The reason why she got pulled aside was because she wasn't coming across as alpha. Sounds stupid? Having to use drastic measures such as saying: "Put down the crack pipes" shows insecurity. If she had simply stood up, maybe consistently told the guys:"Hey, hey we don't have these...EXCUSE ME!" and then explained in a calm manner what was wrong, she would have earned respect. However, this way she more looked like a hysteric, loose cannon. You have to really be confident (full) of yourself as a woman with a massive personality to guide men in a male-dominated environment and that takes lots of practice and time. Marissa Mayer I'd say is an alpha.
