They remain in denial until their daughter admits at a family confrontation meeting the full extent of her drug addiction. After this, they are able to address their own feelings about being the family of a hardcore drug addict. The daughter is reunited with her family only after all of them have acknowledged her addiction and accepted therapy for it.
