After a series of critical setbacks, Dan decides to suspend all fictional sequences and tell the whole truth of his first year on the road. It's a confessional involving madness, car problems, money problems, anti-authoritarianism, red wine, Vicodin, dental surgeries, a clinical drug trial for an experimental OCD medication, dissociation, mistaken identity, and the discovery of what he's truly been running away from.
