This is so she can gain his trust and manipulate him for her own benefit. When Peggy tells him she would, she purposely acts like the romantic and socially awkward Stanley. Finally, Stanley asks her if women would really want to be with a nice guy like him.
This hints that she's desperate for money and will go to any lengths (including leaving a feel-good job and betraying others) to get what she wants. During her conversation with Stanley at the bank, she reveals that she left her advice column because serious journalism pays more. Crown Revues most popular songs include Hey Sonny (Whered You Go), which was featured in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer soundtrack, and Hey Pachuco.

This foreshadows that Peggy has inside knowledge of the city's criminal underbelly. Later, when introducing herself to Stanley, she says she works for the Tribune (although she could be freelance, or it could be a "journalists tell lies" clue).
In her introductory scene, she tells the police officer at Ripley Auto Finishing that she is a reporter from the Evening Star.
There are several easy-to-miss signs that Peggy Brandt isn't the decent person she first appears to be.
