They were actually trying to help her... there was no way she would be allowed through anyway and she needed to go to the correct gate (obviously not on the far side of passport control). She was there for several minutes (seemed like an eternity) until she finally realised she wasn't getting through and walked away. I really had a hard time biting my lip while she was standing there but I figured that starting a shouting match right in front of passport control wouldn't be a smart play.
What I also tend to come across fairly often is Polish citizens (or former Polish citizens ) travelling on US/Canadian passports and kicking off big style (in Polish) as soon as they're shown the other queue - I find that quite hilarious
