This would have been a great episode but the ending completely ruined it. After having a dream about all her duties she neglected while an addict and then as soon as she is sober having her daughter opening up to her for the first time in a long time she would not relapse straight away. It felt really unnatural as if it was just used so they could make more seasons although the storyline of helping her daughter and trying to stay sober would have been a great one. Of course addiction is unpredictable but the whole episode sets up the fact that she is willing to fight and how she is glad that she is getting sober again, also with the set up from previous episodes of hearing her daughter's speech about Jackie's addiction, then finding out the she herself has been taking and hiding them really just made the ending even worse and completely ruin what would have otherwise been an episode to start her redeeming arc as a mother.
