NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
On to other thoughts that have probably already been aired in the four pages that have been posted since last night:
I'm really suspicious that Pintsize may have tried to stop her from drinking. Ergo he ended up turned off while she's puking up on the couch.
Neko_Ali:
It is entirely possible that Dora called Marten off screen, and that's why he went home to check on Faye before going over to Claire's. It is also equally possible that Dora didn't think to call, or was to angry to call. Not out of spite towards Faye, but in a 'I just don't want to talk about it' way. In the end, it was Faye who made the decision to go home, finish the bottle she was working on and another too. Clearly a few hours have passed between Faye and Marten getting home, so I am guessing either he didn't know, or he didn't he would have to rush home to try and stop Faye from trying to drink herself to death.
ASB84:
A further thought regarding the severity of the situation: Jeph's commentary for the strip is "oh dear". Now, perhaps I'm reading too much into two words, but to me, that would be a pretty big understatement if things were really dire. An "oh dear" moment isn't exactly good, but it's a long way from an "oh shit" moment too. So, perhaps it's an indication that while things are certainly bad, they're not going to get as dark as has been suggested.

In late, but here's my thoughts.
- We don't know if the bottle(s) were full when she started guzzling. I doubt she planned this binge by first making a shopping trip. She may have just drank whatever part bottles she could find in the house (and in her purse).
- the color of puke: Maybe she had marinara for lunch.
- Pintsize: Whatever happened, I doubt he was much other than a smartass. That's historically been his character. His current apparently catatonic state could be anything from impact damage to a porn induced haze. Or he could have gotten bored after Faye passed out and simply gone into "screen saver" mode for a while.
We don't really know, but given that it's Friday, we're going to be hanging on this dramatic cliff-hanger for a couple of days. Jeph is a clever and evil man.
TinPenguin:
Well.
This is not hilarious.
