It is. Even if the television is on as much for distraction as entertainment. There's not a lot that can make Rachel sit still for hours and TV, even if she isn't paying much attention, can still manage it.
But there's a thought in her head now. One Tobias probably won't like. One that won't leave until she gets an answer to it.
"...how's your mom?" she asks, very quiet. Knowing he'll hear her.
Rachel seems to melt, slouching further into the couch, eyes firmly fixed on the screen but no longer seeing. She already knows the answers to all her questions on this subject.
