so... I'm gonna loot.

- I'm just gonna be a minute.

- Yeah, yeah.

Take your time.

- Oh, my god. What?

- Relax.

I just wanna talk to you

for a second.

Listen, I'm worried about Maddy.

Oh, is this some

more of your psychobabble

because you're

a guidance counselor?

Therapist, Izzy.

Look, Jake, she hasn't

been here in 25 years.

Just give her a break, okay?

You sure about that?

What does that mean?

Do you know she's

been havin' nightmares?

She barely even sleeps anymore.

Well, maybe she doesn't

wanna sleep with you.

I'm not screwin' around, Izzy. Look,

I'm tryin' to tell you somethin'.

She got a call from her

principal the other day.

Some of the kids in the class haven't

been given grades on their papers.

She's just been scratching

groups of five on 'em.

You know, four in a row

and then a slash?

Parents are complaining. She's

not tellin' me anything.

I don't know what the hell's going

on, so I look in her lesson planner

and it's the same thing, Izzy

just groups of five

all over the pages.

What?

She used to do that

when we were kids

when she first came

to live with us.

Then my mom took her

to a psychiatrist

got her on some meds and

then she finally stopped.

Uh, so what do you think

it means?

The atomic number of boron?

I don't know.

Do you know anything

about the law of fives?

No.

There's a religious sect

called Discordianism.

They call it pure chaos which humans

can't even begin to understand.

And in pure chaos,

the only discernible order

is the law of fives.

Everything happens in fives

or somehow appropriate to fives.

They say the law of fives

is never wrong.

So you think

she's a, a Discordianist?

No, dipshit. I'm saying I

don't have a f***in' clue.

Right. That's a good one.

I don't know, Jake.

I'm so sorry.

Izzy, nobody knows her

like you do.

You can't tell me you haven't

noticed something wrong with Maddy.

Hm.

Look, all I'm askin' is just..

Help me keep an

eye on her, okay?

Okay.

Hey. You okay?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah,

I'm fine.

It's just, it's a lot

to take in, you know?

- Yeah.

- No, wait.

Can we, um, just leave

that room alone for now?

- Yeah, sure.

- Okay.

Probably nothin'

but baby toys, anyway.

Right.

Alright, what the hell is that?

- What's what?

- Izzy?

- Oh. Oh, these?

- Those.

They're just..

Give 'em to me.

Xanax? You know those are

over two decades old, right?

Probably makes it

that much more potent.

Probably makes them

that much more poisonous.

You could have really

hurt yourself, Izzy!

Wait, no!

I have been under some serious

emotional stress lately.

Okay, well, then smoke a joint.

Oh, well, joints cost money.

And if I had a roommate
