She needs to calm down.

Yes this isn't like buying the Multiplex 10. She'll need to develop a business strategy.
And even though this doesn't actually take place on New Years Eve it sure sounds like Faye is making a resolution.
Radium_Coyote:
Faye has a very unfortunate tendency to make things worse, rather than better. A direct confrontation with CW will not end well, but that would most likely be Faye's first move.

* Why are we so sure Faye has no assets? She could be a beneficiary in her parents testament - I think I recall them owning a house?
* Do(n't) US houses usually have a basement/attic? I rent a 35 m^2 flat for 335€ and get 3-5 m^2 storage space in the basement as part of the deal. It's rather common over here.

1. Her mom still owns the house. Upon her death it probably gets split between Faye and her sister, but for now it's Faye's mom's house and so can't be counted as one of Faye's assets.
2. In the north, yes, most houses have basements or attics. (Basements are less common in the southern US.) But Faye doesn't live in a house, she lives in an apartment building, and many of those do not have a storage space as part of the deal. We've never seen one in all the time Marten and Faye have lived in that apartment, so I'm guessing they don't have one.

...does this mean something else on your side of the pond? Because if not...what.

I'm using the term loosely and not in strict accordance with its traditional meaning - I am using it to indicate that Faye needs to find a wealthy donor who isn't interested in the usual sort of repayment or even repayment at all. That's how I generally think of the term anyway.
Oh, and let's avoid turning this into another pointless etymological discussion like the one about 'distaff' that totally derailed a prior thread.
