Answer 1

I believe Paula is more influenced with expectations with her decisions.
She is expecting to see that drinking will help her relax and calm her nerves. Of course there are many other ways to do this, but this is the point where she is already addicted to alcohol and will say pretty much anything to have some more.

answer = Expectations.

Sad Sad Paula :(
