She tried to be a good hostess in that classic Malfoyish way, yes. Also, she clearly understands that we're in charge, and she's out of options; I think she's trying not to ask for anything because she doesn't want to hear us say 'no.'
She hasn't asked to see Lucius, for instance. Even though I'm quite sure she'd like to. I was thinking of offering to take her, if Alice can't think of a reason not to. I suppose there's the risk she'll see some implied threat here, like 'we could take away YOUR magic, too!' or 'Lucius is at our mercy, ha ha ha ha!'
