Brown explains that crystal meth is extremely addictive, and that no matter what number he was told, the likelihood of someone overcoming an addiction is closer to eight percent. Caught up to the beginning of the film, Dr. David says he shouldn't have let Nic go to school, he wasn't ready - but Nic refuses any more treatment and runs away. Nic gets aggressive and denies it, but David realizes he's using again. The next morning, when the two young children get into a fight because Jasper thinks Daisy stole the money out of his piggy bank, David confronts Nic asking if he stole the money. When he next comes back home, he asks if he can borrow David's car in order to go to a narcotics anonymous meeting. He begins doing hard drugs again at school, his relationship falling apart. While at Thanksgiving at his girlfriend's, Nic finds pills in their bathroom and takes them. It goes well at first, and Nic even starts dating a classmate.
