Into The Gravel Pit

- In this age of modern medicine,

you can accumulate quite a repair shop

in your medicine cabinet,

all kinds of marvelous prescriptions

to make you feel better.

If you drink enough,

alcohol will give you hangovers,

and what's more, it can even kill you.

- Hey, Jerry. - Jerry!

Scram!

- Some adults are not mature or strong enough

to stand the pressures of their daily lives.

He always goes back to it

until he learns how to handle his problems.

If you are a certain emotional and psychological type,

you may become dependent both physically and emotionally.

- Addiction to drugs may take control of a life.

The cause of this living death is a white powder,

innocent looking, but deadly.

- Some of the group therapy sessions,

where we will learn what former drug addicts have to say

about marijuana turning them on to hard drugs.

I got a better idea.

Let's take a Winston break.

That's it!

- All kinds of marvelous prescriptions

to make you feel better.

If your nerves are uneasy,

you can take something for them.

- A group of drugs called opiates

are classed as depressants.

An overdose causes unconsciousness, then death.

- Heather forgot she was driving a car

as she tripped out on the beauty of a back road nature trip.

So it is with a pothead.

The more he needs the escape from reality,

the more he is becoming emotionally dependent.

How does it feel?

Great.

That's why I do it.

- People have already decided for themselves,

and you, whether grass is good or bad.

What's most important is what you think.

Marijuana and cocaine

cause profound differences.

Like to smoke marijuana or take a shot of heroin

can lead to a lifetime of pain and torment.

- More and more and more teenagers

commit crimes while up on grass.

Cigarettes are much worse than pot!

And more will wind up

in trouble with the law

because of something done while they are high

on acid,

amphetamines,

barbiturates,

and end up on heroin.

- If you keep taking such good care of yourself,

who knows?

You may even kill yourself.

- Yoga is a dance controlled between surrender and emotions.

So, okay.

There are several ways you can control your emotions, right?

But exercise is but one of them.

So first, we're gonna get, ah, okay.

Deep breath in,

and out.

It's just you and your mind.

Good book?

It is, actually.

Why do you do that?

Do what?

- Pretend like you're reading that ridiculous book.

I am reading it.

Look, you don't have to take your anger out on me, Miley.

I'm sorry.

You never change, do you?

It's like a habit with you.

Well, it's like what Epictetus said,

"Whenever you're angry, it's not only the presence of evil,

but you've also increased the habit,"

so we all have our habits.

So did I tell you all the story

about my coworker at the office?

Hm?

The murder?

The murder.

He was a really cool guy, at first.

You know, he was a chill person, right.

But then,

I don't know,

he, he wasn't like anyone else.

Okay, anyways, let me, let me start.

Okay, so I mean, okay.

He had two kids that I know of.

I mean, I never saw them,

but he had pictures of them in his wallet, right?

Typical guy next door, right?

So anyways, okay, so yesterday, he was late to work,

which is unusual because he's usually early

and so I noticed that, and my manager, he called him,

but then he didn't answer, he left a voicemail,

but whatever, okay, not my business, anyways, okay.

So hours go by and he shows up, eventually, he shows up,

and then he, he was like, strange.

He gave off a weird vibe, you know, like not a good vibe.

Okay, so we go about our business.

He has a word with my manager, and then he comes up to me

and he says "They are dead, all of them."

So I'm like, "What the hell? Who's they?

Who's dead? What happened?"

I didn't say anything, I mean.

30 minutes later, the cops show up and he was arrested

and he...

He killed his wife and he killed his kids.

I don't know, like, like he was cool, he was chill,

but then he went crazy psychotic.

I don't know if he had a mental breakdown

or he was just going through something,

like problems at home, but it was like a switch.

Something switched.

It was like, um, like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, you know?

Okay, whatever.

So they did, I found out that they did a wellness check.

So the sheriffs went to their house,

because their kids missed an entire week of school,

so they show up and they bust in, not bust in,

but they bust in and they go in the house,

and there was a smell, it was a putrid,

like it was an aroma that can't be explained, right?

But they go in and...

The kids' bodies were propped up by the TV,

like propped up, right?

Their limbs, gone,

they were scattered throughout the kitchen.

They were in pots, they were in pans, they were everywhere.

Some were half-eaten!

And then, and then they go upstairs, and their wife,

his wife, his wife,

his wife was found

with her eyeballs and her boobs eaten off her.

It was, it was, I don't know, I, I didn't...

It was cr...

There was blood on the walls.

There was some writing on the walls with their blood,

and it was a gruesome

sight, yeah, it was terrible.

Yeah. I lost my appetite.

- Really? I think that made me hungry, actually,

You're sick.

But we're gonna have to do it,

if we want to meet up tonight.

Oh, I gotta finish my workout.

So lunch?

Yeah.

Hey guys, I'm back.

I'm just gonna show y'all another pose, okay?

- So tell us more about that coworker, were you dating him?

- God, no! Didn't I tell you he was a murderer?

Who are we murdering?

I vote my family.

- No, I was just telling Miley about my coworker,

the murderer.

Oh, careful what you're saying,

'cause people are listening

Here, I got this.

So what about this guy?

I told you the story, remember?

It's just crazy how we worked an entire week,

before he was arrested.

That maniac went to work all week?

Was he late the last day or something?

- Well, rumor has it that when the cops showed up,

he was eating them.

I don't know, I guess he snuck out the window

and the only place he could go to was work.

- See, corporate conditioning at its finest.

That's fucked up.

- Excuse me, I just don't have a connection.

I mean, I read this book about the shamans and the healers,

and they took this drug to transcendence together.

They just, they became synced, like as one.

I thought that's what we were doing?

I'm serious.

We should have our own adventure,

you know, tighten our bond.

What are you talking about?

We've known each other since fifth grade.

- Yeah, but we really haven't had like the bond,

since we drank the Boone's Farm in eighth grade.

That was a fun time, that's how we all got together,

just soapsy.

- Yeah, you know, I'm, I'm with Carter actually.

In fact, I know this guy at work

and he can get us something from the local tribe.

We all know what you're in.

Anyway, um, yeah, I'll hit him up

and see if he can get us something that'll take us places.

Yay!

Is this room big enough for her?
