I have to admit, I laughed.
There's just something about the whole situation, especially with Sydney reacting over, that's just hilarious to me.
Like, I know, intellectually, that this is supposed to be sad, and I feel kinda bad being amused, but the whole situation is just ridiculous and Sydney being so Sidney about it doesn't help.

Still not the worst presentation of a tragic backstory.
Looking at you StarPower.
