Good on Faye, that took guts. My prediction for the rest of the week:
WEDNESDAY
Faye dumps several more bottles she "forgot" to tell Marten about down the sink. She finishes, looking exhausted, and starts to head back to bed--before noticing Pintsize crumpled in the corner where he was last left.
THURSDAY
Faye powers Pintsize back up. He immediately starts swearing at her for shutting him off, she apologizes profusely and explains her situation.
FAYE: Look, I promise, as soon as I'm back on my feet, I'll get you a new chassis that can't be shut down so easily. You deserve that, at least.
PINTSIZE: Can I have thumbs, too?
FAYE: Don't push it.
PINTSIZE: So, where you gonna get the money?
Faye looks thoughtful, then....
FRIDAY
Faye knocking frantically on someone's front door. Dora opens it, looking startled.
DORA: Faye? What the hell, it's 3 AM!
FAYE: I'm not asking for my job back.
DORA: I wasn't going to--
FAYE: But I need my welding space.
DORA: Faye...
FAYE: I know, I know, I fucked up. I pushed Angus away, I betrayed your trust, I don't have a job anymore, I don't know how I'm going to make things up to Marten yet. This is all I have left. I need an outlet! It's either that, or the booze, or--or your brother--
She stops, looking defeated. Dora surveys her for a moment, then gives her a hug.

TAI (from bedroom): ARE YOU GONNA INVITE HER IN FOR A THREESOME, OR WHAT?
