Adam lashes out at Paul, believing his email he wrote to Sister Catherine the previous night, is why. So, he is suspended temporarily, rather than expulsed, for the students' safety. Sister Catherine is told by his mom and stepdad, of this and of the incident at his last school. When his mother finds out Adam has stopped his medication, she berates him. His work gets so much better that he writes an essay selected to be read at graduation. She accepts, and they have their first kiss. Then he asks Maya to prom, even though she's against it. Adam admits to having insecurity over his mother having another kid with Paul. At an outdoor screening of Maya's favorite movie, Never Been Kissed, where Rebecca and Joaquin encourage him to express feelings to Maya, the deep voice starts to prey on his insecurity. But, when Maya tastes what he made, it is far too spicy, which shows Adam the medication is affecting his tastebuds.Īfter having another psychotic episode during dinner with his mom, Adam stops taking the new pills. He comes to the restaurant where she works part-time to correct his homework, and she invites him to cook something there as a reward.
In a poor neighbourhood, once Maya realises he doesn't care, she continues tutoring him. Adam visits Maya's home when she doesn't turn up to tutor.
Maya gets caught by the school faking assignments and isn't expelled because she is so clever. He takes Maya out for food, but resists telling her about his condition, fearing she would no longer want to spend time with him. This reduces his visions with only the minor side effect of muscle twitching. Adam gets Maya to tutor him and finds she helps him feel better, so he takes his new medication regularly. There he meets Maya, a feisty, intelligent girl, who fakes other students' assignments for money, supposedly to help people. His three regular 'visitors' often come at stressful times: Rebecca (new age hippie), Joaquin (the smutty best friend) and "The Bodyguards" (over-protective and often violent), as well as the deep, 'dark' threatening voice, which represents Adam's fears of the unknown.Īdam is expelled and transferred to St.
His symptoms - chiefly hallucinating with three people and a scary deep 'dark' voice - worsen until he is put on a drug trial.
