Spoken to be one of the most touching episodes Intervention has ever aired, Sylvia, also focused on alcoholism. In this follow-up clip of Sylvia, she speaks of the "comfort of knowing that you are not alone, you are not the only one who has the disease of addiction." Sylvia shares some thoughts about her struggle with alcoholism and the intervention. She states that she has learned that the word "No" is a complete sentence, and understands that she doesn't have to please anyone, and she doesn't have to be the belle of the ball, which was a big relief to her. Viewers will recall Sylvia's brother assuring her during the intervention that there were no expectations, he only wanted her to get well.
