I'm told that nail varnish remover is highly effective as a solvent for super-glue.

I presume Faye does still have the crowbar...

That's just it -- she's plainly not "on her game", she just came from a stressful and presumably draining first experience with a support/rehab group. It's entirely reasonable that she wouldn't be up for much in the way of humour immediately after that.
Which is what makes Claire's response such a jerkass move, and Marten for enabling her: it's entirely insensitive and inconsiderate. Even though, yes, it was intended in a humourous vein, anyone with a hint of empathy should know Faye is probably in a lousy state of mind right now and lay off.
It could ultimately end up trivial in Faye and Claire's friendship (if it's even that yet), but at the same time, I can't help but get the sense that this may be the first stages of growing animosity that may end up forcing Marten to choose between his girlfriend and his best friend, and I find it hard to believe that the author's (and fanbase's) obvious favourite would actually lose in that situation.
Oh, also, the side helping of double standards: Claire's apparently free to comment on other characters' genitalian issues, but the same regarding her on here gets people the immediate ban (as I no doubt just inched myself closer to).
Warning - while you were typing 3 new, more humourous and less contrarian replies have been posted. You may wish to review your post.

Considering that the stuff comes out liquid, and hardens once the solvent is allowed to evaporate, it seems reasonable that adding more solvent would, um, solve it.
CaptainFish:
Yeah, I totally understand why Faye's not at full snark power. I imagine to some extent Claire understands/believes that if you have a healthy outlet for issues you don't want everything else to remind you of them, so she's goofing around like she usually would* instead of being delicate around Faye.
*Or maybe a little exaggerated, I mean she does like to crack jokes and follow them up with huge smiles. Also, she is often really blunt, especially back when she was introduced.
