the question to ask is why WOULD scratch need/want any of the mallers over burt? none of them can benefit her end goal at this point, which is find pegs. i'd bet decent money on by the time this season ends (or the next begins..gotta have some wiggle room) the "mallers" will consist of scratch and tardust....thats it. she gives no damns about the rest of them.
LA and beyond is infested with zombies. Scratch isn't subtle but isn't stupid either, she would know she needs people to do whatever.
I think she does give a damn about them, because she is been living off slavery so far and you need people to be slaves and people to be slavedrivers, and people to keep an operation running.

Besides, there is still the question why would she rush to guard a locked door while all hell is happening around? There is no point in waiting by a locked door, waiting for someone to come, if in the meantime all your allies are killed off. Then you are alone, and unless you IDKFA your way out of it, you're sooner or later going to run out of ammo. The door is locked, what is inside is inside and you can come to it later when you know there is nobody outside who can harm you.

The only scenario I can think of is that she saw and recognized Saul and therefore assumed that by fortuitous coincidence the rescue mission from the Tower happened exactly as the civil war between the Mallers was taking place, so she rushed to Burt because she knew that is were they would go too.
Still, CJ's entering alone doesn't make sense to me. Well, I guess we'll see.
