She has to call someone to get rid of one if it gets into her apartment and she has to dress up like a hazmat suit. She has $35,000 in her bank and no lifelines remaining.

I dunno this. I'll say Sayonara.

Q7: I don't know what I would have left in the way of lifelines but while I rightly guessed the answer, probably from the publicity the group got from the Sopranos, I would need agreement from whatever lifeline I still had.

She didn't mention it but I presume she was referring to "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets".
