On Papers, Please

Playing through Papers, Please. There is a part early on where a married couple shows up. They are immigrating, escaping a dictatorship. The husband's papers are in order, but the wife is lacking a permit. They beg for mercy. She says that she will be killed if she can't escape her country. In the alpha I downloaded, I denied her entry. Today in the full version, I took the monetary fine and let her in.

What's happening here?
