How long is "never," exactly?

That's when we said we'd live with middle daughter again.

Based on a conversation we had early in the week, it seems to be about 5 months.

"A few months," on the other hand, appears to equal "a couple years."

The former is how long you suggest that she'd need to live with us until she could find a place of her own, while the latter is how long I think she will actually be with us if she has to break her lease.

I think she's going to be better off kicking the roommate out and trying to find another one, seeing as she's going to be on the hook for everything anyway.  Of course, the idea of dropping non-essentials like cable and a cell phone to make her circumstances more affordable apparently aren't options.  (I can understand why they wouldn't be, due to contractual obligations; that's why I've always been careful in choosing my contractual obligations.)
