An insane Baroness could also have enough money to buy a mansion made of several smaller mansions every day of the year.

--- Quote from: TRVA123 on 24 Mar 2015, 19:55 ---We probably will never know much more than we currently know about Faye's dad's drinking. However, the fact that he drank in secret, coupled with Faye's own alcoholic tendencies, is very suggestive. I don't see why it should be just dismissed out of hand as an inconsequential thing.
--- End quote ---
I'm not dismissing it out of hand. I just don't feel the evidence we have supports the theory that Faye's dad was an alcoholic. Since we're almost certainly not going to find out more evidence, all we know his he had one drink a week away from his wife who didn't approve of drinking. If he drank at other times that Faye didn't know about, maybe. But the evidence we have doesn't say he was hiding his drinking since it was an open secret with Faye. He was just hiding it from his wife.
YourBuddyBill:
New comic refutes (note: refutes, not disproves) some prior theories/hypotheses about the group (aside from Arthur) being inconsequential. Not that I've read all the discussion, cause I gotta go to bed.
SomeCanadianWeirdo:
I suspect if Jeph does have one of Faye's parents as an alcoholic it will be her mother. Her father having a booze problem would be a bit too obvious, and her mother is alive, allowing for more storyline possibilities.
In general I'd like to see her mother and sister turn up. Especially since it's possible they don't know about Faye's overdose, since they didn't turn up in person, or have an uncomfortable conversation with Faye over the phone.

Except that it's already established cannon, that her father is the one who was sneaking drinks behind the mothers back. But then, i guess it could be that Faye's mother is a Dry Drunk, and getting on her husbands case about drinking could be part of the "I can't drink, so ON ONE can drink!" mindset.
Also, did anyone else notice that she slipped back into her southern drawl in the last panel, Something she rarely does, sober? Odd that.
