She goes to a furniture store and complains that the worker there wants to help her with a couch.
Even just looking at their homes shows the difference between the two siblings.

We never hate Pansy, but rather, we sympathize with this woman who we cant quite figure out.
Its a tremendous performance that shows immense love and care even in the worst of situations.
Also great are Webber and Barrett, who show the toll Pansys actions have taken on this family.
