He gets caught up in the heroin that Pam procures from The Count, and can’t help disrupting the norm – whether it’s falling from his apartment window or getting caught up in student riots in the streets. And then Jimbo shows up, which leads to more debauchery, hallucinations, and a descent into an underground world that may prove to be deadly.
