Indicible:
So, Hannelore's power is under 8000?

Good initiative on Faye's part. Have someone distract her from drinking. The problem will be to hold herself if there is nobody around.

Well, I mean, Hanners could take Faye, but she'd have to transform.

I can imagine a strip where she's feeling temptation, so she calls Hanners, who made plans with Marigold. Then she calls Marten, who's on a double-date with Claire , Emily, and Clinton. She considers calling Dora but decides against it in light of their recent conflict. Finally she looks at Pintsize, who gives a nervous glance back at her. Knowing Jeph, this would happen on a Friday, so there'd be a cliffhanger. The next week of comics would be Yelling Bird and date filler.

Natswash:
I can't help but feel that the next real drama bomb will hit in the next few weeks (Real time, not comic time). Dora getting called to task? Svenectomy and Svenpocolypse? For now I think we are going to get some sad as Faye begins recovery and some lighthearted Marten/Claire or Emily/Clinton or Pintsize etc.

BenRG:
Poor Faye really has it bad, doesn't she? There are no signs of the shakes or other physical symptoms but it really looked like she was about to fall into Hannelore's arms in panel 1.

FWIW, I don't think that Marten really is aware just how addicted Faye is and how hard she's struggling. He's still in the "She's gonna be okay, right?" self-delusion where, once she feels a little better, the problem will solve itself. It's understandable that he doesn't want to confront how deeply rooted her emotional problems are. It's in-character for Faye to go along with this because she doesn't want him to worry when he's just starting a new relationship.

I agree that Faye needs professional help. I also can see why she doesn't want to be alone with Pintsize. What she needs is for Hanners to drown out the voice in her head urging her to drink.
