At the Halloween party when Karen can't figure out how cousins work, Gretchen patiently explains things to her and gives a sympathetic "oh honey" where everyone else would have called her stupid and put her down. Likewise, when Regina calls Karen a slut, Gretchen's first instinct is to tell her rather than trash her behind her back.

And after the "Jingle Bell Rock" scene, Karen hugs Cady for saving the performance and says "that's the best it ever went". Cady even seems to feel sorry for her after Regina calls her stupid.
** In the end scene Karen is seen near Cady's group of friends, implying they remain close or at least cordial.
