“Cause you are, aren’t ya!? Micahel says, pissing Phylis off.

They give her a meal and she puts it down. Michael practices tough love saying it’ll suck up the booze. He calls them family. She disagrees.

She knows they want to say they told her so. Lauren says they did tell her this would happen.

Michael yells that Diane’s not the root of all her problems.

Phyllis wants her dead. Michael says making death threats in the middle of a hotel is a bad idea. She doesn’t care.

She’s done with them and their tough love. She yells at them to let her go and takes off. Lauren asks Michael to go after her.

Later, he returns upset. He was trying to keep things light. Lauren worries how many times she can go down this path and come back. She hasn’t been this way in a while. Michael calls her a survivor.
