As for Peter controlling her...he did control her (either through implanted memories or from the grave) but I don't think he's been controlling her since then(just my opinon). That doesn't mean he still doesn't have a connection to Lydia (as the future episode will explore)...at the very least he understands more about it that she does herself as pointed out in the finale. He knew she was feeling something about Derek's loft that not even she realized.
