Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds Prompt #4, Chapter #15

Throughout the novel, the drugged out attorney is constantly having violent reactions, but I never saw this coming. The narrator returns to his room after thinking about how to deal with the upcoming seminar. As he opens the door, he feels it hit what feels like a person. He finds out his attorney had an underage girl in his room who he drugged and took advantage of. "He was twisted. I could see that. And so was Lucy. HEr eyes were feverish and crazy. She was staring at me like I was something that would have to be rendered helpless before life could get back to whatever she considered normal." (Thompson 111) The attorney showed another side here. A criminal side, and a dangerous side. It was very surprising to see the attorney act like this. Being publicly violent was one story, but drugging and taking advantage of an underage girl was another.
