game - but not as a team player, and at the cost of injuring Sean. Spinner, meanwhile, wired without his meds, moons the audience

new project on Tarot cards provides her with a convenient excuse. When she predicts Manny's fall, Ashley begins to believe
in Terri's mystical power and Terri finds a way to get what she wants without having to confront Ashley. But this "problem-solving"

her. A strung-out Ashley becomes convinced that Sean is the only one who understands her. After some private time in her room
