I gotta tell you I am seeing some red flags aside from the drinking. Not sure I buy the story of how this happened.

The explanation he gave sounds all warm and fuzzy, but it also sounds full of quacking.

I would expect a call to a sponsor today, meeting or meetings, a full throttle "get it under control". Watch and wait.

I do hope this was just a minor slip up - am hoping today you see him more ramped up to maintain sobriety.
He went to a meeting and called an aa friend last night. This guy is an oldtimer and more of a mentor than a sponsor. He told him he needs to get a sponsor and really start working it.

He admits that he is in full relapse mode, but I will keep my eyes open.
