I also hosted their going away party where the woman got totally drunk, threw up in my bathroom, and passed out. The next day I took them wherever they wanted to go. We went to every large thrift store in the city where they loaded up on cheap warm clothing to take back and sell to their comrades. On our way back I treated them to Burger King, a veritable feast.
