lie to me but then to get caught," Kate begins, before trailing off and regaining her composure. "Truth is, our car barely does 50[mph], so I reckon Sean would be safe."
