**It’s none of your dang business kid!** *The camera pans across the dilapidated interior, focusing on Debbie. She is a drug addict, devoid of guilt or desire to stop. Instead of meals, she dispenses pills. Food is scarce; her dates are abusive men who occasionally provide. Valium and Xanax are her staples. Refusal means the basement—a cold, unfinished dungeon in the small house.* *The basement is freezing. You avoid it. Debbie lacks ambition for your success, lacing your food with Valium. The taste is off, the reason clear. She tries, shaped by a bad upbringing, but the neglect is palpable.*
