Beth's cell phone will ring, she'll ignore it, and after her romantic dinner with Tom, she'll return home to find Elinor sprawled out in the apartment, moaning ''I TOLD you I was sick!'' Beth will feel tremendous guilt, and break things off with Tom, to care for poor Maude Findlaynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1370484496614447605.post-74926472642649953792013-05-08T16:18:18.251-04:002013-05-08T16:18:18.251-04:00Oh, hey.

Presumably, she and Elinor eat all their meals together. So when Beth gets back reeking of fried pancreas and mushy carrots, will her excuse of "no appetite" fly? I rather doubt it.
