At home, Deb sneaks cigarettes. She thinks smoking is how she manages her emotions.

In a desperate attempt to stop and to regain control, she takes cigarettes to the kitchen sink and drowns them.

“If I broke them, I only would put them back together and smoke them… By drowning them, the sink gives me power over the cigarettes.”
