She's an alcoholic that likes to use her authority to get recreational drugs and sex from the clients that she serves, and she's been able to get away with it until a client reports Roby to her supervisor. Now she's having to clean up her act or at least prove that the client was lying, but that might not be so easy with a new client trying to get into her pants.
