The Happytime Murders 3

Intervention

"Alright so your mom is gonna be home soon you got your letter ready?" Phil asked Millie.

"I'm all set" she said.

"Now in a few minutes Your Aunt Bubbles is gonna wall through the door with your mom and what we'll do is greet her like we normally would and then get her to sit down and listen to our letters." Phil said as he patted his side pocket to see if it was still there.

"Oh god I really hope this is gonna work..she still kind of seemed in denial..I'm nervous what if she refuses.." Millie said

"Like I said yesterday we'll have no choice but to take custody of you cuz she'll have chosen the drugs over us.." Phil said with a shaky voice.

"You mean-" Amber gasped

"Yes..I don't wanna do this but we'll have no other option" Phil sighed

"Uncle Phil I'm so scared! I don't wanna have lose her for good " Millie cried

"And that's what we're gonna try and keep from happening sweetheart." Phil said softly comforting Millie next to him with an arm around her. They waited quietly until Bubbles came through the door with Connie following. Connie walked in to remove her sunglasses shocked to see everyone sitting on the couch.

"Mom!" Millie said crying as she went to hug her mom as Connie got emotional seeing how upset Millie was.Phil has reassured her that it was okay to shed some tears that maybe it would wake Connie up and see what her daughter has dealt with dealing with it all alone.

"Hey baby girl..oooh I know that was scary wasn't it?" Connie said rubbing Millie's back as she sniffed and went to sit down and comforted by Bubbles and Phil as Amber hugged her following after.Connie turned over to wonder why she could see Phil Amber Millie and Bubbles sitting in the middle of her couch in her apartment acting odd.

"Hey come sit down" Amber said taking Connie's hand coercing her to sit between her and Phil.

"What the hell is going on here?" Connie asked almost sort of shocked and ticked

"Look Edwards, this is an Intervention for your-" Phil began as Connie interrupted him

"Don't you fucking say it...!!" She cried upset

"I'm gonna say it, this is for your Sugar Addiction." Phil said firmly

"Okay look I appreciate the concern you guys but I Promise you I'm perfectly fine I just had a day where I took too much this never happens.." Connie tried to explain

"Are you sure?" Millie asked
"Cause, you're totally Fucked up on this Shit I went to clean your room for you and look at this!" She in tears held up a handful of sugar sticks and tiny plastic bags full of the powder.

"...Millie, don't talk like that.." Connie said going pale seeing she had discovered her secret stash.

"Look Edwards, we all wrote letters for you. Millie, why don't you go first?" Phil said as he turned to Millie who was on the other side of him. Millie's hands started to shake as she unrolled her paper and swallowed and felt herself start to cry even harder making eye contact with her mom then looking down.

"Sorry.." she said barely above whisper wiping her eyes.

"It's okay take your time you got this" Phil said as he took her hand and squeezed it as she began to read

"Mom, I love you. You've done so much for me doing everything you could to provide for me all and helped me get through the painful realization of not having my biological father in my life. You kept me going even at your worse times. I remember when you would call uncle Phil and we would all have fun together while you told us cool stories about your adventures as cops and I'll never forget when you even took me for a ride in one of the cop cars when I had a bad day and you told me such sweet things and it's what made me proud to have you as my mom. But the fact is there is one thing that has really come between us these last couple years and that is the sugar. It may not seem like it's a big deal to you but it's affecting your relationship with all of us here. When we found you on the floor I thought for sure I was gonna lose you..you literally almost died and it really affected me so bad I lost it in the waiting room of the hospital. I know if I was in this situation you would be trying to do the same for me. Please momma I need you in my life I don't wanna be stuck all alone at 16 years old I can't deal with this alone. Please
go get help. I need my mom!" Millie sobbed as Phil and Bubbles rapped their arms around her as she cried as Connie sat silently.

"....Okay Amber, why don't you go next?" Phil said rubbing Millie's back.

Amber pulled out her letter and started to read
"Auntie Connie,I miss hanging with you so often and feel like sugar is taking you away from me. It's like you love the sugar more then you care about us all. Once when you were very high I over heard you on the phone saying that you gave a puppet a felty to get some sugar once and in return he gave you the continental Hot Sock and that you licked off some sugar from a pee stain mirror once..."

"Oh Gross, Connie! Is that true?" Bubbles gasped in disgust

Connie embarrassingly hung her head and nodded.

"Alright I want to read mine now" Phil said as he stood up and cleared this throat and began

"Connie,ever since the police academy and training you not only been my partner but my best friend. Sure we have had our fight and thought we hated each other after my fuckup  but were able to mend our friendship again. You were so kind to me when I had lost my mom very suddenly and when rough breakups with my ex girlfriends happened. When I had found out my high school sweetheart Shannon was cheating on me you knew how to put a smile on my face by making me laugh and having me over to your dorm watch movies and stay up late talking Til the sunrise about life and just being there to hug me when I felt depressed. I want to be able to have my best friend back the sugar has turned you into a shell of the what you used to and I want that gal back and it aches me every god Damn day to see what this shit has done to you. We are giving you a opportunity to accept the help that we will offer to you today but if you refuse I'll have no choice but to take Millie and have Lt. Banning get you to give up your badge. I refuse to enable this addiction any longer and I do not want to watch you slowly die..look, Edwards, listen tell me do you enjoy getting high off sugar?"

"..No" Connie admitted getting very teary eyed getting choked up as she answers Phil's questions

"Do you wanna die off of the Sugar and how much more are you willing to take, going down these disgusting roads to get high?" Phil said as Connie just cried. He sighed and turns back over to look Connie in the eye as they kept talking to her.

"Look the point is, we don't wanna see you get in anymore pain. So we've decided that we should take you to a Rehabilitation Clinic" said Bubbles

"It's a beautiful facility right alongside Hollywood Boulevard. We want to see you get better" Phil said reaching over to put his hand on top of hers

"Don't do it just for you but for your girl and us as well we know you can kick this addictions ass I know you can and we will be with you every step of the way it won't be easy sure but we'll help you through" Bubbles said.

"What will Millie do with me at the centre..?" Connie asked

"We would take care of her don't worry we would keep everything under control any concerns you have we'll solve those" Phil said

"Please mom, I don't wanna see you sick anymore" Millie sobbed. Connie went over to her and picked her up in a tight hug closing her eyes as she began to cry with all her might realizing what she has been doing.

"So will you go get help mom" Millie asked

"Okay, I'll go. I don't wanna hurt you you anymore." Connie said "I wanna be a good
Mom and you ain't gonna lose me like you lost your father!". Millie began to cry as she clung to her mom crying this time in relief.

"You will?! You actually will?" Bubbles said

"I will! I refuse to let it come between me and my family" Connie said her arms around her millie "Phil..thank you!!" She said as she ran over to hug Phil as well being he was the one who lead the intervention.

"Hey of course we all adore ya Edwards you're in a room full of people who care a hell of a lot for ya" Said Phil hugging her close rocking back and forth and then she went over to embrace Bubbles and Amber.
