Yeah.

Devastated by her son's decision, Elizabeth Duncan retaliated, and this is a trigger warning, by taking an overdose of the sleeping pill Seconal.

Oh.

Yeah.

By the time Frank had discovered what she had done, Elizabeth had lost consciousness, and so she was rushed to St.

Francis Hospital, where she stayed in a coma for nearly a week.

Oh, my God.

Yeah, this was a big deal.

Holy shit.

So Frank obviously felt like this whole thing was his entire fault.

Like, he was really upset.

that his desire for independence had caused his mother's overdose.

So he stuck by his mom's side every single day that she was in the hospital, really trying to get back in her good graces.

He was like, you don't have to move.

It's fine.

Yeah, that's awful.

But privately, at least some of his interest in being by his mother's side was also the daily opportunity to chat with Elizabeth's nurse, 29-year-old Olga Kupchik.

By the time Elizabeth was discharged from the hospital, roughly two weeks later, Frank and Olga had started dating.

Much to Elizabeth's disappointment.

Oh, Elizabeth, come on.
