"No it can't." Phoebe agreed and assumed that someone else close to Kate had been pulled away from the island. She was going to say something that would likely piss her off but ---
"You know the island's not a lot different than our lives back home. Our chains get yanked there all the time, too and people come and go whether you want them to or not." Her eyes met Kate's. "After Cole and before our divorce, I wanted to curl up and say screw it. Forget connections, they hurt, but I can't live like that. Not saying I'm open for love, God, not even close to that yet, but I am saying, I couldn't have survived this as well as I have without you, Trip, Lilo and the others. Connections are what get you through the day."
A small curve of her lips, "and alcohol numbs you through the pain."
