Is what I was saying.

Faye's mom might come up to show support, maybe she could provide information. Maybe there was a reason she was so against Faye's dad drinking, maybe Faye was treated to more milkshakes towards the end than she recalls, but I'd be seriously surprised if any new information surfaced after so long

ZoeB:
Anger is an energy. It can be transmuted into unreasonable compassion, unreasonable determination, unreasonable patience and charity, and an indomitable determination to never give up, never give in.

Without such transmutation, it can end in becoming bitter and twisted. Self-destructive.

Faye is not her father. She's angrier. But knows the trick of transmutation.

Thrillho:
Loving the PiL reference there.

swapna:
Lookit Faye, all motivated and insightful!

So, as others have said, it's an interesting and maybe autobiographical monologue. I kind of expected something like this after yesterday's 'I know how my dad felt'-pseudo-wham!-line, but I didn't expect it to sound like a motivational speaker. It takes a little from the impact, I think, because these are not 'dramatic' moments, actually. Why would Faye string Marten along, and have him worry for her complete speech instead of telling him beforehand? It's the most important information, really, and it changes the tone of the whole conversation. Usually, I don't mind if dialogue gets switched around for drama, but this feels.. forced? Like the ending of a 'very special episode' of an American children's or teenager's TV series?

Also, I'm happy that Faye's ready to start really living.
