I mean, she looks like she's having so much trouble doing it on her own....

I can't tell if Faye is trying to stop herself, or if she's trying really hard to take a drink...

I think it's both.

Zebediah:
It reminds me of something that happened to me at a party long ago. I was handed a drink by a friend and told to drink it. I raised the cup to my mouth, but when it was about an inch away from my lips the odor of the drink hit my nose. I was then literally unable to move my hand closer to my mouth - I was willing it to happen but my hand wouldn't move. The drink, I found out later, contained cinnamon schnapps, tabasco sauce, jalapeno peppers, and quite a bit of Everclear, and had a particularly pungent odor that must have triggered some survival reflex that was not under my conscious control.

Anyway, it looks like something similar is happening to Faye here. She is willing her hand to move the bottle to her mouth, but her hand isn't listening. Something deep insider her knows she really shouldn't do this.

Me too. It's strips like that that keep me coming back.

Yes.

Booze will always offer you a home.
