Stevie ran away from Betty Ford. I know today she claims she finished the complete stint. But I remember on MTV news it claimed she ditched the place and said it was really stupid.

I don't recall this either! I do recall clearly that she did NOT go of her own volition as she also now claims. There was very definitely an intervention to get her to go. Her management at the time, Frontline Mgmt (Irving Azoff) was part of it, and she was so pissed about it (a la "no one has the balls to tell me what to do!") that she fired them. The line in Welcome to the Room, Sara is about them "Frontline baby/well you held her prisoner/ even after all of these years/as well as you knew her/in the never-forgotten words/of another one of your friends/when you hang up that phone/well you cease to exist"
