No tendrías que

Hola,

Would the following be an example of objection using the conditional? It is in response to a character revealing what she has done.

Tú no tendrías que decir nada. No tendrías que haberle dado la pistola.

How would you translate this? Here is my attempt:

You didn't have to say anything. You didn't have to give her the gun/pistol.

Translation question

Why is "pasar" shown to mean "have" when English speakers just as often say "to spend?" Wouldn't it be truer to the Spanish to say it means "to spend?" Also, that will help me learn the actual meaning of "pasar." To say it means "have" I would think may sow some confusion.

“La llamaría, pero no contesta.” “La llamaría, pero no contesta.” Hola, I’m confused. I would/should/could call her but she doesn’t answer. If he called and she didn’t answer it seems “La llamé, pero no contesta” makes more sense. Muchas gracias, Shirley.
