Felicia insists that she is not an alcoholic, but Lorna isn't buying that. Lorna asks Felicia what would have happened if Felicia had hit her head on the way down when she passed out dead and drunk, and no one had found Felicia? Felicia already almost killed herself in the fire at KBAY. Lorna points out that Felicia drinks when she is alone, when she is upset, when she is stressed out, because people like Rachel Cory are making Felicia's life more miserable than it already is. Felicia makes promises that she's not going to drink again and then breaks them. "Ask any AA member," Lorna concludes. "They've heard this song and dance before."
Felicia replies that Luke was dead, her book was overdue, and the ratings for her television show went into the toilet. So yes, Felicia had a few, and for a while it helped. Lorna can't blame Felicia for that, can she? Lorna asserts that she is not blaming Felicia; she wants to help Felicia. Felicia tells Lorna she has a lousy approach. Lorna asks why Felicia is lying to the people who love her. Felicia replies that it didn't happen to Lorna. Lorna's husband wasn't murdered, and everything that she worked her whole life for isn't suddenly taken away. When that happens to Lorna, THEN Lorna can judge Felicia. Lorna insists that she is not judging Felicia, she just wants to help her. Felicia says that if Lorna keeps hassling her like this, Felicia's next drink is going to have Lorna's name on it.
Jenna returns with Felicia's coffee then, and Felicia thanks her. Noticing the tension between her mother and sister, Jenna asks if everything's all right. Felicia and Lorna both say it's fine. When Felicia leaves to get dressed (even though, as Lorna points out, she is already dressed), Jenna demands to know what's going on between Felicia and Lorna. Lorna tells her they have other things to discuss, like the bun in Jenna's oven. Jenna wants to know how Lorna found out and is angry when Lorna says Dean told her, even though Lorna emphasizes that she had to pull it out of Dean because he was upset. Lorna then accuses Jenna of not really being pregnant. Thanks to Janie for the scenes.
Glad to see Lorna call Felicia out!! This was a fantastic storyline!!
